Obama - good for Americans

[hi_im_god]

why is "he isn't bush" good enough?

i know it violates geek's completely artificial rules but when most of the country is voting democratic because the republicans hitched their wagon to a punchline the last 8 years, why do the rest of us need to explain things further?

we're electing a black guy. that's not because we're such an advanced society. and we could have elected a chick. that's how bad you f'd up.

stop lining up behind retards for most of a decade and deserving people like mccain won't get swamped.

Can't say that is a thread violation.

It seems that was a common theme for a lot of the responders. The Bush hatred goes deep. No matter who ends up at the top - the severe division will unfortunately continue.

it's ugly.

i like mccain. i cast a meaningless vote for him the 2000 california primary well after bush had locked up the nomination.

i think this is the price we pay as a nation for the lee atwater/karl rove lie to the easily deceived style of politics.

the fact that it's going to turn around and cost them a few more senate, house and state legislative seats does give me a nice sense of schadenfreude. i admit to that character flaw.

i try not to think about how different things could be if mccain hadn't been smeared in s carolina. or if people weren't so f'in stupid they buy crap like mccain had a black child out of wedlock or obama was a muslim.

i despair for a country where the short term political benefit of such lies makes smart people tell them to idiotic sheep.

Unfortunately it is like that pretty much everywhere where you actually have a vote

This post hit the nail on the head. Bush really sucked and he's not a republican in my mind. Bush will singlehandely cost McCain the presidency.
