Time to tease the dogs a bit?
----------
I got stuck in Brazil on a business trip ran long, but Texas was in the bag for McCain anyway. However, my wife got in and out in 10 minutes at about 11 AM - said it was easy. With a four hour time difference, I had to stay up LATE to see the speech, and I was also impressed with Obama not sugar-coating the situation. Ever since Ronald Reagan, we've had presidents who would proclaim some sort of morning in America while sometimes at odds with the facts. I sense a more sober debate coming. But I'm curious when we'll start seeing the religious right´s attack e-mails.
Obama will try to build some consensus. Hopefully the retirement of John Paul Stevens doesn´t come too soon as that will surely stir up some partison rancor.
