Sorry Wrbby but I've been stuck at an old airport all day getting back up here to work with no access at all to any media (it's actually been a relief). I haven't seen anything since last night. Where I'm coming from is from my wife and my family. My in-laws family are staunch Democrats, but this election they voted for Bush because in the words of my FIL "I couldn't find anything I liked about Kerry or what the Democrats were offering". You could have knocked us down with a feather. Then my MIL told us the same thing (my in-laws are divorced). You can bitch, bemoan, act like chicken little, vent, whine and complain all you want wrbby but the fact reamins the Democrats lost this election more than the GOP won it and if they don't change their tactics they are screwed. Wrbby man your to good of a guy, sour grapes don't suit ya.
I only post using 100% recycled electrons!!!
Stay on the bomb run, boys. I'm going to get them doors open if it hair lips everybody on Bear Creek.

LOL. Well what I meant by that is many of the words and phrases you were writing seemed to practically be copied/pasted from CNN talking heads. I haven't been watching the TV, but I've had it on all day (just as kinda background ambient noise) and listening, and they've been saying the same exact thing all day over and over again.
But yeah,.. it's not sour grapes Major. I accept that Bush won this election. He won it by 3.5 million votes soundly. And that's a loud and clear message. Too loud to ignore. And when I look at the candidate and I look at the people who voted for him (based on the final exit poll numbers), I can start to see a greater picture of what is happening in this country. Why it's happening I have no clue. But it is and I don't think it's going away anytime soon. And it bothers me because I can see America taking a new shape that I don't think the founding fathers ever wanted. They knew this was/is a fragile country. If you look closely, this country has a large sticker on it that says "handle with care". But now there are cracks forming and I am anticipating that better days are now something we do not have the luxury of looking forward to. Should I sit around worrying about this all day? No. Is it going to help for me to complain about it? No. But I have a first amendment right to say what I want, and until that gets shut down,.. I will excersize that right.
