Obama Momentous

It is fantastically exciting to see Obama step up to the job. Its a triumph for the country. In a way its also a triumph for the much maligned Sixties. No Sixties, no Obama. This last administration was so depressing that one can almost feel a cloud lifting from the whole country. History is palpable--you can feel it in the streets. I don't now whether I am imagining things but people seem to be looking at each other in a different way. Obama's achievement is truly momentous already.
