President Obama doesn't scare me as much as he seems to scare other conservatives. I am anxious and interested to see what he does with the reigns. I am happy to see a black man sitting in that office. I don't care so much about the message it sends to France, but I think it will be a good thing for Detroit and L.A.

My biggest fear has to do with the fact that he is a rookie. After he is sworn in and saunters into the Oval Office, who is gonna be waiting for him? Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reed, two of the worst politicians of my lifetime (imho). Will he play to the middle (as he campaigned) or fall back to the leftie base? We will see.

I was also pleased to see Prop 8 pass in California. I believe that marriage should be limited to one man and one woman. That being said, I still have the uneasy feeling that we have just stuck our pudgy little finger in the dike... The cracks in the dam are letting a lot of water through.

I can't understand how Prop 8 could pass and Prop 4 (parental notification of a minor's abortion) could fail, but it did. California is a little schizo at times.
