Below is an email string that was written entirely by hardline conservatives. Most have ties to the military. It represents the point of view of most conservatives that I know.
Start at the bottom and read to the top.

The people who vote for him (and those who did not) will have to hold his feet to the fire and make him live up to his promises of “change”. Too often in the past we have just elected someone and then gone about our business – often complaining about what is being done or not done.
This time it has to be different!

I agree. Barack Hussein Obama II will be the President of the United States of America on 20 January 2009. We owe him our support, confidence, and prayers. If he makes decisions we agree with, we should acknowledge it. If he is open to suggestions, we should provide ideas. If he is wrong, we need to make that known to him. He is my commander-in-chief.

My friends and family members:
I have always made it clear whom I wished to see as our next president. Well, that is over now. The people have spoken with a resounding voice and Senator Obama is the choice of Americans. On January 20th he will be OUR President... Yours and mine. He will be facing unbelievable world and domestic problems. That means these problems are ours also. We MUST stand behind the Presidency even though we might not have liked the election outcome. Our President will need all our prayers and cooperation when he faces the terrors of this planet.
Shall we stop the bickering and all join in making this almost insurmountable task as easy for our president as possible? I'm betting we can--- and will!
