I marvel at America sometimes.
A lawyer from Illinois, imbued with radiant personal charm and natural charisma but virtually no political experience (save two years in Washington) and only a short time in the national spotlight, gets elected to the highest office in the land (defeating a powerful senator with two other unsuccessful presidential bids under his belt) during one of the most turbulent eras in our nation's history.
But enough about Abraham Lincoln... =)

Did you dance in the streets of DC when victory was announced?
