It was the maybe annual? Favorite People of 2008. It was great to laugh at Keith Olbermann's Sarah Palin and Saturday Night Live's political skit montage. But at the beginning, there was another montage, one about, of course, the man of the year, President-Elect Barack Obama. And, I'm sorry. Thinking about his election and everything it means - for me, this country, and its people - still makes me tear up, well over a month later. This election brought laughs, tears, and frustration, but ultimately, what it gave was, yes - hope. It's absolutely been the highlight of the year, and I may look back on it in a post soon.
God bless this country.
