Except that’s what we all thought before the elections as well (that the plus voting for Hussein was bogus) and we were disappointed at the results when even traditional red states turned blue.

This is my fear.

No question that over time his approval rating will sink. My worry is blacks will not abandon him and America will be labeled as a racist nation

Wait for the CNN special in the future; “America: The Land of the Bigots and Home of the Klan.”

Before the election, Obama’s presidency was hypothetical. Now, the “hope” is gone and we are stuck with the reality that...reality doesn't change just because Obama is President. As our economy careens towards disaster that even liberal Dems can see and feel, the regret is settling in for many people. I think there is a fairly high percentage of people who voted for Obama as atonement for this country's past racism. Well, atonement means a price must be paid, and we're paying for it. When I see how scared — not biased; just scared — many comics are of criticizing Obama, it tells me this is more than sincere admiration of Obama at play. I just don't believe Obama’s approval ratings are 55%.
