Excellent Post. Republicans need to grow a spine or else we’re doomed for good. Even Bush catered too much to them.

Obama will never be my President. I will accord him the same respect the Democrats accorded to Bush.

Me too, and that's my message tomorrow to all my gloating lib coworkers.

Ohio has saddened me greatly.

Well, for what it’s worth....great sadness awaits Ohio.


... because I’m moving out of this commie-Nazi loving worthless excuse for a state.

I expect many more will leave Ohio now, too.

There will always be good parts of this nation. We gave it the good fight these last few months but the country did not agree with us. Its time to soldier on. The conservative movement has a big rebuilding job ahead of it. We came back from the Goldwater debacle. We will come back from Obama's victory this year.

Your post has brought me--and I'm sure many here--peace, comfort and a good dose of common sense. Thank you for that and God bless you.

What I hope happens is that most of what Obama has proposed happens swiftly. Let the pain come quickly. I fear that if it’s a trickle here and a trickle there that people will only adjust and accommodate the negative changes and learn to be passive about them as they always are.

If people witness a drastic rather than gradual change in their way of life, it might sink in what we have done.

I hope you don’t mind, but I copied and pasted your great words to my family!!! It’s a sad day for “us”, but there is a much bigger picture, and you just pointed that out. Godspeed, America!

I am waiting to see the stock market tommorrow.

Oil stocks down, solar up.

government construction up.

people pulling cash out.

If hedge funds still open, people will pull money.

THINK JIMMY CARTER-NOMICS.

Folks, we should maintain our sense of history, unlike so many of our fellow Americans.

This race was moving along squarely for McCain until the financial crisis. A crisis brought about by Fannie and Freddie and their greedy brethren.

And the Obamatron feasted on that every which way.

The irony is too ugly to contemplate now. They will all skate.
It’s right out of the communist playbook. Destroy the institutions of capitalism and then feast on its carcass.

So he wants to use taxation to nationalize and destroy industries. Fine.
Maybe the American people will wake up.

Until then....the fight goes on. No retreat, just battle upon battle.

I had to mute the TV. Even Fox was making me sick.

How are they projecting NM for Obama, too?? Did their polls even close yet??
