Life will go on and the sun will rise again. [View all]

Almost ten years ago from today, I didn't believe that. When the Chimp-in-Chief won another term, I felt like my world had ended. I felt utterly hopeless and believed things would never get better.

Well, my world didn't end. A decade later, I'm still fighting the good fight. I remain optimistic that things will get better. It may take awhile but I believe we will have the last laugh in the end. The results of tonight don't fill me with despair or make me want to stick my head in an oven. It just makes me more determined and want to fight harder than ever before.

Let these shitbags enjoy their temporary victory. Nobody will remember it by 2016.
