Dick Durbin

He got us into this. Now he's finishing what he started.

"We see it in the eyes of the young people -- who work night and day, eat cold pizza, and sleep on the floor, because they want to believe. We see it in the faces of gray-haired volunteers -- who just one more time in their lives want to believe again."

That's the cross-generational magic at work. So many of us who thought we'd never dare to hope again are, cautiously, trying just one more time.

Let the brothers and sisters say: Amen.
