Your today is my tonight. Mischele and I are driving to Frankfurt, having a cocktail, joining the American Consulate Obamunards at 10:30, and watching the results roll in through the night. After two nights of restless sleep, I am finally shaking off my panicky fears of a Republican nightmare. Mostly this is based on polling the students at school, on the theory that kids repeat what their parents tell them about candidates. At this school, it is 20 to 1 for Obama. Although this is an international school, many of the kids come from conservative banking and some blue-collar, military base families.
