We're losing on election day
Losing the pain of a tyrannical party holding too much power in our government.

Losing the chains that held progress back in this country.

Losing the fear of a steam rolling freedom hating government destroying more of our rights.

Losing the pessimism that has weighed on our hearts as we have seen our country looted by the republicans.

Losing the disease that has permeated everything from the environment to schools.

Losing sleep because we will be so happy we won we will forgo rest to party on, and to work hard for our country.

This country will lose much when we win, and I for one am damned thankful for it. I won't miss the things we lose, and neither will most Americans.

1. Just getting ready to flame you...
because I'm getting plenty sick and tired of the "we're going to lose" threads going on around here. You'd think we had some pathological fear of success.

To everything you posted, I can only add a hearty "amen"

6. If we win we are going to celebrate and then kick ass
If we lose, we'll just kick ass.
