just hours after victory, "Obama assassination" topped Google search terms

Already, there is speculation that Senator Obama might not live to see out his term - just hours after his victory, the term "Obama assassination" appeared on the top 100 Google search terms.

HE has already been the target of two assassination plots and delivered a victory speech from behind bulletproof glass. The potential threats against him are numerous and are likely to come from hate groups, or any number of organizations in and outside the US.

In a video shot before the outcome of the election was known, the national director of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, Thomas Robb, predicted "there may be a backlash" if Senator Obama won the presidential race. ... the white supremacist said: "We are in a race war."

4. Maybe an army of Obama supporters are looking for potential threats to report.

6. It would be incredibly irresponsible to not consider the possibility of an attempt.

And how to stop it. We have after all lost 4 presidents that way.
