Barack Obama is the 44th President Elect of the United States.
Although the news outlets are far from calling it - looking at the map, it is beyond dispute that the United States has chosen their President Elect. Senator Barack Obama.
Tonight is a historic night.
Historic turn out. First African American President. More votes for a Republican than any other election. More states, more money, more, more more….
It is what Democracy is all about.
I congratulate Senator Obama. It was a tremendous campaign.
And for tomorrow… my fellow Republicans… one election is not about what our Party is about. We will continue conservatism in exile, for quite soon, we will be called upon again to lead our country.

Amen to that. We have work to do, keeping our positions alive, picking up recruits when their policies fail and get back on top at the next election.
Bill O’Connells last blog post..Queue Up for the Loyal Opposition.
I am a former Perot independent that voted for the McCain/ Palin ticket. I did so not out of fear of socialism, at least not the term itself, but instead out of an unswerving devotion to the ideas of merit and a common nationalism. Though Obama is an excellent public speaker, he was presented to the public without a critical examination of his political background, including both an examination of his resume, and the resume of his Marxist campaign manager {google Axelrod}, or perhaps George Soros for that matter.
Where I think that the Republican party went wrong was that it didn’t even so much as address the pressing problems our society faces such as: outsourcing, price discrimination in healthcare, taking a leadership role in industry, and instead stuck only with taxation rhetoric, and deregulation/ free market diatribe. The party was also out of touch with the realities of race in America and the effects of rampant immigration. If the editor feels like editing, or removing this post due to a queasy feeling about race, then be aware that the author is part- Amerindian. If these few social ideals/ socialism had been addressed by the Republicans/ lobbyists, then perhaps an Obamanation may have been averted.
Meanwhile the banking system has harnessed our future efforts for its own welfare. The banking system is now all but nationalized, and along with the soon-to-be nationalized auto industry will bankrupt the nation. The banks won’t care since they will be banking on your tax dollars.
