Change is coming

"Let me offer an advance warning to the old, big spending, do nothing, me first, country second Washington crowd: change is coming."

I natt höll republikanernas presidentkandidat John McCain sitt anförande vid konventet i Saint Paul. Talet var oerhört bra, välskrivet och framåtsyftande. En av de få markeringar som gjordes mot demokraternas kandidat Barack Obama gjordes på ett mycket elegant sätt: "I’m not running for president because I think I’m blessed with such personal greatness that history has anointed me to save our country in its hour of need. My country saved me. My country saved me, and I cannot forget it. And I will fight for her for as long as I draw breath, so help me God."



"You know, I’ve been called a maverick; someone who marches to the beat of his own drum. Sometimes it’s meant as a compliment and sometimes it’s not. What it really means is I understand who I work for. I don’t work for a party. I don’t work for a special interest. I don’t work for myself. I work for you."
