Congrats Obama!

Congratulations to our next President Barack Obama. Either candidate would have been a welcome replacement over the current administration—I believe the most fiscally self-defeating in our history. Unfortunately, both candidates supported handing a $700B blank check to the Treasury Department to bailout Wall Street. But Obama won over McCain with an attitude of hope, change, unity, and without the mudslinging campaigning that has come to dominate politics over the last few years.

Obama outspent McCain on negative ads. Most of the media pretended not to notice because they were in the tank for him. McCain was the most independent, anti-washington politician to run in decades but the people never knew (i.e. Bush-McCain rants worked). Obama is the ultimate insider, a top ally of the people who created the mess(i.e. Fannie/Freddie) with only a history of being partisan. Again who would have known unless you watched Fox News. No congrats but good luck.

True, Obama got a lot of campaign money from somewhere...
