Grant Park Revisited

.
Obama Wins!

T
hose of us who remember the other Grant Park, the Grant Park of 1968 and all the pain of that era look at Grant Park now, at the faces with tears of streaming joy, and we say yes, 40 years in the wilderness has brought us to this time.

Now, let's roll up our sleeves... the hard work begins.

Sandy, I thought about you as I watched the Grant Park celebration, remembering that you were there in '68 fighting for a voice for the people who flooded the place last night. We always knew we could change the world. We didn't know it would take this long, but now we realize that nothing worthwhile comes without a fight. Thanks for sticking to your guns all these years, woman. Now let them hear us roar. YES WE CAN!
