I know today was a great day. And, believe me, I wanted to wait at least one day, but I can't. While we are celebrating and talking about final tallies and recounts, I have heard too many reports that people like Gates and Petreaus intend on sticking around. I heard Dr. Dean think it 'a wonderful idea' for Republicans to be in Obama's cabinet. I even suffered through Thomas Friedman claiming that the Civil War is finally officially over, apparently 148 years after it started.
I must register my objection to including any Republicans in Obama's cabinet; however, in the spirit of cooperation and conciliation, I understand it as a symbol of Obama's graciousness. If it happened to involve either of the Senators from Maine, then so much the better.
More on the flip side....
