1. Obama ran a better campaign of lies (obviously)
2. The media influenced people to be sick of Bush
3. Obama won because people wanted a black man (er..Kenyan)
4. Bush fucked up in the last 3 months of presidency and people held it against him. Looking back, people are finally thinking he was right...including Obama.
5. Obama ran on a pack of lies making stupid, lazy people (yes, freeloaders) think they were going to get something for nothing.
#1. All candidates lie during their campaign
#2. It's an excuse. People were sick of Bush. Bush was the reason they were sick of Bush. If we can use the media argument then I could just as easily and with as much evidence say the media influence has affected Obama's popularity. The fact is Obama is the reason Obama is sucking wind right now.
#3. Too ludicrous to even comment on. You could say that Bush sucked so bad that Obama won inspite of being black
#4. Bush fucked up long before the last 3 months
#5. Again, ALL politicians at that level run on a pack of lies. It's assumed..
