    Honeymoon killer

    Barack Obama won the election even though we knew little about him except what was contained in the two books he wrote and the fawning of the media.

    He may become an outstanding President, but at this time he is a blank slate so don't be disappointed in what he ends up being.

    People were so desperate for change that they did not look beneath the surface of the candidate, and what he really stood for.
