Barack Obama is considering a run in 2008, reports The Washington Post. The Senator made the statement on this morning's Meet The Press. 
That sound you hear is a collective shout across the country: "Where do I sign up"?
It seems to me that the country as a whole is ready for a fresh start; certainly, that's what the death spiral of the extreme right seems to be indicating. Senator Obama just might provide that fresh start for the White House. The Senator does seem a bit more appealing than the tired retread that is John McCain, or the manifest extremist failures represented by Mitt Romney, Sam Brownback or, God forbid, George Felix Macaca Allen.
