"There is a new wave of change all around us-
and if we set our compass true,
we will reach our destination-
not merely victory for our party,
but renewal for our nation.
And this November,
the torch will be passed again
to a new generation of Americans.
And so with Barack Obama -- for you and for me,
for our country and for our cause-
the work begins anew,
the hope rises again,
and the dream lives on."
