Ganó Obama







Bueno... Así fue que fue: Barack Obama ganó la Presidencia de los Estados Unidos de América. De más decir algo, porque (creo) ya se ha dicho todo. Esperemos, sencillamente, que sí sea el cambio.

349 votos electorales: no visto desde la reelección de Bill Clinton. (Aunque sigo sin creer en las reglas electorales de EUA, cabe aclarar.)

In his acceptance speech before some 150,000 supporters in Grant Park in Chicago, Obama complimented McCain on a hard-fought campaign and promised that a "new dawn of American leadership is at hand."

"It's been a long time coming, but tonight, because of what we did on this day, in this election, at this defining moment, change has come to America," Obama said, echoing a key theme of his campaign.

Looking ahead to an economic crisis and turbulent foreign affairs, he told the sea of supporters, "There are many who won't agree with every decision or policy I make as president, and we know that government can't solve every problem. But I will always be honest with you about the challenges we face."
