Yes, it was close in the popular vote, BUT, it really feels like the enough people are rejecting the ideas of the Extremists. And that the far right does not speak to so many people---Thank God!<br />I think the 47% speech was very bad for Romney because it told people he wasn't for them. No one wants someone representing them that does not really care for them or their needs. I think that speech showed more of who he really is than any other speech he made.<br />Now, I hope that Obama is strong and does the things he said he would, in spite of the Congress.OldLady Of The Hillshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02458879772193114892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22918248.post-233723606158662322012-11-07T11:56:02.772-08:002012-11-07T11:56:02.772-08:00John McCain also gave a very good concession speec...John McCain also gave a very good concession speech 4 years ago. I think many of the GOP leadership is moderate and just gets pirated by the Tea Party extremests without knowing it.

I think you are right, America did not reject conservatism it just rejected the idea of one political party holding the country hostage for it's own political gain. Its time for the Republican party to get off its high horse and start working for the people instead of against us.la peregrinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10992459469931809488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22918248.post-45311982830525743502012-11-07T10:21:18.171-08:002012-11-07T10:21:18.171-08:00Hooray, hooray.

We need to write to any and everyone from any state as to our views and needs. We are interconnected whether we like it or not. I was glad to hear Obama comment on repairing the voting processes in his acceptance speech. Disenfranchising people by deception is pretty scruffy.Celiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14485118642482033233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22918248.post-63522048550776416582012-11-07T09:34:12.634-08:002012-11-07T09:34:12.634-08:00Rain, I am so happy to see Obama win the election....Rain, I am so happy to see Obama win the election.
