I don't know if this makes me feel better or worse, but the thought occurred to me this morning
that it is so much easier to tear things down than to build them up.
Why would I feel better about that?
Because it explains why Republicans won. They had a much easier job.
Why would I feel bad about it?
Because rebuilding it will be a long grueling process that may never happen. The scars that Bush left have only barely begun to heal.
In terms of revenge, There is nothing Republicans have ever built to tear down.
Think about that for a minute.
