People are dooming this guy from the start. He doesnt have a chance! Its real shiety when Americans hope the President elect does a bad job just to prove themselves right.
I had to turn off Fox news today because they were predicting all the bad the guy is going to do.
I hope we us Americans have turned a corner. My hope is black people will realize that the "white man" isnt trying to keep anyone down. We have showed the rest of the world that Americans are diverse and are fair. Good things can come of this!!!
Ok let the bashing start,lol
BTW I didnt vote Obama but he is going to be our President. I will support him until he gives me a reason not to. Lets hope that hes the guy to get us out of this mess!
IMHO, I think that the Black Population keeps them self down by calling attention to them self's as a result of being stereo typed by themselves. The N.A.O.C.P dose more hurt than good just like the Civil Liberty Lawyers DO !
Hello ? The ink wasn't even dry on Prop 8 and its already in court ?
The Majority spoke and it's not good enough !!!
Gay Riots in L.A. And Mayor Nut sum of S.F sounding like some Braying Jack ***.
Some of what Dick Morris a Democrat had to say today:
If ever there was an election that was not worth winning, it was the contest of 2008. While it was hard-fought on both sides, had McCain won, it might have spelled the end of the Republican Party. As it is, the party is well-situated to come back in 2010 and in 2012, if it learns the lessons of this year.
Simply put, all hell is about to break loose in the markets and the economy. The mortgage crisis will likely be followed by defaults in credit card debt, student loans and car loans. We will probably be set for two years of zero growth, according to economists with whom I talk. And the federal efforts to protect the nation from the worst of the recession will probably lead to huge budget deficits and resulting inflation. We are in for stagflation that could last for years.
Had McCain won, he would be the latter-day Hoover, blamed for the disaster that unfolded on his watch. Now it is Obama’s problem. With the Republicans suffering a wipeout in congressional elections (although not as bad as they feared), the ball is now squarely in the Democratic court. Good luck!
If Obama raises taxes, the situation could get even worse. With a liberal Congress on his hands, he will be constrained to move to the left, if he needs any pushing. When Clinton was elected in 1992, the Democrats in control of Congress gave him a clear message: Either you govern within the four walls of the Democratic caucus or you won’t get our support. Crossing the aisle to get Republican votes, even including the GOP in negotiations, was a no-no for which the president would pay dearly if he transgressed.
The result was predictable. Moderate initiatives like welfare reform were scrapped, the Congress passed tax hikes and legislation became festooned with liberal amendments. Faced with the need to round up every last vote in the Senate and House Democratic caucuses, Clinton had no choice but to load up conservative bills like an anti-crime measure with liberal pork (like a provision for midnight basketball courts in urban areas) to get unanimous caucus backing.
Obama will have to move left to appease his caucus. He will become their hostage, and they his jailers.
This dynamic will produce extreme-left-wing governance, which the Republicans can blame for the continuation of the recession and for any worsening. The party will recover, fed by anger at Obama’s policies, and will emerge from this defeat stronger than ever.

Perhaps many republicans and conservatives still have a bitter taste in their mouths remembering how President Elect Bush was treated by the vast majority of democrats, CNN and MSNBC.
Maybe many of the liberal Hollywood elite can move back to the United States now!
Lets us hope President Obama is given a more gracious welcome than President Bush received.
I believe no matter what political affiliation we may lean whether liberal, conservative or independent, we have an obligation to put America first and show respect for our country and to our president.
