108. Let him tap us on the shoulder tomorrow and say, "I've got your back."
I did not watch "Going Upriver" before the election, but have watched it 4 times over the past weeks. It is awesome. The one thing I wish were true is that it contained Kerry's entire speech to the Senate Foreign Affairs Committee. "Upriver" doesn't include the part of the speech in which Kerry mentions war profits. Each time I have watched it I play the final scene over and over again -- the only scene in which we hear John Kerry at his current age. In it he is flying in a copter over Vietnam and saying that we still haven't learnt all of the lessons of Vietnam. Which lessons? International relations? Allowing companies that abuse their power to run our government? Which lessons?

I am guessing that tomorrow will be a small step -- a team of Kerry lawyers showing up at court in Ohio, instead of just McTigue. If this bums anyone out, I am just thinking this aloud, because if I keep my hopes in check I won't crash tomorrow. There've been lots of ups and downs in the past few days...
