Thanks, JDN...The email that Edward McDonnell III wrote gives me chills...and I'm sure it did for anyone who reads it. It captures some of the moment of yesterday, and hope for tomorrow...

JDN, thank you so much. I emailed your friend's message of hope and promise to a number of pro-Iraq and pro-Bush friends. Also, just in case, mailed it to the powerline blog feedback address. Just maybe, they will post it for thousands to see.

I have a feeling that the people in Iraq were encouraged by the successful recent elections in Afghanistan and Ukraine. Not to denigrate the wonderful feeling of being free for the first time in most of their lives, but watching the success of others must have given them the feeling that democracy works. If Afghanistan and Ukraine had turned out badly, surely that would have discouraged them. So now that's three in a row -- who's next?
