I waited up until nearly 3am yesterday morning to see history pronounced. But, the networks were too timid to make the call (not a bad idea since they got it wrong in 2000 and 2004). I went to bed thinking some crazy rug pulling exercise was going to make my 5.30am wake up routine a nightmare.
Relief. Joy. Elation.
No rugs were pulled. No ridiculously close tallies to spark lawsuits. Just a simple mandate; “CHANGE”.
History was made and Hope is alive and well.
