I'm pretty sure this isn't the correct conclusion to draw. Recall, just a few days ago, these same folks were suggesting - correctly - that Sen. Obama was one of the most liberal sitting senators, and one of the most liberal Presidential candidates ever. So... we voted for that very liberal candidate because we're a 'center right' nation?
For those of you who accepted my challenge to write your own post-election-day analysis, today is the day to start seeing how well you did.
The best substantive analysis of McCain's loss that I've seen so far is this:

PHOENIX (Reuters) - Republican John McCain lost Tuesday's presidential election because he could not overcome a hostile economic environment, distance himself from an unpopular president or convince voters he could lead them out of the crisis.
[Note: Jeff Mason's lead paragraph could easily have been written two weeks ago!]
I've yet to see a similarly substantive analysis focusing on "Why Obama Won"... (you know, other than the U.S. is a 'center right' nation!)
Will Fox News continue to slander Prez-elect Obama as a 'Muslim-Commie-Socialist-terrorist with an evil (Christian) preacher'?
Only The Shadow knows!
