I guess my topic is a little misleading. I am not happy that we lost. I am happy that we can now shape the GOP into the conservative bastion that it should be. It's a challenge, but it's one that I'm willing to give a shot. Let's all meet this one head on and win in 2008. We can't give up now.
There's a difference between being "punch drunk" like you say, and trying to make lemonade from the lemons we were dealt Tuesday.
I'm a former Marine. Use your signature as a reference, and I'll use it as my excuse. ;)
I heard there's no such thing as a "former" Marine. Thanks for your service.
And welcome to FR!
When I first enlisted, the correct term was former Marine rather than Ex-Marine. Now I think they're trying to use the term "Marine For Life". At least they were when I was discharged in 2003.
