Barack Hussein Obama won another four years in the White House after a nail-biting and politically divisive American election and emerged more confident and determined on Wednesday morning to push his policies in the second term.
But unofficial results by Wednesday morning indicated that Washington would continue to be plagued by a continuing partisan political complexion. The second Obama Administration would still have a divided Capitol Hill as Republicans retained their control of the House of Representatives in a highly partisan environment.
Although, the Democrats held on to their majority in the Senate, Obama is expected to contend with stiff opposition to his ambitious domestic agenda on issues like fiscal fixes, taxation and immigration. He may also feel constrained at times on some foreign policy and national security decisions like assistance for foreign countries. Obama’s victory, built on an overwhelming backing by minorities, women, moderates, liberals and large Hispanic voters, signaled an encouraging support for Democrats, as they erupted in celebrations in Chicago, Obama’s hometown.
FOUR MORE FOR OBAMA!
