Well, it is probably pretty clear that they type of history I am witnessing is not the type of history I had hoped to witness, but I cast my vote, as did the rest of America and our country has spoken - loud and clear. I truly believe the first day the bottom fell out of the market was the day the nail was hammered into McCain's coffin.
We will see if Barack is a talker or a doer. It also appears the Dems will be in control of Congress...I just hope that someone keeps control of the checkbook and does not start giving them blank checks. It will be interesting to see how the market reacts to all of this - according to my financial advisor, the markets tend to respond more favorably to a Republican than a Democrat...I have already watched my hard earned money decrease in excess of 10%. Although everyone says "you won't need that money for a long time and it will come back" it is definitely discouraging to see it continue to fall - esp because I have been very disciplined about saving a fairly significant portion of my paycheck for retirement.
So for all you Obama supporters, congratulations - we will see if your man walks the walk as well as he talks the talk.

I'm with you Nicole. I had a feeling this day will come. I'm not too excited about the idea of taking from the rich to give to the poor. I think I saw a disney movie about this a while ago(robin hood). Time will tell and I'm willing to give Obama a chance. Hopefully things work out well.
