I can't help thinking how it should have been President Gore standing there, how our letting an illegal Supreme Court decision pass was the beginning of the horrors we've been experiencing ever since. Some insist it was Gore's fault for not fighting it at the time, but I think it was our responsibility to see to it the man we elected took office, just like it has been our responsibility to see to it that the Constitution shredders in our government don't get away with it in all the years since. If we had insisted our Senators refuse to seat the Florida electors and impeach the Justices in the majority on Bush vs. Gore, which was an illegal decision, that would have been President Gore on stage to even more thunderous applause than he got the other night. I was watching, and it was louder than the applause that greeted Obama.
