Congratulations to the Democrats & Guilty White People
I offer my congratulations to the Democrats & the Guilty White People that voted for Obama. I predicted long ago that Obama would win, and win handily with > 350 electoral votes. As it stands right now, he has 349, with NC and Mizzurah still to be decided.
I'm disappointed, but not shocked. It's not like I wanted McCain to win - a win by him would mean that the Republicans and faux conservatives could point to a McCain victory and say "See? We won the Presidency - our way works!". Hopefully this means that those of us that believe in Reagan conservatism will be able to convince those "Republicans" that our way does work. Every time people run and govern as a conservative, good things happen for the country. It's those times where they get power hungry and spend like drunk sailors and go away from the conservative principles where we get into trouble.
So congratulations, President-elect Obama. You now have at least 4 years to show what you're all about. No more excuses. You have the Presidency, the House, and close to a filibuster-proof Senate (as it stands right now, Republicans have 44 seats. That could change to 40 any time....I believe GA, MN, AK, and OR have not been called). Even so, it wouldn't be hard to convince non-conservative Republicans such as Hagel, Chafee, and yes, McCain to go along with Democrat wants and desires.
So do what you will. I wonder if I will be able to blog from the re-education camp?

I hope our families bunk together in the camp, shebuii.
Well put.
Personally, I'm an eternal optimist so I'm in the hopes that this will, in some way, help race relations in the U.S.
That being said, you can bet your arse that I will be there, questioning everything, pointing out the lies and misdirection. I'm sure there will be a ton of it, despite the "change."
"Change" has already begun, with the naming of Rahm Emanuel for Chief of Staff, and other Clinton WH stalwarts about to be named to other posts.
Sure is a changin' wind blowing through Washington, isn't it?
