Congratulations with you New elected President

Good hopes and outlandishly good promises ... I think us voters were promised (by all the candidates) everything imaginable that might be popular. Let's watch that magically happen while decreasing our taxes and still managing to pay for the safe return of our troops, healthcare for everyone, business ethics for all our businesses, etc.that they were so heavily touting.

At least there will be a break from all the non-specific promising for a while. Then again, some of the "change" and "maverick" skits on Saturday Night Live, Frank TV and other comedies were pretty hilarious and I will miss them.

On a strictly local note, to vote I turned into the community center parking lot past an awful lot of campaign signs for a particular candidate for our local school board -- hmmm, wonder if that affected my vote the way they planned? I thought there used to be laws about electioneering and polling within a certain number of feet of a voting place (including the grounds/parking lot) even if by local church or teacher's union.

Thank you, Mirjam. Now it will be very interesting to see what the next four years bring, economically, socially and internationally. The older I get, the more I know that we will all survive ( hopefully), but not quite as we had envisioned it.

There were no losers in this election, the main thing is its the end of Shrubya, and I think the entire citizenry of the planet welcomes THAT more than ANYTHING! Noreen
