Obama

First, let me say that I didn't vote for Obama. And no, I didn't vote for the old guy, either. I was kind of discouraged by the choices this year.

The Good:

1) Everyone loves Obama. Not just people in the US, but people in other countries. Maybe that's because they figure he'll do what every other Democrat in recent memory has done and ravage our military, but whatever the reason, we could use a little good PR these days.

2) He is black. Ok, some may argue that, but who cares. I never cared about his race when I decided I didn't want to vote for him, but since apparently it's important to some people, I'm glad we can remove the supposed stigma about never having had a black president.

The Bad:

1) I work for a small company. So, even though I've personally been promised a tax break, I'm pretty sure there won't be as much money to go around when raises are due, since the owner of the company I work for is squarely in Obama's crosshairs.

2) Speaking of crosshairs... He's going to be coming for your guns. I'm a bitter clinger, so I'm not very opimistic about the next 4 years.

3) Yeah, he's a socialist. I'm not for removing incentives for success, enabling people who want to live off others, or any sort of big government.
