Quite true as the trend around my neighborhood shows people with smaller houses had Obama signs and ones with bigger houses boasted McCain signs.

I beg to differ on this. Most people vote to solely benefit themselves and could care less about anyone else. Atleast that is how it is here in the US. :P

Everybody knows they should vote, but sloth is one of the hardest sins to get rid of. Happily, voter turnout this year was great.

The Fact is that everybody should give their vote in healthy democracy... Even if your society is voting on "Which is better snail or worm?", you should vote...!

I'm not a fan of the Bush administration, but he can't really take much blame. After all, Bush can only reflect the will of the Senate, Congress and his executive cabinet. There isn't much that the president can do which can't be prevented by a majority vote in congress or the senate.

Given that our government was mainly run by republicans the past 8 years, you should place the blame on the party in general (with specific exceptions such as Ron Paul [against the war], of course).

That being said, our president gave us quite a few laughs over his 8 chaos stricken years as president.

You kinda should care who is president because one will lead better than the other! There have been good democrats and republicans.

The whole point is to decide who you think will lead it best out of the available candidates. Their views tend to determine how they lead it. :P

To be honest, I really don't care who is our president, as long as they lead our country in the right direction and do good things for us, then I'm happy, regardless of their politic views or religious views.
Just my opinion though.

It is hardly a landside. 52% vs 46% isn't really a landslide. However, we know how much popular vote really means in this country.

I will make sure to mail people postcards from Canada. :P

McCain was never one to score lucky breaks. At any rate, it's truly not over until inauguration day. Hopefully it's a smooth ride to the white house for Obama.

Statistics show that McCain's chance to win (by winning every state Obama has a short lead in) is 1:256. If he is able to somehow pull Pennsylvania then it would be a little better.

Obama is my choice.
