You need to calm down and come back to reality. Talk about
over the top.


You need to take your meds.


Pot. *Meet Kettle.


Kook meet twit.


I'm actually concerned about what will happen in 4 years. "4" being
the operative word here. One needs to look at world history and go
back about 70 or so years. I'm really worried about the likability of
our new president - elect. That being said, he did definitely run the
better campaign. He used all of the "current" technology to its
fulest. It's not surprising that he won. However, it does make one
want to rethink the electoral college and it's original intent.


You have to wonder why things turned out like they did. Why the weakest
candidate was put up by the republicans and why Obama made it past
Hillary? Why didn't McCain pick from among the other republican rivals
for a running mate instead of the governor of Alaska?

These choices were not the way things would have gone in the past. All
the past playbook rules were ignored or changed. We ended up with two
terrible choices for president and VP. Over the hill, unreliable, and
unelectable on one hand or extreme liberal, no experience on the other.

In 4 years what will we have? Will Obama make it through the next 4
years. Will we still have a country resembling what we have today?

I don't have an answer for these questions other than our nations
institutions are breaking down. People voted for change. All I can say
is be careful what you ask for.
