Honestly, I voted Obama and *hoped* that the GOP would pick up enough seats to restrain him. Obama at the helm redeems us so much overseas and I do find him to be a great, inspiring leader for the country. He stands likely to reunite the country. Even though I dislike some of his economic policy, I think he can bring people together, which is what the country needs more than anything. No one politician is going to fix our economy, but one man might unite us.
