Patrick: Obama win ‘inspiring’

By Jeremy P. Jacobs, PolitickerMA.com Reporter

Gov. Deval Patrick said Tuesday night that he is looking forward to working with President-elect Barack Obama, his close friend.

"I congratulate Barack Obama and Joe Biden on this historic and inspiring victory, and thank them for restoring hope to American civic life," the Milton Democrat said in a statement. "I look forward to working closely with them to heal and strengthen our nation, and to move forward our commonwealth's agenda on schools, jobs and civic engagement."

Patrick was in Chicago last night at Obama's election night celebration.
