We are beginning to hear more and more that there is fear that Obama cannot be counted on to over-react and push moderates toward the extremists. The argument goes that Obama will be able to sway moderate Muslims to dump the extremists. It is really gathering steam out here in the emerging economies.

Well, America as a white racist state that hates third worlders like Arabs was part of the extremist rhetoric. The dumping on Obama because he was a "Muslim" was what they pushed too, as proof that whites would not elect him. The fact that he
was elected makes their spiel look like a bunch of lies...which is why they had to call him a house boy when he won. Sort of makes them look silly now that we weren't the racists they predicted.
So that is a good short term side effect of his winning. We'll see how it goes.
