What a historic moment: Barack Obama will be the next president of the United States. His margin of victory will probably be absolutely stunning — as I write this, he is routing McCain 338-15 in the electoral vote count. While his election to the highest office might be a national catharsis of a failed Bush administration, it is just awesome that Americans voted for someone based on perceived ability and not on the colour of his skin. The real work, though, begins when his terms starts in January 2009; the huge international goodwill towards Obama will surely help America.
