So the election is over and we have a history-making president-elect. On the one hand, I'm excited because Obama inspires so many people to aspire to be and do so much more. On the other hand, I do not envy the situation he inherited and I have my doubts (as I always do) about how much change one man can truly effect. Especially since at the end of the day, I believe that politicians are politicians. Maybe I'm cynical, but McCain is someone who I always thought broke the politician's mold, and look how that turned out. Anyway, I was in NYC on Election Night and it was electrifying to see how passionate and excited people were--from the cab driver listening to election results on our ride in from LaGuardia, to the throngs in Times Square.
More than anything, I'm glad the election is over. I was getting really tired of it all. Good luck President Obama.
