I've been thinking about what I wanted to post - I think I'm still at a loss of words, but I wanted to post something just to commemorate. I also wanted to step back and note the bitter irony of the increased African-American participation being a factor in the passing of Prop 8, which was couched in the same language and frame as the anti-miscegenation laws a scant few decades ago. Lastly, I'm also amazed at many of the razor thin margins, both in national and local races. It certainly gives me pause, even as I appreciate the celebrations that have been going on around the nation.
We certainly have a lot of work to do.

The Obamamercial
Had some trepidation, but turned out to be very worth watching. A great job by David Guggenheim.
Along the lines of political ads, Errol Morris' new series of ads is also great. He's also written a great history of "real people ads" in political capmaigns.
