Obama makes my day

I've been feeling quite blue over elder-care issues—my mom in the hospital with a fractured knee, compression fractures in her spine, dementia, and concerns about her returning to the apartment she shares with my dad 3,000 miles away from me in San Francisco—but every time I think about an Obama presidency I just brighten right up! McCain may have been correct in saying the outcome of the election had special significance for African Americans, but it had special significance for a lot of white people too.
