I’m Sleepy

McCain is delivering his concession speech and we can ponder what all this means tomorrow. A Democrat was going to win the presidency again, so let’s not act like this was the end of the world. In this climate, a lot of people were going to vote for the Democrat even if they think he was going to be worse just to punish the Republicans. Now it’s time for Barack Obama to show he’s more than an pretty, shiny thing people wanted despite not knowing what it was.

And it’s time to start the Republican Underground. WOLVERINES!!!

The “Aww, Screw It” Candidate

The country is still center-right (Obama had to campaign on tax cuts and denied that he wants gun control), but the Republicans have been so horrible lately that too many people just couldn’t bring themselves to reward them with the presidency again. It may seem stupid to put such a shiny object in charge during a time of war, but the Republicans had to get punished some time.

So, in summary, I blame us, Republican voters, since we elected the the sucky Republicans in the first place. Bad us. Ironically, maybe we could have prevented this by being more willing to vote for Democrats in the past.
