A New Hope
When I went to bed last night, I wondered what the morning would bring. Would it be like six years ago, where I and the rest of the country woke to a confusing maelstrom of hanging chads and recounts that marked our descent into nightmare?
No such fear. This morning’s news: Democrats take over the House (first time since 1994!); Senate hangs on Montana. Pelosi to become first female speaker of the House. Massachusetts: Deval Patrick, Democrat, becomes first black governor of the Commonwealth (but Proposition One allowing grocery stores to sell wine still fails in this Puritan state!).
Is the nightmare drawing to a close?
