I won't make the Hitler comparison, but think of the Italians before they elected Mussolini. How that work out for them?

Considering he's had a GOP hell bent on opposing policy and destroying his character I'd say O has had a pretty rough time. Thinking about where he started though history is likely to be pretty kind to his legacy...

Here's the full quote:

After decades of broken politics in Washington, and eight years of failed policies from George W. Bush, and 21 months of a campaign that's taken us from the rocky coast of Maine to the sunshine of California, we are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America. In five days, you can turn the page on policies that put greed and irresponsibility on Wall Street before the hard work and sacrifice of folks on Main Street. In five days, you can choose policies that invest in our middle class, and create new jobs, and grow this economy, so that everyone has a chance to succeed, not just the CEO, but the secretary and janitor, not just the factory owner, but the men and women on the factory floor. In five days, you can put an end to the politics that would divide a nation just to win an election, that tries to pit region against region, and city against town, and Republican against Democrat, that asks -- asks us to fear at a time when we need to hope.

Here's the full quote:

"Considering he's had a GOP hell bent on opposing policy"

When he proposes something that isn't asinine, I will hope the GOP will support him.

And how many Republican senators voted for Sonya Sotomayor (you know, the one who says that Latina females are culturally superior to everyone else, which explains why Americans are hellbent on moving to Mexico en masse).

"I'd say O has had a pretty rough time"

Yes he has.

"Thinking about where he started though history is likely to be pretty kind to his legacy"

What, by stating accurately that (1) our recovery from the recession he inherited has been the slowest ever, despite the fact that the Fed pumped a jillion dollars into the economy? Or by stating that (2) he inherited a stable Iraq, and left it in flames after his tenure? Or by stating accurately that (3) he did absolutely notihng to improve the financial health of Social Security or Medicare?

Yes, let's start making space on Mt Rushmore.

It's pretty sad but I don't think the Democratic Party was ready for a black President .
