So what do the election results mean

A lot of people are cheering but I think it's premature. There will be partisan squabbling between Congress and the White House over Iraq. The Democrats may try to raise taxes but I bet they'll do nothing about out of control government spending. They may try to deal with a few non issues such as abortion and try to ignore the constitution when it comes to gun rights.

In the past under republicans we've had government that lied to us about everything, pandered to big business by supporting free trade, ignored then environment, did nothing about the widening gap between rich and poor. Under the Democrats we'll have the same thing.

Corporations still control America no matter who wins an election.

im just celebrating the end of the check-free activist president

So this is the sequel to the box office hit thread: "Everything but what's really important" ?

I'll say...What happens to my gross paycheck, property and income taxes, and net take-home pay? Then, I'll have an answer.

On the contrary - I'd say it's a good day for people in SD for waking up and realizing that it's not their place to dictate the choices of someone's personal life.

In one case, anyway.

It isn't about whether the thread is a hit or not. I think people will continue to complain about things and at the end of the day do what they always do...stick their heads in the sand.

The babies in South Dakota will, of course, be completely unnafected. You know, on account of how they've already been born.

One group that's actually been legitimitely victimized in this elections has been the gay community, but somehow, I doubt you care about them.

When the Gay Marriage is guaranteed by the Constitution (which by my research, it already is), people will look back on this political era with the same disdain that we look at Nixon's now

Globalization, free trade, and the destruction of the middle class are not "pointless dismal rhetoric".

I guess everyone is hoping everything will turn out ok in the end. For the vast majority, it won't.
