I don't think he's evil, and I don't think he's racist. I simply disagree with the idea that he is good for America, and some liberals (not necessarily on this board) don't understand that. There seems to be a mindset that if just fixes this one thing, we'll all come around. Not quite.

I am unclear what you mean by partisan. I only saw the dems responding to it. The repubs could care less... If that isn't what you mean, help me understand?
As far as what Obama will do
to the country--that I am not scared of, from my perspective it is already bad and I can only go up from this lowly point I reside now... Aside from the fact will ANYTHING get done? Really?
And I agree with you, this is ALL about politics and posturing. He is NOT going to fix a racial divide created long before there was an America, but I also am not cynical to think this will NEVER be good for America. Someday we have to heal. When will that be? After a mushroom cloud and 10,000 degrees Fahrenheit? Just asking?
