You have not only listened to your intellect (ss well as your heart), but you have been honest enough with yourself to admit it. If all far left and far right voters were willing and able to do what you have done, our country and our culture would be in a much better place. We now must hope (or pray, if you prefer) that those of us who were in favor of Mc Cain realize that 1)the people have spoken (fortunately with a clear preference) and 2)now that Obama is our next president, we had better all get behind him and pray for his success (even if only for selfish reasons).<BR/><BR/>November 5, 2008 9:30 AM<BR/><BR/>I take this opportunity to be the first, but hopefully not the last, to remind us how our democracy is supposed to work (and, thankfully, usually does).

Probably not from expecting instant change (they have the sense to complain about that after his actual inauguration; maybe 2 or 3 minutes), but mostly in regards to whatever straws they can grasp, whatever things they can panic about, whatever things they can dredge up to bitch about.
