There 'ya go again John McCain.

Had it not been for the negative campaign over the entire general election you might have had one more vote. Multiply that times however many voters don't like negativity, and WOW, 270 is closer.

I have been voting for 36 years, and this is the first time I have ever voted for a Democratic candidate for President. Thanks to you for Barack Hussein Obama's victory, and my intuitive notion to vote for a candidate that displayed a much more professional and positive campaign and more so, a caring and positive attitude to all AMERICANS.

Great message from former First Lady Hillary Clinton. I'm hoping that President Obama (wow it's unbelievable that I can finally write that now) will make Hillary a part of his official cabinet. I would love to see her a part of this historic regime.

Just out of curiosity, why is it that the election was called for Obama before the polls closed in Alaska? I know that it doesn't matter at this point, but it seems a slap in the face to the republican VP candidate.

Larry Green — Wed, 05 Nov 2008 05:19:21 GMT

I understand that Obama has won the electoral votes. I must say I feel very doomed and I am not a pessimist. Everything I work for will soon be "shared" amongst everyone else including the illegal aliens so we all have the same, no matter how hard I work. What more did Obama have to do to prove he's unfit for the presidency?

Have extensive ties with terrorists? Check.
Proclaim America's founding document to be "fundamentally flawed"? Check.
Threaten to bankrupt an industry that provides half this country's juice? Check.
Promise to weaken America's military, empower the United Nations, boost the standing of the world's tyrants. Check, check, check.
Push an economic plan ripped from the pages of Karl Marx? Check.
Denounce self-interest -- i.e., the lifeblood of a market economy -- as "selfishness"? Check.
Have a late-game revelation about an aunt who's an illegal alien enjoying public assistance, ignoring deportation orders, and making illegal campaign contributions to Obama? Check, check, and check.

Sure, America could use a change in focus, but that doesn't mean the most radical departure possible will somehow pay the biggest dividends. On the contrary. Everything Obama threatens to do will actually weaken America and her standing in the world.

And to add to all that he has no pride in the American Flag and can not (or will not) prove his own birth records as an American Citizen.

One day very soon, everyone will feel the results of the tragedy that has occurred on this day. Unlike 9/11 that immediately shocked us all, we will feel our country slowly disintegrate into oblivion. By the time Americans realize what has happened we will be like the frog in the pot that slowly rose to a boil and was cooked. Our days are now truly numbered. Religious people talk about the End of Days and I always felt that was something to happen a very, very long time from now. Now it seems by 2012 we may actually see the end.

There is nowhere else to go unless we head to India to find a job, so we must all sit and watch this play out. Most democrats will think this is sour grapes or "whining" but McCain was no picnic either. He was just not going to turn us into the socialist USSA.

Greg in Gridley: I hope that one day, you will open your eyes, and not judge a man because of his middle name or believe the lies you were told by someone you idolize. What's the difference if our President-Elect's middle name is Hussein? Do you really think that a casual relation to a 'terrorist' (Who happens to be a well respected professor) would qualify as being a best friend? It's no small wonder Republicans managed to stay in the White House for so long. President-elect obama earned this victory, and we should all now work together to get our country on the right track again, and back to prosperity and peace.

Ron Gomez,Illinois — Wed, 05 Nov 2008 05:28:20 GMT

So many people are caught up in the propaganda and mud slinging of this election. All this talk about a “socialism government” is just ludicrous. Are people forgetting there is a senate and congress that is still in power or are those same people just so used to Bush having executive power with no checks and balances. Another thing is the Bush family is close friends with the Bin Laden family or has that also gone to the wayside. I have heard and read so many people say “it’s a sad day for America” and I ask myself why. America was built on the Idea of making your dreams a reality and for Obama that is what happened. Some people need to wake up and smell the flowers I have been a Republican for entire life and voted proudly for Obama because the US cant take another economic fixes from the republican party.

Former First Lady Hillary Clinton forgave the lies and racist (calling the Clinton's racist so as to move the black vote from Hillary to himself) campaign and fount the PUMA reaction to that dirty campaign that had more than half her 18 million primary voters refusing to support Obama, and worked day and night to get over 90% of the PUMA folks to support Obama, locking down a very narrow popular vote win that allowed the electorial vote landslide tonight. A very classy lady - who should have been our 44th President. And on TV tonight I've seen the ungrateful slime that are some of Obama's supporters tell the talking heads that Hillary did nothing special because what she did she "HAD" to do. Many Democrats will be like myself and hold our praise for Obama until we see if he carries out his promises - see if he gets passed and into law universal health with a Medicare like option to the insurance company offerings, see if union signed card voting is approved and treaties become "fair trade" instead of "free trade", and see if promised Federal income, estate, and payroll tax changes are passed, before we return to the Democratic Party - indeed how women - including Hillary - are treated by the DNC/Dean/Pelosi/Donna Brazille will be watched closely before another dime of our money or time again go to the Democratic Party. Congratulations to Obama - he now has a chance for greatness - we will watch to see if he actually achieves greatness.

God forgive you for your lack of knowledge. Kenya is not the driving force behind September 11, 2001.
If you are referring to a Muslim background, perhaps you should do some research on Bangladesh where Mr. McCain's daughter is from (80% Muslim.) OR perhaps we should just remember that we are a rather young nation that is free to embrace, celebrate, declare, speak of, and accept our diverse backgrouds. And for the record, as a "white" christian of european decent, I accept the fact that you are protected by our constitution to express your opinion without fear of persecution. I believe that Mr. Obama is of Christian faith and if his name was Max or John Michael Smith, we wouldn't have these misconceptions. Regardless, please do NOT blame the religion of a person based on other's actions. Remember Timothy McVey? Good old white Christian boy born right here in the good old U.S. of A. Judge ye not.

All of the previous comments bashing the President (links to terrorism, his ethnicity, no birth certificate?) proves that there are still many ignorant people in this country and a lot of change is needed if we are to truly be the United States of America. And thank you McCain and Hillary for such encouraging words and I wish them the best in their political careers. It's nice to know that people can still lose graciously.

I am from Canada. Though I cannot vote in your elections, I live on a bordertown and see Americans everyday in all parts of my life. I liked Hilary Clinton and it was unfortunate that she and Obama both couldn't win, but thank god America made the right choice. I have a lot of respect for McCain, but felt that his choice of Palin for VP was the beginning of his defeat. His speech was incredible, and I think that no other Republican would have gotten as many as the votes as McCain did. He was the Republican's only hope in winning. I live in a "socialist" country where our taxes pay for our health care and wellbeing. I could never imagine the feeling of having to pay for my health care. And we don't have long waiting times. Cute comment about the USSA, though completely misguided. Firstly, illegal aliens cannot collect welfare checks or other social supports because they have to prove they are american citizens, no? If I, a young, white, Canadian female were to live in your country illegally, would you classify me as an illegal alien, or do you reserve that term for other ethnicities? Puh-leaze! The government is not going to rob you of all your money, and you probably will only have to pay like an extra grand at the most if you make more than 200k per year. Last I checked, those who make 200k per year are not that hard up.

The rest of the world thanks you, America. Never have I been so proud to live next to your country.
