Make sure you read the next post Elkie's update "Hectic Week"

I told you so, I told you so...

Some of those people are reading this blog.
On a serious note many people are saying lots of things about this.
The 1st thing that saddens me (but I am not surprised) is that 80% of US Jews supported him financially and electorally (if that's a word).
But the main point I want to make is that I believe Hashem communicates with us even today though events in our lives. (That's what Chazal Says). The trick is to be tuned into those events, it's timing etc. and be able to hear and understand the message.
When we say Shema Yisrael Hashem Elokeinu... Shema means Hear AND Understand.
Barack Hussein Obama won the election on the week of Parshat Lech Lecha.
That is the Parsha where Avram אברם receives the 1st Mitzva given to the 1st Jew. Aliya!
"Lech Lecha" - Go for your own good
Upon completing this difficult and rewarding test, Hashem gives him the Hey ה for Hashem in his name AvraHam אברהם
