I stayed up til the wee hours of this morning to watch Obama's inaugural speech (It occured around 2:10am for me) and I must admit I was impressed and saddened at the same time. Impressed that you Americans are getting a leader who is inspiring and I hope he does great things for your country (so congratulations!) Also I was saddened, as Australian politics is in a pretty poor shape right now, which we substituted an aging Prime Minister who kept our economy in good working order for a dud PM. Shame. Where do I sign up to work hard to help a great nation?
