Because this election is about hope beating fear, because this election is about competence beating incompetence, investing outperforming gambling, rationality triumphing over impulse, ideas mastering emotions, action outwitting reaction, tomorrow l’ll be humming one song. I hope you’ll join me.
We’re not arriving in the promised land. There are no utopias. There are mountain-high challenges ahead. But if Obama wins tomorrow, it is a good thing. And even if Obama were to lose tomorrow, enough torches have been lit to set the America’s ideals aflame for the next generation. We can do better and we will do better. Deep in my heart I do believe. We shall overcome some day.
