Now That It’s Over

Will the rest of the world find a new way to heap insult on America? Obama won election by the majority of the popular vote, and (as I wrote last week) an even greater majority of electoral votes. This to me means most Americans from most states felt he was the best man for the job.  I know some of the credit goes to George Bush. Without eight years of disastrous leadership(?), we might not have given Obama a serious look. But things were so bad for so long we did. And the results are in. Next step is the honeymoon, afer which we’ll see if we made the right choice. Given the alternative, I can’t see how we miss on this one.

Some things to point out with this “historic” election. Not all whites are racists, and not all racists are white. Obama is half white, half black. Or African-American, the politically correct term. I just hope he’s all business. We need to get out of this mess.
