To all my friends and acquaintances in the U.S., I hope you all voted, and everyone who voted down in the States is happy with their vote, and is relatively content with how the election turned out. While I certainly don't think that Barack Obama is a saviour or messiah or whatever, he's certainly a better statesman than Mitt Romney and I suspect a better man overall.
In any event, may all Americans enjoy the government that results from this vote for the next four years.
