Due to the results of the recent elections – there will be a period of mourning. If I don’t step back and chill for a few minutes my head will explode. I will return shortly – once I can get through the day without a 1/2 bottle of aspirin.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.

In my “olden days” I found that Schlitz and Nyquil took the edge off events like this. Geez whodduh thunk the Repubs were going to get there collective a$$es handed to them in this manner.
UMMMMM Me!
I am not happy about this at all. We can only hope that the Repubs regroup back to basic conservative values and take back what they gave away.
I think they will – they’ll have to. It’s gonna get pretty damn ugly. Although I can’t wait to see who is going to start the back-biting among the Dems. You know they won’t let Nancy keep that leadership position, don’t you? I have a feeling the big dogs of today may be the peeing puppies of tomorrow. π

There, there, cheer up, little buckaroo! Thank God we live in a country where the people actually HAVE the ability to change a government they’re unhappy with, and that when this change occurs, the politicians in question merely lose their offices, not their lives.
Yes, but please sir, could we maybe live in a country where we can shoot them for being idiots? (okay, don’t get your panties in a twist, I am just kidding)

Great point. I have lived in countries where death is the chosen form of political change. Not pretty at all.

Yeah too true. We bitch and moan but face it we have it better than any other country on the planet.

Thanks hon. At least now we’ll have two years of non-stop humor from the Dems. I can’t wait for the shenanigans to begin. I’m officially on gaff watch. π

Makes you wonder what will happen when Comrade Hillary runs.
It really does. Given the ‘new direction’ we’re supposedly will get from the ‘new power’ I’d say we’re in for a lot of ups and downs. Could be we’re in for a helluva ride – and unfortunately, I don’t mean that in a good way. π¦ WC

Yea, we took it in the socks this time. I guess we can hope that Congress will just lock up and get nothing passed. Lockdown is what we may have going and the “do nothing” prospects are better than thinking about Comrade Hillary. Man, send that lady off on a long vacation. Puleez.

I do think there will be a fair amount of gridlock. Perhaps the Republicans who are left will take a page from the Dems playbook and give them back what they got. The problem though, as I see it, is that most of the ‘gang of 14’ (who I am convinced by and large lost these mid-terms for us) are still in office – McCain being the ringleader with his loyal sidekick Lindsay Grahm.
McCain, like Hillary, believes himself to be the presumptive candidate in 2008. I wonder if they both have big surprises in store for them come 08?
My prediction though is that the Dems now giddy with power will conduct themselves as though they have some sort of landslide mandate (when in fact nearly all these races were really nail biters and very close) and freely and wildly try to rewrite the script of history and commit some horrendous gaffs. And when they do I wonder if the press will downplay it or even be able to. Tune in for two fun-filled years. oy!
