I agree with that, too. People have been getting tired of working longer/harder, losing time with families with nothing really to show for it. Still struggling as much as they were before with no real light at the end. Working hard for 3% raises each year when cost of living increases 5-7%. People who are affording their homes watching the value decrease daily due to foreclosures all around them. Everyone is fed up. McCain had some good views, but a guy with 7 or so homes and isn't or had to struggle can't really relate to people that are. I think that is what America saw with Obama. He wants to fight for the people that are taking it in the ass right now, no lube, no homo. The sad reality is the country is so fucked up right now that 4 years isn't enough to correct it. I just hope he is able to make something happen that helps us and not have people say "he was in office for 4 years and did nothing". Time will tell and as he said it won't be quick.
