As the election results were tallied the night of November 4, 2008, our nation's heart beat began to weaken. On November 5, 2008, this nation was issued a prescription for its ailment. The name of that prescription was Hope, Faith and Determination! Now this is not a quick acting drug. Its a regimen that must be followed every moment of every day. As the days have passed, ever so slowly, we are seeing improvement in her heartbeat. The beat is a little bit faster and a little bit louder. Our dosage is being increased with every little bit of improvement that shows. Hope, Faith and Determination is going to heal our nation.
It is my honor and privilege to connect with and get to know the wonderful people I have during these horrific times. The sheer determination to "take our country back" by everyday, hardworking and caring citizens has been uplifting and inspiring to me. You all are the rays of light that illuminate my days.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You all give me "Hope", you give me "Faith" and you give me "Determination".

Ahhh, the election of 2008 ruined a few words for me, "maverick" and "hope" are at the top of the list. *sigh*

Hmmm Who said it better, Dylan Thomas or Bill Pullman?
