1. Denial and isolation.
2. Anger
3. Bargaining
4. Depression
5. Acceptance

I'm having trouble trying to figure out where you are in the stages of grieving. I guess Kirk's post brought you out of depression. But your post had elements of bargaining and acceptance. So you're almost home free!

Anyway!...the economy probably won't be healed during the next 4-8 years, the Bush administration saw to that. I'm glad there aren't any Republicans wishing ills on the American economy for political gain. We're so lucky Americans will be united in our desire for a successful post election economy in America. Wishing otherwise would be so selfish.

But many Americans aren't smart enough to figure out Bush sabotaged the next Presidency unintentionaly...and, they won't remember that in four years. But untill then it's so nice to know that Pubbys don't act like middle school kids and have our economic health as thier first concern for the next 4 years.

In recent days, those vast Obama crowds, though, have recalled for me the politics of charisma that wrecked Arab and Muslim societies. A leader does not have to say much, or be much. The crowd is left to its most powerful possession -- its imagination.

Kirkules, why do you continually misrepresent people who support Obama ? This isn't the first time you've made this exact generic slander.

Exactly.
Imagination is what most people are banking on these days. Obama has mountains of arrogant pride, and probably the most conceited person I've ever witnessed. He should do great win he steps in.

I accept that you think that I am grieving but I deny (without speaking for or with anyone else) and in fact am angry that that you would say such a thing and perhaps we can agree to disagree (such an agreeing being some sort of bargain).

Please...James Buchanan is the worst (although to be honost most of his problems were systemic, the basic fact is the guy lacked the balls to defend Federal property, whatever you might think of succession and I for one think it should have been decided in the Supreme Court, the man was President and I've read the dispatches of post-commanders asking for instructions with regards to their status and being completely ignored for month after month following the November 1860 election till the April 15, 1861 inauguration).

Then we need to consider Herbert Hoover (despite his forsight with regards to the arrival of the Decepticons), Jimmy Carter, Martin Van Ruin, William Henry Harrison (for the length alone), Franklin Pierce (who was a lousy President, not a wise-cracking Doctor)...

It get's better Hero. Imagine how great it would be if those slacker 18-30 year olds don't vote along with African Americans and Obama looses!...

I'm pretty sure the next day I would be seen on a bar stool with a 7-11 Slurpee cup filled up all the way with a mixture of Scotch and 151, and a .45 in the other hand....while with very slurred speech I would wail "You're not takin' me alive stooges...hic! I mean...stages of grief!!!"

Whozit is following a different track that will be even more efective. If he can convince just a few Obama supporteers that an Obama win is inevitable, they'll just stay home on election day and smoke pot and play video games.

I admire you for rolling up the sleeves and taking things into your own hands. That embodies the pioneer spirit that America needs. I'm not joking when I say that.

Oh, and the demoralized thing...won't happen. And I don't smoke pot, or drink, but video games...Call of Duty!...yes. But of course I voted by absentee ballot a few weeks ago....for Obama.

I'm in California and thats a foregone victory for any Democrat. And for our next trick...we'll cure our economic difficulties by seceeding from the union. So long tiny tax revenue parasite monkey states! So long middle eastern wars!! Ooops, off topic and no offense to anyone in a small monkey state.

Yup, and if he asked you to blow him, you probably would. Good job man.
