A Front Seat for History

Election '08 is finally here. And Obama is, right now, in the lead. He's winning the cities; McCain is taking the counties But me thinks Obama will take the crown with ease...he's taking too many states that have been Red for at least a decade. I have been at two different parties -- one on the Upper West Side; another on the Upper East. All are eager for Obama to get on with the job of running this country (although he has a rather difficult task ahead of him sorting out this mess of an economy).
