Monday morning

This is a special Monday. Why? Because is before Tuesday November 7. All Mondays come before a Tuesday, so what makes this one different? Why is November 7 a different Tuesday?...Mid-Term Elections!
Mid-Term is a time term that gives the impression of a bench mark, a bench-mark indicating the direction of the whole process, in this case the progress of the evolution of a political organization. Our Country. Many changes are being sought but the idea that the changes are going to occur on Tuesday is in a way misleading because the change has already occurred. What is coming is the aknowledgement of the change, manifested on a ballot count and the certification of a winer in the race. Who ever wins an incumbent or a challenger will represent a change. Even incumbents are campaining as candidates of change, candidates of no rubber stamping the official agenda. Incumbents that either belong to the opposition party or present themselves as renegades of the extreme policies that their party represent.
It will be interesting to see how we are going to digest this change.
