The amazing thing is how easy and normal it was to elect a black president. Even a year ago I'd have expected it to be a dominant issue, yet despite the best efforts of the media and Palin it seems almost nobody cared.

At this point the popular vote spread is about 5 points, well outside the margin of error, and large enough that there doesn't seem to have been much "Bradley effect".

Obama owes President Bush a huge Thanks! Given the results I doubt Obama would have beaten McCain without Bush's "help". Although given the list of To-Do's Bush is leaving behind it may be "Thanks For Nothing" pretty quick...
