Oh oh way to go Ohio!

I can't believe we pulled it off! A cow orker worked for a couple months on the campaign. We were planning to move to his friend's place in Canada if need be.

Oh wait. I'm a democrat and we won. I must go tell him we don't have to work anymore...we can just live off our gubmint now.

I'm pleased that Obama won, and doubly pleased that he won the popular vote too. But I think it's a mistake to assume there is a liberal mandate. The vote nationwide is apparently 50.1% to 48.4%. That's close, and is not a mandate.

But it's clear that there is some serious work ahead with the fiscal cliff fast approaching, and both parties need to work together. That's something all Americans want government to do. There's going to have to be some compromises from both sides to get this done. And I'm mostly looking at the Republicans, because they have been unwilling to compromise at all on anything.
