Statement from President Obama: "Our work goes on.

The change we need won't come from one election alone – but it is a start. Last night, voters across the country started it. And I'm hopeful that going forward, we'll begin a return to the values we expect in our public life."

Also - I cannot wait for the 2020 DNC when President Obama gives the primetime speech (much like Clinton did for him to great effect in 2008/2012 (more so in 2012)).

Basically - I need more of the Obama's moving forward (things are much, MUCH better when they are communicating with the country directly).

my sentiments as well... I truly hope Democrats can maintain the resistance and keep fighting in even greater numbers... I fear the people who stop or slow down (as in 2010).
