Obama Won! What's Next? - Part 1: A dictatorship overthrown (X.) by X.

In the November elections, the more progressive section of new economy capital (think Google and its financial backers) united with the Obama campaign and the Obama Movement to overthrow the dictatorship of the most backwards section of old economy capital (think Halliburton and its financial backers), represented by the Cheney/Bush regime. No, this does not mean capitalism was overthrown. But Republican neo-fascism (built on white supremacy) was overthrown. On election night, the Obama Movement celebrated this tremendous victory in US cities large and small in scenes mildly reminiscent of Portugal during the Carnation Revolution that overthrew the fascist Estado Novo in 1974.
