Waiting for SMS's reaction (and partly, JR8's too. Zzm, probably, I guess but he's not as enthusiastic as SMS).

My wife (who cried in frustration when Obama won last time) will be kicking the dog tonight. I called it a few days ago when I told her to get ready.
Now I'm called PNGMK

I'm rather indifferent. Everything being equal for me, I prefer Obama. Unfortunately, he is more likely to impact me in a financially negative way, that's all.

Obama wins... King of the American Kingdom, well done!

So, I heard, once you go black you never go back? Seems this may be the way for the US too!?

He did nothing during his first term, perhaps a repeat of that is no loss, apart from lost opportunity.

I don't think I'd vote for him myself, but that is simply because he comes across as such an up-himself arrogant, ermm ... individual.

Well, he mortgaged my great great grandchildren in his first term and I reckon he will double down that in the second term,
IF the US doesn't declare bankruptcy first. I see Moody already looking at the credit ratings and debating whether to drop it
another notch after this. Think I'll apply for Singapore Citizenship.

Somebody did a shop job of what Obama would look like in 2016 (and Romney too if he had won). However, Obama himself (in some event) that he would look like this in 2016.
