"Won"Ohio?? More like the most disgusting & obvious case of voter fraud EVER!! If the voter fraud cases in Ohio, Florida, etc aren't addressed & a true accounting of ACTUAL ELIGIBLE VOTERS than just throw away having elections & go w/having the subversive, terroristic, criminal element run wild! Oh wait, that's what they ARE doing! Obama should NEVER even gotten to Nov.4 because he should have been made to produce a physical, verifiably authentic birth certificate, you can't even get a passport or register for school w/out one so how did he pull that off?? And sealing his records?? This guy is hiding SO MUCH it is TERRIFYING! WHY is he able to get away with it and how do we force a criminal to follow the rules of procedure?? The ballots from our Servicemen & Servicewomen abroad, lives on the line, these votes should be treated w/the utmost respect & vigilance - instead were "lost" that is sickening voter fraud & the 'Powers That Be' in all branches of the Armed Services should be going to the mat, raising holy hell to get their votes counted!
Save the Office of the President of the United States - hold it to the highest standard of behavior & character instead of these fools having sex in the Oval Office and subversives looking to make alliances with the worst dictators in the world right now!
Hitler was 'charasmatic', he promised everything Obama is, people loved him at first, look where he lead his country - he annihilated hundreds of thousands of native Germans!

Yep there is going to be change allright, but you people that voted for that one will not like it, next year at this time you will be crying in your beer, (if you can afford beer) but you people deserve what is coming.

Obama was greatly under-estimated from the start of his campaign until the finish by... fellow African Americans, Hillary Clinton, John McCain, Sarah Palin, and Joe the Plumber.
Now Clinton's jumped on the bus.
Now McCain's faced the reality and horror of what he allowed himself to become.
Now Palin's somewhere bitter in Alaska clinging to a wolf-killing machine gun and her wacky much-You Tubed religion.
Now The Plumber's finally decided to really be a "real American" and pay his taxes by winning a really real reality show competition.
Meanwhile, Barack Obama's accepting resumes.

"But only God knows."
I appreciate your admission. I also not how eager you are to put words into His mouth. I wonder if you ever thought that attempting to make your mind and attitude His mind and attitude might be highly disrespectful and profane, even with such caveats? Did you ever think that just maybe your to busy eating the snake's apples?

.... someone who has neither run a government nor a business to hold the highest office in our great land.
Looking forward to 2012.

Looking forward is always good!;)))

I'm not quite sure why you are trusting a man with a questionable background, questionable friends, friendly crooks in the Senate and someone who has neither run a government nor a business to hold the highest office in our great land.
Not all change is good change and this is DEFINITELY not good change.
I'm sorry for all of us who voted for McCain/Palin. The rest of you hard working American democrats will give what you (and I) deserve to those who don't. Looking forward to 2012.

You know, I can take EVERYTHING you said about Obama and say the SAME things about the current President--George Bush.
Bush and surely Cheney have very questionable backgrounds, they both started a war on lies, and in case YOU haven't noticed, this economy is in RUINS and the discourse in this country completely sucks, and for folks like ME who had to endure the last 8 years of a failed Bush/Cheney presidency and who had a cousin who came back from Iraq blind, this victory for Obama couldn't come fast enough for us! And you wanna talk about hard working Americans? Well now those at the TOP WILL have to pay their fair share of taxes and I say thank GOODNESS for that. Warren Buffet whose a BILLIONAIRE and richest man in the world said it's a shame His secretary pays more in taxes then HE does.
And finally the PROOF has been in the pudding the LAST 6 years, as Bush proved he had NO executive experience as he ran this country into the GROUND. Yeah, Bush sure bought HIS executive experience to Washington in 2000 alright. Yeah, some 'exeprience' Bush had....

Is this question a joke? Seriously? Who doesn't know that ACORN stole Ohio for Obama. Duh.

Duh.....
CONGRATS PRSIDENT BARACK HUISSEN OBAMA!

Ohioans, Virginians, North Carolinians, and several others - even in states McSame carried - took a cold long hard look at the caricatures the GOP was trying to pass off as authentic - a shallow shopping diva, a phoney plumber, phoney folksiness, disdain of learning, celebration of ignorance - and decided they want no part of it. No one is interested in being a dead beat drop out making a living working for the GOP machine. And all those barbs about community organisers struck home - it revved up the Obama campaign - and we decided to show the Rove fed ignorants what a real election campaign is. And that with some verr sharp rapid response margnalised the blowhards of talk radio and the gutter press - Limbaugh, the entire Townhall gang, Jerome Corsi etc., And of course ignorance hrts. So this web-powered roll out was simply too powerful to be countered with mere slime and sleaze. Palin 2012? Bring it on, and the Dems will win all 50 states. I am looking forward to an Obama-Palin debate. I am sure polar bears would be jumping with glee! Smart guys win!

freeenterprisechic,
This is what many people think about that, but now it's reality so we need to accept the truth and the truth shall set us free.
Please give President Obama a chance to prove his promises of CHANGE and we will see his gutz how he can tranform the country's economic problems.
Recession, unemployment, bankcruftcy, mishandling of Iraq issues, etc. etc. are now a big headache of President Obama.
Words can not tranforms all of these problems except the help of all American people and the cooperation of the entire world.

You know tbwhatever, if we talk about the word "GOD's will"? Millions of people doesn't know the real meaning of this word, why? Because God wants people to be holy and pure, but we see now a days how people understand this word.
God allowed or permitted President elect Obama to win in this election because as you said, He will open the pandoras box.
I mean, God will show the real truth on what's going on in America. Because most of the people sinned against God and their lives focus more on worldly things.
This is what Presidng Obama needs to address his first 100 days in OVAL OFFICE.
American people not all but majority are living in sins, if you named it you can not express all of it.
We need to accept the permission of our Almight God why Hon. Obama won in this election.
It's not by race but to open the pandoras box. The truth of American internal problems and world affairs.
Our prayers will help him to be more effective and effecient President, so he can do what our dreams in life to be fullfilled ONCE and FOR ALL!

Congrats President elect Obama, it's your turn now, so you need to prove to your fellow Americans your promises of CHANGE!
Well, let's see your gutz how you can transform your beloved country from bankcraftcy. And of course, your fairness dealing with foreign countries with dignity and respect to others.
You have 100 days honeymoon in the OVAL OFFICE and the whole world are watching and awaiting that something good to happen.
Remember, the world food organization released recently the 5 most hungered nations in the whole world? The need foods to feed their people, but the 1st world countries neglecting to help them. Only empty promises!
Most of the people either Americans or foreigners are defending on your dreams to transform the USA as a best example to lead the world NOT by power BUT wholeheartedly help to uplift the lives of the entire world.
Use your treasure to enrich the lives of other people and not to deprive their liberty and hope to live peacefully with foods in their tables.
GOD BLESS YOU!

First, I don't believe it was God's will that Obama won. God just allows things to happen. It could actually be God showing his vengence on this country. But only God knows.
Second, McCain didn't win because he didn't have folks who cheated for him be it the money that was raised (his campaign wouldn't release where all the money was coming from) and all of the non-illegal voters, Acorn, the dead people, the underage people, folks who somehow voted more than once, being able to vote with an affidavit and no ID. It is down right discusting that an election can't be won fair and square.
I can and will respect the office of the President, but I am going to have a hard time respecting a man who did not stand up and say "I want to win this election legally and will funds that are disclosed" and as well "Let me show you my birth certificate".
I'm tired of those running for office who can't stand up and be honest, truthful, open and about who they truly are, whether democrat or republican.

Aussie,
You seem like a nice person. Let me ask you, what is it about Obama's win that people are so happy about? I am curious.
Posted by: Keepyourheelsdown | Nov 5, 2008 10:13:52 AM
TO FIRST TIME OBAMA VOTER......congratulations on your victory. Now, because the election is over, don't just find other things more important to you. Frankly, I find that your man has overloaded his plate with people's wishes...and demands....that he will find difficult to fulfill. He was fortunate that his election came in the midst of tremendous social upheaval in this country....the times were ripe for his eloquence.....but, to be honest, I still have no idea whatsoever what Barack intends doing.......so I couldn't vote for him....he told me nothing....so, I just wrote in my name.

I'll be laughing when Obama's plan for "change" backfires on him...
Posted by: Katie | Nov 5, 2008 9:42:10 AM
I guess Joe the Plumber didn't have as much pull in Ohio as Republicans thought. I think Ohioans (as well as the rest of the country) saw the absurdity in the decisons made by McCain. The Palin selection, suspending the campaign, focus on negative campaigning, Joe the Plumber as symbol...all of these coupled with the country's desire for change doomed McCain.
