A silver lining in the presidency of Barack Obama. From the New York Times:

Among the many reverberations of President Obama’s election, here is one he probably never anticipated: at least 32 African-Americans are running for Congress this year as Republicans, the biggest surge since Reconstruction, according to party officials.

Mr. President, if your elitist, condescending Leftism has inspired more liberty-loving (as opposed to government-loving) blacks to run for Congress, I wholeheartedly thank you.
