You're not dreaming.

5. Pinch me. Is this for real? It is right. It's happening. It's actually

happening.

6. Damn! That sounds good! Can't wait to hear Bush say it!

[VolcanoJen]

7. SIX YEARS OF DU AND FINALLY!!!

I'm just sayin'.

Finally. :-)

8. Forget me saying. I want to hear THEM say it.

The remaining republicans left will have to swallow their pride and acknowledge Nancy Pelosi, whom they hate so unreasonably, as their speaker.

That just makes me giddy.

14. Send Flowers!!

I still think we should arrange for a huge delivery of flowers ala Barbara Boxer when the Congress reconvenes. This is such a gigantic step for our country and for women in government.

I'll happily contribute.

15. You helped make the dream a reality, Will.

Thanks for all your inspiration and hard work. Now, this coming January, we will get to hear those blessed words preface the State of the Union address.

Are you as high as I am?
