In 2009 after Obama won everyone against him predicted doom and gloom. According to many the USA would no longer be around in 3 or 4 years. He would have destroyed it.
Watching republican voters respond to Tuesday's win it has now changed to "we are no better off than we were four years ago". This is high praise indeed.
I'd rather a Romney win (as an outsider) but that's another story.
How the US has changed. My grandfather lived and worked there for a few years in the fifties and one of the things that he noted in his diary was that Americans would go to the polls and vote for a President but most would generally get behind and support either candidate that won. This he wrote was a major strength of America. The "we stand together as the greatest nation" factor.
Now...well it sure as changed. Without that cohesion as was in the fifties a country is sure to suffer.
