So
much distrust of our political establishment is eroding our nation's
self-confidence. After 8 years of Bush - 8 years not knowing what it
might mean if we got that knock at the door at 3 a.m. - we have given
an overwhelming mandate to our President and to the Democrats.
We
spoke truth to power. We exercised the highest form of patriotism
through political dissent and opposition to Bush. We have done our
jobs, and we won. Now is the time for us to trust our leaders; let us
go blindly into that good night, confident that we have placed in power
those who have the good common sense to make these difficult decisions
for us.
