I've never been a very political person, but this election captured my heart and mind in a way no other has. Maybe it's the mom thing. Maybe I'm just finally a grown up now. I've envied the people who felt like their voting decision was clear cut. Mine was not. It took a long while and a whole lot of education and thought to come to my decision. I am a Republican, but I voted for Obama. Still, I have a great deal of respect for John McCain. I cried when I watched his concession speech. He remains a man of great character in my book. What a post, Dana.

But I'm proud that you made an informed vote. Ultimately that is what matters and what makes the country great. I am looking forward to those of us on all sides coming together now and joining in to do the hard work of creating change.
