Originally posted by paleface101:So, how long before Obama does a Blair and breaks all our hearts? I remember the hope and joy of 1997, and look where that got us. This is a massive step forward for America (and hopefully the world), don't get me wrong, I just think that we're all used to politicians' bullshit and can't take anything at face value. My fingers are crossed, but I don't think he'll make that much difference.
Originally posted by notcomingdown:I am very happy this morning. I wondered what U2 song I may gravitate towards should Obama win. Maybe Beatiful Day or A Celebration. The truth is the most appropriate song title to describe all of this is Things to Make and Do. Today is a moment of great celebration for many reasons, but if Obama turns out to be a bad president none of this will matter. I am hopeful that he will be, and despite Republican claims that he is so liberal, I think he can and will be a consensus builder. To our brethren outside of the US, the ally you remember is back. To those who voted Mccain, give the guy a chance before you tear him down.

Obama isn't Blair. And while no man is perfect, Obama is the better choice to McCain's 'politics as usual'.
Proof? Remember when he said he was 'suspending his campaign' to go back to DC to work on the economy but he didn't? Remember his 'the fundamentals of the economy are strong', only to say the polar opposite hours later? That is not the sign of a leader with a grasp but one that is grasping.
It will make a difference. There is no perfect President or magic wand. But there IS a steadier hand guiding the ship. And that hand has a Congress and Senate that are ready to get down to work and repairing the 8 years of damage due to the Bush / Cheney administration.
Bill Clinton, while not perfect, was able to rectify 8 years of Reagan and 4 years of George HW Bush's economic and political folly. I trust that Obama will be able to lead us out of the last 8 years of George W. Bush failed foreign, domestic and financial policies.
As Bono has said during Streets on the Vertigo tour... The journey begins now.

What about when Obama thanked McCain for having fought that hard for his country? OMG... Such a great night it was for me... I was nervous at the beggining, but news were coming and coming and I felt HAPPY
