An End to a Reign of Error

Midterm elections in the United States have never really garnered much importance.
But history books will write that 2006's has grabbed everyone's attention.
The United States, and indeed the whole world, breathed an audible sigh of relief when the elections ended with the Democrats on the ascendant.
One hopes that Republican hubris has been replaced by Democratic modesty and pragmatic enthusiasm.
Republicans and Democrats are the 2 sides of the same coin, so one really hopes that now having made history, the Democrats would now go on to make progress, on a bipartisan level.
Word has it that it's going to be a Hillary/Obama presidential tag team for 2008.
It would be unprecendented to say the least to have a woman run for President and her Vice-President an Afrian American.
But that's the redeeming quality of modern democracy. Its enduring ability for self-correction.
