MSNBC commentator claims that Barack enters office unencumbered by obligations ignores his obligation to organized labor. His obligation to sign the Employee-Free Choice Act if it reaches him - which it will if Democrats win 60 Senate seats - will completely change the operating environment for small business in America. By increasing operating costs and imposing operating restrictions, many small businesses will go out of business and jobs will be lost.

Santa Barbara, Calif. -- A masked gunman waving an American flag on a 101 Freeway overpass shut down the freeway for hours just west of downtown on Monday as police negotiated with him.
Authorities took the gunman into custody at about 10:30 a.m. The freeway remained closed until late Monday morning.
Crisis negotiators reached an agreement with the unidentified man in which he would give up after being allowed to attach a Barack Obama campaign sign and the flag to the overpass railing, said police Sgt. Jim Pfleging.
When the nut job in Pitt carved a backward "B" into her forehead, she became a symbol on this site for Republican antics and theatrics among the distraught Dems. I demand equal time for this Obama campaign worker. He's out rocking the vote!

Obama owes no one for a victory other than the millions of contributors to HIS website and the millions of new voters HE registered.
Don't ever forget that.
However, even Barack can't get too swollen-headed.
Snares and delusions abound.
Will he bring that laser-like focus to advance his agenda??
Well, for a clue, ask yourself: how effective has he been as a campaigner, and how long did it take him to get from the Illinois Senate to the White House?

Man, it's gotta suck for you jokers who think mccain is worthy of being President of the United States. That title is meant for Obama and he deserves it. Republicans are now finding out why bush + cheney were such a horrible president About frickin' time...unfortunately for you, just a teeny tiny bit too late. You're now the minority and your views no longer matter.

I'm listening to McCain's concession speech. It's a little unusual that he's emphasizing that Obama is African-American when the race thing really was never really a campaign issue. Not to mention the fact that Barack Obama has a very respectable mixed heritage. Very happy of the outcome, however. The opposite would have been a disaster.
