As people and mainstream media ponder how Obama got elected, it makes me wonder where everyone has been. Do you know how Obama got elected? Is it somehow more complex and sinister than it seems?
It's simple to answer how Obama got elected. He was voted into the office. We are still a democracy, at least on paper. The democratic voting process is how Obama got elected. The people wanted Obama more than McCain/Palin. Did the people make a wise decision?
In light of the recent Sarah Palin book "Going Rogue", the Newsweek Sarah Palin Cover and the Levi Johnston Playgirl Pics, it's easy to see why it was difficult to take this candidate seriously. Does that mean she doesn't have a chance in the future? Not necessarily in this media-driven country.
It amazes me people still question how Obama got elected, like they are still in some kind of denial. Check out this article "52% of Republicans Think Obama Not Really Elected". Now what about that about that questionable Bush election...
I don't party with any of the political parties. I choose the best candidate with no loyalty to a party. My commitment is to this country and its overall well-being. That's exactly how Obama got elected. Now what he will do with is power is something else to watch...
On a humorous note, CBS News blog reports on Tina Fey's appearance at the Waldorf Astoria in New York for the Ad Council Annual Dinner 2009. If you need a laugh (though Palin fans may not be amused) after all this, check out the CBS blog and this video of the Tina Fey appearance from YouTube:

2) and there's no way people wanted more Bush (and that was McCain/Palin).
"The conspiracy has a regional flavor. Overall, even including Democrats and independents, only 47 percent of respondents in the South said they believed Obama was born in America, with 23 percent saying he was not and 30 percent saying they were unsure. In the Northeast and Midwest, the percentage of respondents who believe Obama was born in the U.S. was over 90 percent.
Ninety-three percent of Democrats say the president was born in the United States, as do 83 percent of independents."
