Thank god for the netroots.
As many of us know, America's economic future and social make up is going to be determined by the choices of the next governing majority. With the necessary structural reforms, we'll be able to rebuild America into the peaceful and prosperous middle-class republic that it once was. If we can't manage to fix the flaws in our system and hang on to power, we're in for a bumpy ride.
The task we're facing is enormous. We've got to change the way the average American relates to government, and we've got to clean up one hell of a fiscal mess. We've also got to defeat a new generation of bush-inspired fanatics (Christian/Muslim) who are going stop at nothing to subvert the democratic process.
We're privileged to be living at a defining moment in the history of America and of western civilization. We're in for one hell of a fight, but I'd say our chances are better than even.
