A Renewed Sense of Self

Barack Obama made the single greatest speech of my lifetime tonight.
It made me cry.
It made me feel patriotic.
It made me feel proud of my country for the first time since right after September 11.
It also helped re-convince me I was right about him.
A lot of things lately had made me think twice. Things Obama has (hasn't) said. Talking with other people.
Don't get me wrong, Obama has been my choice over McCain since day one. But until tonight I felt like I was picking the lesser of two evils.
Now I feel like I'm picking the next President of the United States.
Barack Obama is my president.
And it makes me feel good inside.

Oh, and Joe Biden - best V.P. choice ever. He's one of my political heroes. Go Joe.
