You say Obama was very smart. How do you know? Have you seen his school records? If so you are the only one.
You said in four years we can vote him out, if he doesn't produce. Unfortuantely, in four years a lot of damage can be done.
Just for the record, I literally held my nose when voting for McPain. As is so often the case, it was the lesser of two evils, in my opinion.

I don't need to see his transcript, Sally Jo. To be admitted to the Harvard Law School, a student has to have an impeccable academic record. Then those selected to write for the
Harvard Law Review--those students are the best of the best. And of coruse, he was further recognized by being chosen to serve as the president of the
Law Review.
Sorry, Sally Jo, I really don't need to see a transcript.
And by the way, people seem to forget that Obama served two years as an Illinois State Senator and then two more as a United States Senator. Compared to Palin's year and a half as Governor of Alaska and two terms as Mayor of a town of 7,800 people, I'd say their experience was pretty comparable. Should we talk about the experience and ability of both candidates to deal with the foreign relations of the U.S.? Palin didn't even apply for a passport until 2006 and before her nomination to run for the vice presidency, she only traveled outside North America once. In 2007 she visited members of the Alaska National Guard in Kuwait. And of course, we now all know that she knew where Russia was.
