Dear President Obama,

Congratulations! It's was a tough fight, but you did it. Your message of hope, change, and putting this country right with the rest of the world won the day. Some very deep Bush fatigue re: the war and the economy helped a lot too.

I know you're anxious to get to work, but let's take a minute to reflect on how this all came down, and why your message was so resonant....
