That's exactly correct. I think the number of people that voted 'for' 0bama was actually small. Maybe 10% of his votes. And seriously overwhelmed by those that voted against him specifically. This election was free stuff vs. economic sanity. Carefree vs. serious. Party in the present vs. the future. Those concepts do not require a 'person'. Anyone could have won this election. I suppose its the new paradigm. If a person so completely and demonstrably devoid of leadership skills can win this election then elections are simply no longer about people. At least for the left. On the right it appears to be all about people. Perhaps this is why we right keep losing now. Romney kept talking about creating jobs to people that apparently just didn't want one. 0bama just kept giving away more free stuff. The economy doesn't matter. You don't need a job if the gov't give you everything.
