Things are getting WAY too Hope-y and Yes-We-Can-y around here
Elections are wondrous things. It's a special time of hope, during which the dreams of approximately 49 percent of the entire voting age population of the United States of America are completely crushed.
Election time is also a time of reflection. Mostly, I'm reflecting about what the hell I'm going to do with these useless freakin' pictures of me with John Edwards, which I threw into the back of my closet a few months back.
And elections are a time to turn your back on that which has passed, and instead focus on the promise of the future. Which in many cases consists of election recounts and lawyer-dominated election result challenges, very ugly speakership fights, and the impending doom of 5 months worth of the legislative session.
I just thought I'd share, because there seems to be a distinct lack of cynicism in the air today. And frankly, we just can't have that.
