In my 51 years on this earth I have learned that life is full of ups and downs. This is a downer but not as bad for me as when Clinton beat Dole in 96. If anything it will give conservatives in the GOP a chance to regroup and chose new leaders more in step with our base. Besides the Dems will find a way to screw things up. KEEP THE FAITH.

Guys, we need to look at this all from a historical perspective. This is actually not a bad result for a President starting his 6th year. If we keep the Senate, it's actually a historically pretty good result.

Agreed. I'm only 36 but have learned the same lesson. You win some and you lose some. In the end, everything will work out as planned, even if we don't know the reasons immediately.

My little one is sitting on my lap, warm in his pajamas with freshly scrubbed hair. Nothing could be more perfect than that. Everything will be okay.

Thanks, Bombard. I really needed to see that post. I've been having a really tough time with these results tonight (especially Santorum, Steele, Swann and Ehrlich so far).

I'm 48, and you are right.

Clinton winning a second term was worse. Gore winning the popular vote, and Kerry coming very close weren't as bad, but say a lot about where our nation is.

There is still a lot to fight for.
