What a momentous event! I think Barack Obama will do his best to be a remarkable president, and I couldn't be happier to have my kids see this man elected to office. The first black president of the United States! This is so big, regardless of political party. "Historic" seems too tiny a word, somehow.
John McCain's concession speech was entirely gracious. I wish we could have seen more of that side of him during the campaign. He is an extremely intelligent man, and it is possible that in another climate he would have had a better chance for the presidency.
I would hope, as both President elect Obama and Senator McCain do, that all Americans can work together in support of our new President and the strengthening of our country. We should all pray together, too, for the safety Of Barack Obama and his family while in the White House.

This image of Barack and his family was one of the most striking to me last night. It will be wonderful to see these little girls grow up in the White House!
