3. We can be upset with the decision, if that is the decision, while
still remembering the big picture. There's a different mentality that goes with winning. We're so used to being the dogged opposition that we have to reprogram ourselves to deal with being in power. We can still speak up when something is wrong, but we do ought to remember that ultimately we are going to agree more often than disagree with this one, and anything that weakend support of him gives the other side a better chance to come back.

No free passes, but a little more leeway.
