I guess Im not suprised, George W Bush's farewell address.

He had the misfortune to make that address on a night that was filled with the sounds and sights of the Miracle on the Hudson.

I think most people were caught up with that, rather than poor George.

Very good point. I watched the speech tonight on Youtube.

[Edwina's Secretary]

Too funny!

Too funny!

It is.

I heard a little of his farewell speech on the radio, but not enough to be able to comment on, to be fair. It feels like much of the world is holding its breath waiting for Tuesday, and I don't know that any one human being could live up to the expectations people have, but I am - as I am my mother's* daughter - cautiously optimistic.

I don't remember any previous Presidents' farewell address either, though.

*Ma was the most optimistic person you could ever hope to meet. The "cautious" part of that sentence is from Dad's side of the gene pool.
