Barack Obama's going to be the next President of the United States. But the road to getting there is never easy, and this great song captures an emotion that I hope all of Obama's supporters are feeling and will be feeling in the months ahead...
The lyrics are not 100% apt - Obama is hardly down - but, hey, they've been working great for a car commercial...
Thanks to the Electric Light Orchestra - ELO - for this song and video. The song was released in 1981. Jeff Lynne's writing and singing are right up there with the Beatles.
And the video itself is an excellent piece of work - with an uplifting message at the end about dreams merging into reality...

George Santayana had irrational faith in reason - I have irrational faith in TV.
