Do yourself a little favour: Get a recording of the Obama victory speech. Store it. And if you ever think that all hope is gone play it.
It was a fine speech. Uplifting with a sense that there may be real change globally. The thing that impressed me about the speech was not the rhetoric of victory but the honesty. It is not as he rightly admitted all going to be plain sailing and that there will be many false starts but I think America now as a president who is of the people and one of the people.
There is hope after all. How much hope we'll know in about four years time I guess.
