A famous first lady once said that it was the worse possble time to become President but at least they had finally made it. There were gun turrents on top of the US Capital when he took the oath of office on that cold winter's day. But Eleanor's husband had made it to the White House....

Obama has a bar that has been set for him that seems impossible to meet, but maybe we need to set the bar that high on the off chance that Obama will meet and beat those expectations. Part of hope rests in going beyond what is merely expected and accomplishing the impossible. This is the time for the best and brightest; it is up to Obama to take the sword out of the stone and claim the mantle.

Unfortunately, the Obamas have lost their beloved Toot. We all send our condolences to the family, and know that she will be "watching".
