Something happened in America last night I honestly didn't think possible.
After eight miserable, frustrating, wretched years of tyranny, lies, hypocrisy, ignorance, greed, corruption, and blatant contempt for those of us in the reality-based community, the American people overwhelmingly said, enough. The dark years are truly over.
Last night my cynicism melted away, and for the first time in an extremely long time I felt proud to be an American. We're looking forwards for a change, not back.
Regardless of how he successful he is as a President, Barack Obama's election is a milestone in American history, and I'm thrilled to have been part of it.
Sorry there's no quiz today -- check back tomorrow. Today is for celebrating.
