Agreed. Bush left no positive inertia what so ever, to help McCain. The Repubs were doomed.

My candidate did not win. But, I am proud to know that the U.S. has progressed so far as to be able to elect a Black President. Obviously, it wasn't just the blacks voting for him. As McCain said, the people have sent a clear message. Change. I'm good with that. Clinton didn't kill us. Niether will Obama.

My biggest concern re Obama is his lack of experiance. He's a first term senator...now Commander in Chief, leader of the greatest nation on the planet. I am anxious to see who he surrounds himself with.

I'll give him the benefit of the doubt until he proves otherwise.
