Power failures like this are called *brown outs* and they hit Hawaii about every two months..nothing new or unusual. Obama's have a generator..no problems

Yeah....and when 150,000 homes in the Fort Wayne, Indiana area were without power, Obama must have been there, too! Or when tens of thousands of homes in the eastern part of the U.S. were without power last week, Obama must have been responsible for that, too.
The only 'omen' is the ignominious ignorance of people who hold such bias, bigotry and politically prejudicial views, brought on by their own inability to participate in this public forum with provocative questions, intelligent intercourse, and lively debate. It's an 'omen' of what this nation's coming to as America continues its path toward dumbed-down idiocy. -RKO- 12/27/08

There are 50 states. So: 50-1=49.
Obama misspoke and said there are 57 states. So: 57-1=56.
So I'm just curious where you got 55 from?

The power has failed all over the midwest and northeast as well. Is Obama also there?
