President Obama

So, with many polls now closed it appears Brarck Obama will now be the next President of the USA.

It’s a disaster for John McCain and now the aim is damage limitation. I fear for the security of the world now. I didn’t expect McCain to win it, but I thought he might do a little better. Many of my firends who I usually agree with politically have been for Obama for a while now, but I myself prefer substance over style, experience over youth and policy over posters.

Obama gives us all three of the latter - three things that are going to present the US and the world with severe problems. A age is dawning, an age of uncertainty.

These of course are my thoughts at 03:30 GMT, so give me a day or so to digest the whole election and I’ll put up full analysis of the 22 month process.
