Yes, it is a political cartoon.  Very good.  I don't see where you're going with this.

I get it. It's because Democrats are loud.

Now it's the Republican's turn. Every turn that Obama makes, every move he takes, the Republicans will scrutinize just like the Democrats did for Bush.

But hey, that's politics. :)

You're actually going to say the electoral college is represenative of how America feels?

Pretty good comic.  Though the pictures should have Obama in a celebratory form and Bush looking more serious.

I really don't see where this notion of a "Country United" comes from, when both CNN and MSNBC are running articles which state the clear divide.

President Obama is an inspiring figure no doubt, comparable to the likes of President Kennedy. He will bring people together while in office, but it has not happened yet.

I'm not saying America is "united".  But yes, the fact that so many states -- including states where the Democrats haven't even been competitive in the past -- have turned "blue" is representative of "how America feels".
