About a year ago, Maggie O'Sullivan told me Barak Obama would be the next president.

I scoffed. Her optimism was adorable, but I just didn't think America was enlightened enough to make such a stride, to pick a president based on merit over skin.

Today, I tip my hat to Maggie. Never, never in all my years, have I been so happy to admit I was wrong and the youthfully optimistic Maggie was spot on.

Faith in the better angels? Noted and renewed.

Thanks, Maggie. Thanks, America.

Thank you. Very much. I had the audacity to hope.
