Mainly dislikes. WHile its great to have Bush out of office, BO has done nothing but "talk ****" which I have never seen to this extent before in any election.

I hope some of it can get done, but unlike the rest of the country I seriously doubt how much good he is actually going to accomplish other than make my taxes go up.

I'm optimistic. I think he'll be able to help repair some of the strained relations with other countries that are the legacy of the Bush administration.

x2, mostly.

While I hope he can hold up to his campaign, no president ever has. My guess is that he will be just another sack of hot air. I still hope I'm wrong though.

Yeah I'd much rather have a President who's detached from reality and unaware of everything that's wrong with our country.

Oh boo fucking hoo. The poverty rate in America has risen under Bush because of his stupid tax cuts (and the middle class shrunk! Not hard to figure out where they've gone to.) If his administration has taught us anything (and it's taught us alot about what not to do) it's that giving tax cuts to the rich is a bad idea.

Obama says he's gonna give a tax cut to 95% of working Americans, though he's flip flopped a lot on that one.

If you believe Obama will stick to his promise, you shouldn't have anything to worry about if you're not upper class and if you're upper class, you have nothing to worry about.

The thing is he has made so many promises who knows what he will actually keep.

no, they don't "tax me to keep me alive", they force me to pay for a bunch of things i may or may not support. if anything i'd be able to keep myself alive a hell of a lot better if so much of my money weren't being stolen from me.

They don't tax you at all silly Canadian.
