Because he had an excess of Acorn votes. Cheaters may win to being with, but they lose in the end.

Funny you should say that..."Joe Six Pack" and "Joe the Plumber" are about as dumb as you can get. Stupid rednecks usually vote Republican.

You have got to be kidding me, Obama is president because he''s a "good talker" now if that don''t sound a little scary, get a clue. Half of America is so shameful, if you want to be the greatest nation on earth, CLEAN IT UP! Make it PRO-LIFE, get people off the streets, eliminate poverty, and for crying out loud read the bible, oh I forgot we''re such a melting pot of religions.....THE HOLY BIBLE!!! God will not strike you down, he loves us all, but obviously half of America is lost.

I am tired of hearing that Obama won because he is black. He won the popular vote of Americans, all AMERICANS.
Yes, black, asian, spanish and whites. Some for different reasons, yes because he is black, but on the whole he won because AMERICA wanted change. People act like he is a savior, he is just a man, who ran at the right time, if he was on the GOP ticket he would not of won. Everything I listen to is about a race in a race. For me he is not the right man for the job, his background is very scary.
Yes like McCain said he has made history because he is black, but all AMERICANS made history by putting FAITH in him.
I hope that he does not turn this country into socialism or a one world country. I love America - this America - the America that is the one true red, white, and blue.

Obama won because he took time away from his Senate responsibilities for two years to campaign. He spent close to a billion dollars running. He gave (and in some cases had all of us give) untold millions to Acorn. Why such an effort to ''get out the vote'' is required is beyond me. Forget about Micky Mouse not being able to vote. BS! At my voting place he absolutely could have. All that was asked was last name, address, and month/day of birth. The address did not have to even be real. Why a Social security card is not required just shows how corrupt this all is. Obama won because he promised ''a check'' to the poor. (citizens or not). And what was the swing? Two percent! hahaha Yeah, a real ''mandate'' there. haha

Prediction; News will come by March that Obama ''reluctantly'' (just like Clinton) has to raise all of our taxes. Nice going sheep, good job!

Thanks to Bushoccio for exposing the sick and failed right wing ideology so that Obama could win along with many more reps and senators.

The good news is that he will be able to add to the majority for the next 8 years and have influence for decades. He will make Bushoccio and the sick GOP look like the utter fools and failures that they are. GO BARACK!!!!!!!!!!!

We all owe a deep debt of gratitude for the wonderful job Sarah Palin did in bringing about Obama''s win. One of the most important things she did was to demonstrate what an imbecile we would have in the Oval Office should McCain have won. Either McCain, by demonstrating his total lack of judgment or Palin, for demonstrating what an airhead she is. Thank you Sarah, you betcha''

You really should get some help. It is not only your inability to stay on a subject (as demonstrated by your short term memory problem) but you should get some help from a anger management specialist. They can do wonders with that. I say that because I really do care about you and want you to return to a productive life in the remaining years of both of us.

I am not here to defend Clinton. About the only thing I care about of Clinton is that he left office with a budget surplus which Bush promptly turned into a 6,000 billion dollar debt. Just imagine what we could have done with that much money. Why, we might have even found a cure for your short term memory problem.

Yup. You''re right. Clinton did not want to deal with Osama. He figured he would leave that mess for the next guy. No it''s all Bush''s fault. Hmmm. Interesting. Loser.

I told you about your short term memory loss and you are not doing anything to even try to get a cure for it. Your logic can certainly use some brushing up. You do not seem to have the ability to follow from one statement to another. I can suggest some good books for that problem. Or maybe a course on logic. I may have a problem in identifying one low enough for your capabilities.

Probably for the SAME reason George Flew Bin Ladens family out of the US on the taxpayer nickle RIGHT AFTER 9/11, REFUSED to let our special forces get him in Afghanistan, and has let him go since then when he''s checked in for medical care.
