I agree Obama will need luck. He will also need some good advice, because he will have to face some tough challenges internationally and on the home front. This country doesn’t have the option to let Obama fail. We all are affected by whatever decisions he makes, so no matter what political advantage that it may have for the Democrats in the short term, I want Obama to make the right decisions for the future of this nation. Sure it would make more political sense to root for an Obama failure, but that’s a chance I don’t want to take. That’s why we have to keep fighting Barack’s campaign proposals, assuming that he actually wants to do all of these things he talked about during the campaign.

I am rooting for a lefty meltdown if Barack doesn’t do all the politically suicidal things the netroots is pushing him to do. If I’m going to pay higher taxes and possibly have government health care, at least I will have a few laughs along the way.

The Left would have been rioting in the streets if Obama did not win.

What am I saying, the Left rioted in the streets because Obama won.

When the celebration ends though, it’s time to sweep up the confetti, snap out of the trance, and realize that there are major issues to be dealt with.

My congratulations comes in the form of wishing Obama luck, he’s gonna need it. It’ll take more than a few catchy slogans and a fawning press to surmount the obstacles in front of him and our country.

The Right congratulates Obama on his victory because it is the decent thing to do.

What would the reaction of the Left been had McCain won?

They wouldn’t have offered congratulations.

Quite frankly, we are better people.

Tonight America elected a platitude.

Now Obama will have to do more than just talk.
