A New Day is Dawned...

Congratulations, Barack Obama, for running one tight-ass race and delivering a resounding thump to the McCain campaign. I, along with Bug, volunteered for your campaign and let me tell you: the qualities that Obama displays - deliberate, thoughtful, organized, consistent - are the qualities that the entire campaign displays, on down to the volunteer coordinators in every precinct. Barack Obama moved me. And he has moved a nation. His life will never be the same, and very, very thankfully, neither will ours.

Congratulations also to Tina Fey, who I believe with my whole heart, influenced the voters by sharply impersonating Sarah Palin as a manifestation of what we all couldn't quite articulate. I'll let you fill in the blank.

I further congratulate John McCain for his considerable graciousness in defeat. He reminded me of the McCain I would have considered voting for in 2000.

And finally, congratulations to the American people. The way you voted makes me hopeful for the future. It's a tough job. He won't be perfect. But he'll work hard for you, because he - sit down now - cares about you. Thank you for caring enough to vote.
