I love DU. But, it's not the same since the last election.

I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone. We should have won. We did win. Something dreadful happened. And, I'm all out of sorts!

What about you? How do you feel?

How do we get over it and move on?

:-(

1. Yeah it's going to take some time

and a minor success to stoke the fires again.

2. I'm focusing on local issues and

local elections for 2006. Also the Ohio voter problem.... :scared:

Things won't heat up until the Congress is sworn in......Take time to re-prioritize your efforts. Tomorrow is another day.

3. Look at the CNN & AOL online Poll

The majority of online voters don't agree with Time's magazine decision to show Bush as Man of the Year.

Kerry should have won and probably did if it weren't for some kind of rigging by Bushco. In the meantime we're stuck with a corporatist who is harming our country and killing our service members. Four more years of hell, and so many can't open their eyes to see what Bush is doing. The frustration is extreme.

4. We need something to focus on

6. The thing that keeps me going is

that this isn't like the 1950's where people were walking around in a state of ignorant bliss. Half the country gets it. Half the country knows that chimpy and his fools want to gang-rape this country.

Short of having someone like Howard Dean in the DNC chair, it's gonna take some population shifts and more grassroots efforts in the South to tip the balance. Then too there may be a watershed event that helps Democrats across the country but especially in the South, much like the Civil Rights Act delivered southern Dixiecrats to the gop.

7. Good Post, i.e. points...

...:thumbsup:

[Skittles]

8. YES WE DID F***ING WIN

like magic it all seemed to turn upside-down at the same time - THIEVING BASTARDS. How the f*** long are we Democrats expected to play in this F***ING RIGGED GAME????

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

10. You summed up my sentiments

[Baja Margie]

11. Yes, we won

Look, you just gotta be an underground warrior, keep plugging away, keep fighting. Heh, every chance I get on other sites I still rub it in that Bush is a NAZI. And you know what, it makes me feel real good after I do it. Fuck them, don't let them ever FORGET we are still fucking here. Fuck them!!!!

[Guaranteed]

13. I think it's just time to move to Europe or Canada.

This culture is just bullshit. Too many idiots.

14. Well, I went through

the five stages people go through with death. I was in denial, I was upset, I bargained with God, I was angry, now I have accepted it. I am in news blackout, and have been on and off since 9/11, and am concentrating on paying off my bills and taking care of my family.
