Uh-oh. A new era begins in the US

Careful what I wish for I guess…..

For better or for worse, I think the better man won the election. I’m a little unsettled that the Democrats also took control of the Senate and the House. 2 ways to think about that I guess:

1) With control comes the ability to make the tough decisions quickly which often is the key to success.
2) With control comes the ability to make the tough decisions quickly which, without checks and balances, can run a country amuck.

I’m not saying that there are checks and balances with full control, it’s just that a few more things can get railroaded through that maybe should be further considered. But I do like the fact that hard decisions can be pursued. In our pitiful minority government up here in north-USA, we will be slower to react to the times.

Anyway, have fun America! Your in for one heck of a ride. Obama is a polarizing figure and there’s bound to be some crazy things down the road.
