From DU:

Sigh ....

As a pessimist and depressive I know I'm a bad person. Try as I might I can't seem to muster up the postive attitude the rest of you folks display. I was failrly upbeat when I voted this morning. It felt good to vote a straight Dem ticket. I know I'll get hollared at for this lack of hope but watching the returns on the boob tube and the web demostrates to me that the Rethugs have the upper hand. With few exceptions things are generally going their way. The huge turnouts touted throughout the day must have been at best fanciful on our part or at worst trending to the 'Pukes. The HUGE margain Jebbie seems to be holding is the worst. Katherine Harris's win is equally depressing, especially given the false hope of her going down in flames that was posted in the GD Forum earlier this afternoon. Now Dole wins NC. What's next? A Modale loss? A Cleland loss?

I hope I'm wrong about the trending to the 'Thugs. I so deperately hope that I'm wrong. I'd give up anything to be wrong. I just don't think I am.

Bottom line for tonight: Perhaps a atatus quo for the Senate - although we could still easily lose it. Perhaps a seat or two pickup in the House, although that's probably toast too.

I still think that the sheeple are afraid. Really afraid. It's the 9/11 factor for sure and even though they don't say it overtly, I think that they see W as some kind of lord protector. The status quo is highly comforting to them. It's too bad because a 3 branch Rethug hegemony will be historically disasterous for this county.

So - I've taken my 2 Xanax's so I can sleep and tomorrow I'll will myself awake and go through the daily slog at work. I'll do it day after day waiting and hoping that someday the sheeple will stir from their torpor, rub their eys, survey the destruction to which they've acquiesced, and get to work rebuilding what they themselves have destroyed.

I'm sincerely sorry. I just can't share in false hope any longer.

Anyone have some thorazine they can spare?

Bwa ha ha ha ha ha ha! Stop it, I'm peeing my pants from laughter!

The systemwide overload of Schadenfreude is compressing my bladder!

That is the best post I've read today.

ROFL! Thanks, I NEEDED that! Tried to get in but they were down.

CONFUSION TO THE ENEMY!

Godspeed

No, but I do have a Speer Gold Dot with a Hogdon chaser. It's quicker.

Too bad he/she didn't mention what size the pills were. Two 0.5mg Xanaxes (Xanai?) are no big deal, but two 2mg pills indicates the person is either an addict or is in the middle of a MASSIVE freakout.

Yikes! Is that post indicative of the kind of people at DU? There must be some sad sacks over there tonight. I thought everybody was kidding about the suicide watch over there but after reading that, I think it is for real. As bad as things were for us in 2000, I don't think any of us talked about popping Xanax pills.

I got a kick out of "Rethugs." Is that what they call us over there. Oooooo, I am so insulted!
