The good guys won...

... in case you missed it:-)
I will make a prediction. This Blog is the best place for me to do this, because if it is wrong, nobody will know, and if it is right, I can point to it and say "I told you so".

The USA economy will receive a major boost simply from the psychological lift that the election of Obama will give to under-achieving minorities. The power of hope and confidence should not be overlooked. People without hope and confidence achieve nothing.

The opponents of Obama dismiss his rhetoric as "empty words" - but words have the power to motivate and motivated people can achieve great things. Obama talks about hope, and give people hope. McCain used the rhetoric of war even when talking about domestic policy and his campaign. His speeches ended using the word "fight" and the metaphors of war over and over again.
 
People worldwide are tired of fighting. They want hope. This is why McCain lost. His rhetoric was hopeless.
With hope anything can be achieved. With war nothing can be achieved except destruction.
