this is an amazing day

hate to tell you but obama prays to the same god you do......don't see congress passing legislation to outlaw guns.....not to mention recent scotus rulings.....

Maybe. But my preacher doesn't proclaim God damn America, and give the democrats a chance to flex their new muscle. They'll get around to the guns, and you'll see a rebirth of the fairness doctrine too.

Hang on. It's going to be a bumpy ride for conservatives.

In all seriousness, and in deference to -Cp, while I do not believe that Obama is the right man for the job, while I do not agree with the man's policies, the election of a Black man, even half Black, is historic. I never had a doubt that it would happen in my lifetime, I just wish it had been someone other than Barack Obama.

To -Cp: He is a minority in the sense that he looks like a Black man. That's where it begins and that's where it ends.

But he DOESN'T look like a Black Man...

ya'll are being duped... he's NO more black than he is white..

no worse than fdr......

i just hope the blacks and those with white guilt can let it go now and move on...let us not be judge by the color of our skin...someone had that dream

[-Cp]

he ain't a european american.....

tradgedy is he can't win now...he inherits the worst economy in 70 years and a war on two fronts.......

Are you saying his mom's ancestry isn't from Europe?

[Hull]

no worse than fdr......

I think comparing democrats from that era to the ones today is like night and day.

I hear what you're saying, -Cp, and I don't disagree with you. The truth is, though, he really doesn't look like you or me or McCain or Alex Trebek. For most folks that is all that matters and that is all it takes to qualify the man as a minority.

[-Cp]

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Hezbollah, Hamas, and ironically Jews, are praising Allah! for the Obama win!

lets figure out how we can get our share of the free money!!

are you saying his dads isn't from Africa. There are very few true blooded Europeans or Africans in this country now. A lot of mixing has been going on since slave times.

setting aside what obama may do.....

the us just elected a minority to the presidency.....wow.....just wow....

to think this country once treated people like obama as property and now he is the comander in chief......

all i can say is i hope he does a good job....he has a huge weight on his shoulders...

He CAN'T mess, he really can't. Yeah, he's gotten this far, but the problem with being the first, you set the tone for everyone that comes after you.

Well, I knew my candidate wasn't gonna yank this one out, but it's nice to see such a clean cut victory, either way. If it had been really close, it would have simply created more venom, whereas with a clear victory acknowledged by both sides, it means that we can move forward.

With the Dems now have the Executive, as well as control of the Senate out of tonight's election, it is all on them. Whatever happens, they cannot complain about being outmanned or outgunned.

On the Republican side of the aisle, this loss spells out the problems within the party. They have strayed too far from the ideals, and it finally stung them like it needed to. Hopefully, the next four years sees them getting their shit together, and getting back to talking about conserving, as well as the power of the Republic, as opposed to the president.

cool, first time america has had a non natural born citizen as president since the law said so

well i guess when obama rolls out his new deal I and new deal II and a gaggle of social programs then you can say gee you were right till then.....i guess you are.....

Maybe now they'll start listening to Limbaugh. He tried to tell them how to win.
