Today, I may say would be a disturbing day. Obama won the presidential election, and it leaves a sour taste on the tongue. On the good side, Democrats seem to be better economist than the GOP and this may eventually help US economy and the world to escape the credit-pit. But it may also worsen. Since, it was the during the time of Clinton that the whole financial tsunami began, specifically, when Allan Greenspan headed the Feds.
I never been a liberal myself, possibly because of my age. Older people are likely to be conservative than liberal. And Obama's liberal, and I dont support him.
I heard that demographically, 68% adults supported McCain, while, 98% younger people , possibly 18 to 20 years of age, gone to Obama. With the large turn-out, reaching upto 130 to 150 million, the younger people votes played an important role to Obama's lead. But reviewing how each state voted, the proportions of the vote were very close, closely resembling 50/50. This is really a divided nation. It would take a great leader to heal this divide, which I doubt it would be Obama.
Well, the American people had spoken. I hope they make it right this time.
