The United States' credit rating has been downgraded from a AA rating to a AA- rating. Egan-Jones is the rating agency that has made this decision.
The lowering of the United States to AA- marks the second time in the Obama Administration that the US has had its credit rating lowered. Mr. Obama is the only President in history to have the United States' credit rating lowered. Now it has happened again.

That actually is unexpected. I figured we were in for another downgrade if Obama won in November, but this early downgrade caught me by surprise.
