Sleepless in Chicago

You are right about Obama’s intelligence and speaking prowess. But are way off on why he won and McCain lost. Obama in no way is a centrists or in the middle, like McCain. Yes, his policies quickly moved to the middle after he defeated Hillary. But his voting record, associations and ideas are as left as they come, and this article states that he will now return to the far-left. Obama won because he brought out a huge black and under-30 voter turnout. In true lawyer fashion, he said anything to convince the jurors (voters) who he is not.

You are also right in the fact that we should shut-up and let him be president. But be warned, if he does in fact do an about-face and return to his liberal-left: No tax cuts, a weakened military, unchecked Russia and Iran, redistribution of wealth, national health care, and the resurrection of Al Qaeda. Let it be known, the public will roar back and conservatism will make a return greater than 1994 when a true moderate democrat named Clinton let his ego and liberal advisors take control of his policies.

And P.S. – Unfortunately all our brave men and women in the military will find out what a community organizer does.
