I thought about going there, but I'm not going too....Considering that it covered both candidates, you might want to pick a different one.

Sorry, but that gets a big  from me.
The article is from World Net Daily, hardly a source I trust too much for any thing coming close to objectivity.
But really, what was in that article about what an Obama presidency would be like? That someone -- in this case, a campaign worker -- seems to have made a report to the Secret Service that turned out not to have a basis? (Of course, it's not clear from the article whether the campaign worker did so intentionally or unintentionally -- is it possible that the campaign worker misunderstood what was said on a cellphone in a moving car?) That the Secret Service did what they're supposed to do under the circumstances? What does any of this have to do with an Obama presidency.
Folks on the left made the same hysterical claims about what the Bush presidency would be like.
But hey, at least this guy didn't say Obama is the Anti-Christ?

According to Snopes.com this story can not yet be verified. However, they are reporting that the Obama campaign and the Secret Service are investigating.

As I noted before, when I worked in adult psych, any time the Pres or VP were going to be in town, the secret service showed to interview at least one of our patients because they had a history of making a death threat against the person. It happened all the time. If that campaign worker misheard her comment about dying babies on the floor and thought she was referring to Obama dying, then yes, the Secret Service is going to show up. That's the way things are since Presidents have been assassinated. that's what the Secret Service does for all Presidents/candidates of both parties. It's not new, it's not out of the ordinary.

Exactly. And, last time I checked the Obama campaign wasn't running the Secret Service.

The whole thing sounds fishy to me.

If this is true then that volunteer should be thrown in jail. Hopefully it was just a big misunderstanding.
