Day 312: The day after...

Fifty one percent of  the nation is filled with joy, satisfaction and pride, while 49% is distraught and despairing.  Yet, the world did not come to an end.  The republicans are baffled and already pointing fingers at Mr. Romney, claiming that he was not conservative enough.  One of the greatest things about President Obama's victory was the repudiation of Karl Rove, the Koch brothers, Sheldon Adelson, Grover Norquist, and all the pundits.  I always found the statement, "take our country back," as offensive.  Back from what?  As if those of us who support Mr. Obama were somehow unworthy or unAmerican.  Well, there are so many problems, that we all have to pull together and work hard to find common ground.  

I stayed up till 2:30 am to watch all of the results, Mr. Romney's gracious concession speech and the President's powerful victory speech.  The entire country is thrilled that the advertisements and robocalls are finally over!
