I was going to post about how Obama's victories in NC & VA (the GA senate race also) invalidated Tom Schaller's hypothesis about winning elections without the South , but then read the 1st paragraph of Maureen Dowd and this :http://www.nytimes.com/2008/11/06/us/politics/06family.html?hp
I thought about the fact that the Obama family will be living in the White House in less than 3 months. I thought about their new puppy running around, and was touched by the idea that Mrs. Robinson, Michelle's mother, might move in with them.
I usually think of the White House as an office with lots of meetings, but I'm hoping the Obamas are able to make it a home.
