Why Obama Won – A Visual Slideshow

7 thoughts on “Why Obama Won – A Visual Slideshow”

  1. It was Santa Claus vs “the Grinch.” Likability had little to do with it. It was about buying votes. Fear drove the winning side. That and the failure of voters to be able to admit they failed in the last Prez election.

    I voted for someone I did not like. I didn’t like him then, and still don’t. This is the second Prez election in row I have done this.

    Does likability help? Yes, it did not decide this election. Fear, and greed did that.
