I don't think gloating is something you force, it's something that just comes naturally, like breathing or feeling ill if Michael Moore appears on the TV. The Lefties are always saying we should do what feels natural, what FEELS right. They also say it's not healthy to suppress who one is.

To which I say: I agree! I'm not gloating in a sense that I want to make them feel depressed--I honestly don't, and when I've seen some of them this week I recall that it might have been me with the long face mumbling about how this country isn't the one I thought it was.

But I can't help feeling good about this election, and I'll be damned if I'm gonna pretend it doesn't feel good. They sure as hell would be gloating a lot more openly than I am.

You nailed it. There is a difference between feeling good, ie., satisfaction with being the winner and gloating, ie., feeling superior to your fellow American.

There are Democrats that I wouldn't even think of inviting in my home, but there are also Republicans whom also would remain on the doorstep.
