As you may have read – I’m in Nashville tonight for a photography convention, and damn good fun it’s been. It’s also been an amazing night being here in the US during the most historic election in recent history. I don’t “do” politics – I live in the USA, I pay my taxes, but they won’t let me vote for another 2 years or so…so to avoid any tension I generally stay away from political debates…however….GO OBAMA!!!I honestly feel that Obama is going to push America forward in a great new direction…something that has been lacking for the last 8 years. Of course, everyone in England thought that Tony Blair would do that for the UK, and look how that turned out eh? Still, this guy LOOKS like President, SOUNDS like a President, and can pronounce nuclear…it’s got to be a step up. The excitement here in America is spine tingling, and I’m so happy to have been here and seen it happen. Best of luck to the new President. As a side note – it’s worth pointing out that after a very nasty campaign, John McCain’s concession speech was honest, heartfelt, and showed true honor. Mike.
