Election soundtrack

R.E.M's It's the End of the World As We Know It

Appropriate don't you think?


End of line.



UPDATE: For the throngs of people, all two of you, who have pointed out that the song above contains the line "and I feel fine." here's why I feel fine.

First, most of a bottle of Dalmore Cigar Malt tends to ensure that I feel no pain.

Second, and more important, the election wasn't the blowout that most people thought it would be. The electoral vote went his way in dramatic fashion but he's winning the popular vote by about 5%. Sounds like a lot until you factor in what went into his win. Six hundred million dollars only buys five percent? And lets not forget the complicity of the media in hiding everything that could make Obama look bad while crucifying his foes. Don't believe me? Go look for stories on Joe the plumber or Sarah Palin's tanning bed and see what you find. Then go look for stories about Obama or Biden and their history's. Any mention of Biden's daughter and her arrests? Nope. Any stories on the shady dealings Obama had with Rezko? Not outside Fox News.

So basically you have the perfect storm for democrats. An unpopular president. A financial crisis(caused by democrats, extended by democrats, and, when republicans tried to stop it, guaranteed by democrats). An ungodly ability to raise money, even questionable money. Massive turnout in previously apathetic demographics. And, to top it all off, a media that turns a blind eye to anything that might raise eyebrows on the democratic side, including the flat-out lies by people like Obama, Biden, Pelosi, and Reid regarding the Wall St. meltdown. Put that all together and Obama only won by 5%??? How the hell, with all that in his corner, did he only win the popular vote by 5%? Democrats will never see this kind of opportunity again. especially after the people begin to see just how little a democrat controlled government gives a damn about them or their needs.
