It's only taken 8 years.
Yes it's a happy day. America has seen the light.It's only taken 8 years.
Aw. Don't ruin the moment. *sniff*Now Obama gets to spend the next 4 years trying to make a dent in Bush's mess. What a task.......
You're assuming that any politician has the least amount of intelligence, and a desire to do right by the Republic when they don't.Any president that tries to change the old boys club will take fire from both sides...the lobbyists are well ensconced and will not go quietly... they''ll cling on like grim death himself....... Obama should ask McCain to be on his staff and to personally handle this.... a plus for both I'd wager......
I don't see the US tearing itself apart.I guess I'll do like the rest of the world..watch the US heal itself or (more probable) tear themselves apart.........
I agree with most of your post..SHE is what shot McCain down, but his speech was very impressive...unfortunately he never showed that side of himself during his campaign he had to play " badass." and look where it got him. Bet she's cryin in her cheerio's this morning.............1st task...impeach bush.......
I must point out that I was very impressed by McCains speach and praise for Obama..that was/is the side that McCain would have won with if the right puppet masters (roves rovers) would have helped him instead of bringing that female hitler to be his sidekick..Mr. nice guy was sunk by a Woman (???) that could smile and joke while people in front of her called for the death of a fellow citizen
In all seriousness if he'd have been the McCain he was last night with a hand out instead of a backhand he'd have won..... What the party wanted him to do wasn't him... He listened to them, so he must live with the fact that he wasn't strong enough to be himself and was happy to be played...thats a shame for a man of his caliber..I agree with most of your post..SHE is what shot McCain down, but his speech was very impressive...unfortunately he never showed that side of himself during his campaign he had to play " badass." and look where it got him.

He didn't inherit the disaster, he was one of the people who had a hand in the downfall of the economy. This bum walked hand in hand with the very same criminals who profitted off of the mortgage scandal. This short sighted con man voted for the bailout.Sorry, I just feel kind of bad for him, he inherited a fucking disaster.
He's said over and over that he will do as much as he can to remove the lobbyist influence from DC. He's refused to accept any campaign money from lobbyists.You're assuming that any politician has the least amount of intelligence, and a desire to do right by the Republic when they don't.
And Obama is not going to do right by the republic. He is going to do right by the government, and by the lobbyists who seek more tax exemptions and more loopholes so they can escape untaxed.
Trouble is, if he'd been the man he was last night and in 2000, he'd have been an Obama Lite: not much to differentiate himself except that he isn't nearly as inspiring. He probably would have been like that if he had run against Hillary, and he may even have won. But I'm glad it didn't come to that, it would have been a lesser-of-two-evils election for me at least, and I probably would have voted Libertarian again.In all seriousness if he'd have been the McCain he was last night with a hand out instead of a backhand he'd have won.....

Aw, are you sad Ron Paul didn't win? Don't worry, Obama will be a good president. You'll see; you don't have a choice now.He didn't inherit the disaster, he was one of the people who had a hand in the downfall of the economy. This bum walked hand in hand with the very same criminals who profitted off of the mortgage scandal. This short sighted con man voted for the bailout.
Neither one of the two main candidates is fit to run a carwash much less a nation based on the founding fathers principles.
All this talk about being proud of America for voting for a black man is garbage. How about electing a qualified person who wants the interests of the PEOPLE over the corporation$ no matter the skin color. Hell I'd settle for an alien right now over McCain or Obama or most of the clowns in Congress.
