You are not the only one. I am in a state of disbelief right not. Obama has more character flaws than any other candidate who has ever run for prez. Yet, the electorate doesn’t seem to care.

McCain, a national hero, is losing to a marxist black man. Wow, how America has changed.

The American electorate has not cared about its president's character for a long time. LBJ won a landslide, Richard Nixon and Bill Clinton each won two terms despite glaring character flaws in all of them.

This wasn’t about McCain. It was about Bush and Republicans in general. Obama won by virtue of not having anything to do with Bush and not being a Republican. It wasn’t an intentional vote for socialism. I really feel that most weren’t paying enough attention to what Obama was saying to know what’s in store. When they find out, Republicans will be back, and maybe this time with even more of a libertarian stripe and a lot more sucess in progressing with our agenda.

This is not a loss, but merely a setback.

People only seem to be interested in what a candidate can ‘give’ them, freebies, etc. I cannot believe this radial won over a war hero. What the hell is wrong with people???
