Morning in America All Over Again

The 1984 Reagan commercial, officially titled "Prouder, Stronger, Better," had, as its opening line: "It's morning again in america."  

It featured a montage of images of Americans going to work and a calm, optimistic narration that suggested the improvements to the U.S. economy since his 1980 election were due to Reagan's policies and asked voters why they would want to return to the pre-Reagan policies of Democrats like his opponent Walter Mondale, who had served as the Vice President under Reagan's immediate predecessor Jimmy Carter. -  Wikipedia [bold added]

If you replace Reagan with Obama, and Democrats with the Republicans in the above, it would aptly describe the arguments at the DNC these past few days.  They answered the question, "Are You Better Off Now?" with a loud YES, but also with a caveat of more work to come.
