The One That Puts It All To Rest
Well, it's finally over.... And it came out just the way everyone thought it would. No matter who won the presidential race, I think we can all agree that the next few years are going to be a rough, rough ride. Buckle up folks..
I'm going to wind this election season up with a few of the pluses and minuses from my point of view...
PLUS- To the Obama campaign for motivating more voters to do their duty than ever before in history
PLUS- To the democratic party for launching what will probably go down in history as the largest, most coordinated attack on American politics.
MINUS- To the media, who not only created stories, but eventually became the story themselves.
MINUS- To the Republican party who so mishandled their candidate
PLUS- To John McCain for being probably the classiest, most gracious guy in American politics. He is a dying breed in this country...
MINUS- To both parties for too much negative campaigning
PLUS- To those folks who did their homework and chose a side based on understanding
MINUS- To those that didn't....
MINUS- To both parties for never addressing the issues behind the sound bytes.
To those who stood on the other side of the fence from me... I truly hope, with all my heart, that your faith is well founded and proven right.
To everyone, don't stop questioning...don't stop learning... Just because the election is over, doesn't mean that the political, economic and social problems in this country are solved. Stay aware, stay informed, and stay curious..

I believe you will see this will be a campaign for others to study. As we have discussed, this will go down in history as the most well organized campaign in history, Not only did it reach to all states; it was world wide as well. The get out the vote part of the campaign is to be applauded. The ability to cut off anyone that spoke against him was unheralded. Add in the effective use of the internet and you can see how complex this campaign really was. The amount of money raised through the internet alone was astounding. It does not mater who you voted for, from a purely operational aspect, Obama's campaign was the best there has ever been.
