It's pretty simple really. America finally grew up. People saw through the Fox "news" style "granny death camps" lies and the hate and fear mongering and they rejected it. "Gays will eat your babies" worked in 04 but not today. Americans finally got that a civilized society means we are all in this together and that survival of the fittest belongs in the dark ages. Americans rejected "greed is good" fundamentalist capitalism where everything has to be sacrificed on the alter of profit. They rejected right wing extremism - most of the tea baggers lost. (Sadly, the head tea bag nut case - Bachman, squeezed thru.) Some Americans realized that it's wrong for the gov't to try to control personal decisions and dictate to people how to live their private lives. They rejected sex and morality police. Hopefully the rest of America will wake up too. I've never been prouder to be an American.

Grew up? More like they have their heads up their butts and don't have a clue what's going on! The economy is going to get worse - companies already laying off in anticipation of Obamacare - and we are going to have terrorists in our streets because they are not afraid of Obama. When it happens, don't say we didn't tell your. Good job, Obama voters! You voted to destroy our country and you're too dumb to realize it.

Oh yeah, and once all those "brown folks" get a taste of freedom, all hell's gonna break lose!

BTW, wasn't Missouri also one of the last states to free the slaves... ?

Another post claiming people who didn't vote for Obama are racist. I'm not racist. I will say for about the millionth time in response to stupid comments like yours: I would welcome Condie Rice as president. I don't care about anyone's race. I don't like Obama's politics.

And I don't live in Missouri. You should check your reading comprehension.

Like I said, when it happens just remember we told you. You must not take our national security any more seriously than Obama does.

"He's a muslim sympathizer, not a citizen, pals around with terrorists, granny death camps, socialist, communist, terrorist bla bla bla" and all the rest of the right wing lies and paranoia - We've been hearing these lies and this kind of hate and fear mongering for the past 4 years and that's what we rejected. He inherited a disastrous economy decades in the making and the fact is the economy IS improving, Obama DID save the auto industry, unemployment is decreasing, he DID prevent a full blown depression. Thank you president Obama for putting your country first and standing up to the hateful, venomous, sneering, smearing right wing pit bulls with such class and dignity.

Well, I have to agree with you on that one. If he really took our national security seriously he would slash the military budget by half because the greatest threat is not Iran or N. Korea or Russia or China it's our national debt.

What happens if the economy is flourishing by 2016? Are you going to find other ways to make Obama the worst president ever?

Yeah right. Obama winning had absolutely nothing to do with the overwhelming media bias in his favor, even more so than 2008. What other outcome would you expect when there are 8x as many negative stories run about Romney as Obama? Most voters are sheep who believe anything they're told, especially if the lies are repeated often enough.
