A Few Reasons to Believe that this time is Different I'm optimistic. Of course we can't expect the politicians to solve our problems for us... But Barack Obama knows that too. This victory alone is not the change we see…
. . . candidates get when they lose. Comments on McCain sparked this, but I also remember watching Dole on Letterman after he was defeated and thinking he may have one if he acted more like that. Gore got a lot more fri…
