First, you have the fact that preceding me were former Speaker John Boehner, Chuck Todd, David Axelrod, and Karen Hughes. They all gave very insightful commentary on what lies ahead for our country after one of the greatest political upheavals of our lifetime. And following my remarks is the cocktail hour. That’s always appealing and perhaps even more so as we all try to digest what has happened. So yes, I am the only thing between you and the bar.
