I really really like this line on PowerLine: “At a time when America's elites said that the United States was in an irreversible decline, and the rest of us should just get used to it, Ronald Reagan stood athwart what was then considered the tide of history and said: "No."”

And from the man himself: “Today we did what we had to do. They counted on America to be passive. They counted wrong.” (HT: Right Wing News)

Finally, here’s a great news and blogger round-up from Outside the Beltway.

Goodnight.
