Tonight

Maybe tonight we go to sleep believing that democracy - this democracy - has a chance.  Maybe tonight we go to sleep believing that organized people, purposeful people, can move elected representatives to choose the common good.  Maybe tonight we go to sleep believing we have a President who sees good government as a tool of good democracy.  We can stop banging our heads against the wall.  We can stop resenting "Washington" like it's another name for cancer.  Maybe tonight we go to sleep believing that tomorrow's another day to fix things, another opportunity to change our country and the world.
