The reason we won - IMHO:
We got the message out about how bad these assholes were.

We can say it is because we wooed the moderates, or that America is turning left, or even blame diebold for it all with a wild conspiracy theory about how they were using this to get us to think it's all ok on the machines now. There are lots of reasons.


Add to our vigilance their own stupidity, legal and moral issues, voter fatigue, me being so damned sexy it hurts, and a lot of other things.

Now we need to focus less on why and more on how we can keep winning - and that is by not doing what they did.

And part of that is keeping our people on their toes, not being little robots who let their leaders get away with a poor job performance out of fear of looking bad, passing common sense laws to help more and more people, no new wars and cleaning up this one, and on and on.

We need to be true, real, and set an example.

Awwww screw it, let's just go have some damned fun an enjoy our win - it's been a long six years, forget everything I wrote and go have a shot or two, or better yet - six, one for each year. People are fickle anyway. We WON! WOOOOHOOO!

1. "me being so damned sexy it hurts"
LOL

I was unaware of this meme. Perhaps you should promote it more.

"Now we need to focus less on why and more on how we can keep winning "

Excellent point.
