1. Everything will be different, nothing will be different.
"Look for me at sunrise for the turning of the tide."

Nothing will appear to be different when the tides turn, but turn they have.

2. No, but everything being different will have gotten one hell of a jump-start.

4. I am not so much thrilled that Obama will be the President.
Unlike many, I am not expecting instant gratification and great and sudden changes toward a truly better society. I would love to see universal health care, nationalization of the oil companies, the end of corporate person hood and the Bush crime family on trial at the Hague but frankly, none of this is going to happen and I think a lot of folks are going to be disappointed that we won't get a huge paradigm shift.

On the other hand, I am absolutely ecstatic that the gigantic shit stain that has been in power will not be able to do anymore damage than they have already done. Mind you, I don't think we know even an inkling of the true damage and I'm sure it will take years just to figure out how bad they have really fucked this country and the world but...Tomorrow it stops.
