I am amazed actually
If that McCain had run, he would have done a lot better.
Wow.

W00t! Bugger, there's nothing in the fridge at home...

Anyway, Obama has the Irish vote sewn up.

elderly, Jewish, probably retired in Florida
Um, Jews, even the old ones in Florida, have been voting strongly Democrat since the 60s. Palm Beach is about the most liberal area of Florida, apparently. (Remember the 2000 US election and the butterfly ballot scandal - lots of Pat Buchanan votes recorded that should have gone to Gore). And Palin's rabid Christianity nixed McCain's chance of bringing them over. Of course Fish would have voted for Obama.

WH: wishing W well on his retirement?
... by any kind of absolute standard the man is an appalling moral leper. He’s not a good man outmatched by circumstances. And he’s not a bad man getting through by cunning and pragmatism.
He’s inept, a buffoon. But also perverse — reveling in the idea of inflicting death and destruction on others, avoiding military service in a war he supported when he was of the appropriate age, while claiming to envy the experience of the soldiers he’s sent to be maimed or killed in a war there was no need to fight. He’s presided over an incredibly rapid decline in the government’s fiscal position in order to funnel more money to the wealthiest Americans at a time of growing inequality. On his watch, the country suffered the most catastrophic terrorist attack in its history, and he’s been relentless ever since that day in trying to turn his own inability to keep the country safe into a political bludgeon to wield against his opponents.
There is much to celebrate about an Obama presidency, but I will also be heaving a sigh of relief that the Bush era is over, no matter what.
