He'll Keep Saying it Until We Hear

As I watched President Obama give his victory speech (*throwing out a fist bump to all*) last night, it was clear he was tired. But I have never seen him look more determined (those hand slaps on the side of the podium are the "tell&quot .

I thought is was one of the most powerful speeches I've ever heard him give. Of course that doesn't mean that he said anything we haven't heard from him before. But those of us who understand what he's trying to do know that he'll just keep at it until we get it. He's going to keep working to knock down those walls of cynicism and division...asking us to find our common ground as the basis for hashing out our differences, claim our citizenship, and sustain our hope.
