In " Yay! Boo! So? Reactions to Obama win vary", Peter Mucha reveals the different thoughts from people about Obama winning the campaign. Most people were disappointed that Obama won, others were happy , and some didn't care or didn't like either candidate.

The article includes quotes from voters that took the side of either Obama or Romney. One quote that stood out to me was, " I knew Barack was going to win, I think he's more trustworthy.He seems more of a people person.", said Jackie Harrison, 45.This quote shows that she didn't really need to worry about Obama losing because he has done a lot for people. So why wouldn't they vote for him?

Another quote that seemed to stand out was , "I'm not happy, I haven't had a job in over a year!"said Chuck Rihl , 51. He didn't want Obama to win because he was suppose to have people working , but it's clear that he didn't keep that in mind.

One question that I always think about when it comes to Obama is: did you only vote for him because he's the first black pesident?

  1. Ciarra,
    You've done some good work summarizing and including details from the article, but you don't have enough of your own opinions and commentary. See parts 3 and 4 of the blog post format for examples of what I am looking for. 65

    Also, it would be a good idea for you to change the font color, as your words are very hard to read with that background.
