It is amazing, isn't it? People really are hungry for change, so hungry that when the President even talks about it, the crowd goes all in.

Now if they don't deliver on this stuff, I don't know what will happen.

I was thinking about Resistance's comment in response to your "The President will lead, but we have to do the work." He did not think it would happen. I don't know if he is right or not, but it made me wonder if we might have to outrun our President.

In sailboat racing, there is so much to think about and it is very technical (like chess except on a moving board with the possibility of seasickness.) Racers always say that when they do get into the lead, it is absolutely terrifying because they can't watch what the best sailors they know are doing, and use that information to eliminate some of the possibilities.

Obama is so smart. But if we need people we can trust to be out in front of him (assuming we'd be willing to get out there and give it a shot ourselves) who would we want with us?

Maybe worth thinking about and blogging on, someday.
