• Whilst voting in record numbers for Obama, Californians voted yes for Proposition 8 which eliminates gay marriage rights and states marriage is only recognised if between a man and a woman.

• 
• Republican congress woman Michelle Bachmann, the crazy lady, who believed that Obama “may have anti-American views” and called for the Media to start a McCarthyesque investigation into anti-American sentiment amongst Congress members, still won her seat.

• McCain’s concession speech was pretty gracious and dignified, yet he’s created an atmosphere of fear and anger that he can’t control and his audience continually booed when Obama’s name was mentioned.
