I didn't hold out any unrealistic hope. Yes, I am disappointed. Yes, I wanted Kerry to pull something off at the end, but I knew it was a dream to think it would happen.
I am grounded in reality--sounds like you are, too. :-)

After the 2000 debacle they had the power of incumbency behind them. All they had to do is use smoke and mirrors to convince enough people that chimp was presidential. But that's if you believe everything was on the up and up. But nothing with the bush clan is.

What a bunch of friggin' drama freaks. The sky is falling! The sky is falling! I'm leaving the Democratic party! The Dems no longer represent me! Blah blah blah blah blah.
If it's so god-damned bad, then why are you wasting time at DU? Hit the streets and start a revolution!

55. I ran for my sanity from GD a few weeks after the election. |

I hardly ever go back now. I finally peeked in a couple of nights ago and there was yet another thread saying how they hate my kind (people from Texas). I closed the door and locked it after that.
Screw 'em, that has nothing to do with intelligent political conversation. If I wanted to read blind ignorant hate I'd go to Freeperville.
I now reside in the Lounge. Ahhh, the sanity. :)
