(1) President Obama's assassination would be bad for the economy, not to mention the civil unrest, and potential blood shed, that would follow.
(2) Our country is in a pickle in more than a few ways. I'd hate his tenure to be overcome by the policies of the last 6 - 8 years.
(actually we should see some of the results of the current "bail out" within the next 8 years-- hoping it was worth it)
(3) I hope he doesn't make any major mistakes. If you think that some folk have been unforgiving of President Bush, let the next President continue to make the same ill-informed decisions with the same results.

I usually try to be objective as possible but these would be my worst fears too. However, you forgot to mention the civilian military he has already said he wants to have happen. Shades of Hitler?
Btw- I think it possible that Israel will make some kind of move against Iran in the near future if OB is elected. I don't think they are going to rely on us to handle the sitution.
