I haven't noticed this anywhere on the site. If it's here and I missed it, I'll delete.
Les Miserables isn't the greatest example of musical theatre. But an anthem like this is hard not to like, even in its original context. Now transplant it into the Obama campaign office and suddenly it's brilliant. And funny.
Of course, as some of the commenters observe, Les Mis doesn't end very well for the student revolutionaries. You kind of have to forget about the context and just go with the sense of uplift.
Not much of a diary, but I wanted to make sure this gets seen.
