I don’t want to hear nonsense blaming Romney for one thing.

He was a good campaigner. I cried last night because while he may not be a right-winger, he is a good man and would have been an excellent leader.

I am depressed this morning, but we will survive.

Those who say America is done because a president won reelection by a smaller majority than the first time (the first time ever...) need to get a clue and have some Reagan optimism.

In addition, those who blame Christie are silly. Sandy hurt Romney, but not enough to lose.

Parties and trends are cyclical.

The GOP MUST find a way to get more votes from minorities and women, however.

Relying on the white vote to carry the day is no longer going to work. Our party must expand or it will eventually start losing because of that.

In this case, it largely did so....while our side turned out, so did the Dems.

Luckily the House is good. But, say goodbye to a conservative SCOTUS.

God bless you, Mr. Romney and your hard-fought campaign.

I am sorry I can’t call you my president today.

Romney did do well....as far as Bengazi....80% of the voters would tell you that he's an actor on some sitcom....no one cares....

the pride in America is over....

Here here! Right now, the losers are feeling worse than they should, and the winners are feeling better than they should. Most everyone will be misinterpreting the results. I am going to let the emotions die down before I really get into the numbers. As much as this hurt to watch last night, I am already getting over it. We have a damaged (yes, I said it, DAMAGED) presidency at work, and there ARE ways to oppose it, we just need to stop crying and get to work.
