been a tireless public servant for so long, and that goes for Big Dog as well. I hope they're enjoying the grandkids. Unlike some, I'm not worried about Hillary and Obama keeping a low profile, they've earned a good long rest. This is a chance for new leadership to emerge. Leaders like Barack Hussein Obama, who came out of nowhere to inspire an entire generation. Leaders like Hillary who, despite her loss, has inspired women across the political spectrum to run for office.

I remain hopeful even in the face of the Orange Turd.
