I couldn't let the election pass, without posting just a short entry, about some of my personal thoughts.  Clearly, political discussions with clients, are dangerous places to go, these days.  I was a passionate supporter of Barack Obama.  Without getting into a political discussion that is too deep for this forum, I feel that the party in power for the past 8 years, has been incredibly irresponsible.  I thought that yesterday represented so much of what makes the United States, such an amazing country.  I thought that McCain's concession speech was fantastic.  I think the election was, obviously, one of historic proportions.  I think that the election of Barack Obama will improve our standing in the world.  I am hopeful that following the election, we will be able to come together, as a country, so that we can get to work trying to solve the incredibly difficult challenges we face.  I had tears in my eyes last night, watching the various celebrations take place, around the country, trying to understand what Barack's election must mean to those who were so opressed, not all that long ago.  Whether or not you supported his candidacy, his election clearly represents a historic positive, for our country.  I pray that Barack Obama will be up to the challenge. I am extremely optimistic about his presidency.
