[Knitting A Conundrum]

I wonder if it ever glimmers in the back of their minds that they may be wrong, that maybe they are living in a nightmare of their own construction - that they lost an election, and instead of looking at really why people don't vote for them, they have to tilt at monsterous windmills, making decent people into ghouls, all because they can't deal with the fact that enough people think their message is crap.

Sometimes, reality checks are too painful if you are too invested in the fantasy, I guess...

Hey democrats: No one likes you...they really, really don't like you.

I've tussled with these same types of thoughts. How do people get this way? They obviously look at the world through a different prism, but how/why does it happen? We may never know. But it is fun to watch them wail and gnash their teeth!
