Yea, perhaps it's not good to be overly optimistic. It's just that we've had 8 years of sheer hell and it's hard with this talk of change that we so badly want not to be optimistic. I keep telling myself it'll take at least a full term to dig out of the tanked economy on top of the mess Bush has left us with. God know what other disasters Obama will find that we don't know about. frown Any "forward" sign IS encouraging and that's a good feeling.
