  The race is not over, my friend. Sit and watch. Other Hillary supporters are just
  as disgruntled as you appear to be (unless I read too fast). I heard an ex-Hillary,
  ex-Democrat the other night talking about what she saw with the Obama 
  campaign, in the Texas caucuses. How they lied, cheated, and intimidated to
  make sure Obama was the man. The lady said, after what she saw, she would
  never vote Democrat again (maybe). The point is, many women were poopooed
  by the Obama campaign. Someone posted a link of an old Obama / Hillary 
  primary debate. Even then Hillary had to just stand there and listen to his
  drivel. After all, if she interrupted she would be a racist. I still predict that
  people like the people who supported Hillary will step up to the voting machine
  and drop Mr. Obama like a hot potato. If I was a woman, I know I would.
  I even have relatives that have never voted for a Republican, I suspect, but
  they now send me negative Obama jokes and cartoons. I suspect they are
  telling their Democrat friends another story. Anyway, this race is not over.
  Black people and college students (many of whom will not drag themselves
  out to vote, I know some personally) may be duped by the black magic,
  but reasonable, consciencious, moral Americans still have a brain, and they
  will vote for McCain. It will be a tight race, but you notice that in polls 
  McCain supporters plus undecided voters usually equals or exceeds Obama
  voters. When you consider the probable bias of most polls and that there
  are probably many more "undecided" than indicated, there you have it. It
  will be tight, but it will turn out right because God is still in control. Even
  IF Obama wins, he will be a one-term president like Carter, and will usher
  in a new wave of Republicans in two years and then a Republican president
  in four years.

  Alien; hi...I guess a lot of water has passed under the bridge since.
  
  However, I agree with you that Obama just won the battle and not the war! The question now is whether he can cope.
  
  Remember the early campaign days when he went somewhere a disaster had just occurred and was so 'tired' that he mixed up the figures in his speech?
  
  As Jeffrey Daniel of Shalamar said in Nigeria today, just two years ago nobody had heard of Obama outside Chicago, until people started buying his two books.
  
  By the way is there not something odd about that? Supposing any of that stuff in the book proves to be another 'Roots' allegory, then what?
  
  The Presidency would be taken back, just as the Pulitzer was withdrawn for 'Roots'? Ha-ha...
  
  Anyway, Daniel added that people abroad would be so surprised that the most powerful man in the world - the US President supposedly - was a 'black man'!
  
  Yeah, fat chance of Obama jetting around abroad with all the economic, military, and financial mess from Bush and company.
