This morning I stopped by the neighborhood coffee joint to get a couple of iced coffees for Sabrina and myself. While I was there I ran into a friend who has been a Hillary supporter. He and I have talked many times about this election and I know his fears have been that Obama would come under heavy attack in the general election.
So today we had a brief conversation about the election. “Obama had a good night last night…” yada yada. At the end of the conversation I said something to the effect of “I am confident the Dems will come together and give this all we’ve got. I think we can do it.”
As he replied “Yes we will” a look of recognition came over his face. A smile came across his face as he repeated the now iconic refrain “yes we will”. It appeared to me as if at that very moment he became an Obama supporter.
The battle cry has changed. We are now not only assured and convinced that we “can”; we know that we “will”.
Let’s do this!
