it's Bush by a nose, and the crowd goes wild

My mother, who survived Nixon and Reagan, told me as I bawled early this morning that this is the first election I've really been emotionally invested in, so yes, it hurts, but no, it's not the end of the world. We hope.

All the same, yeah. It hurts.

( Rage )

To the rest of the world, who was watching - we're sorry. We tried. Our best wasn't good enough, but we're not going to give up. Maybe more of us are insane than not, but those not are still trying. Honest. Please don't give up on us.

Four more years. We can do this.
