My biggest fear about the election this year was not that my candidate would not win.
My biggest fear was that something like the 2000 election would happen and there would not be results by the next day. I was afraid that the pain of the campaigning, the self-rightousness, the value of party over person, would last a day longer than planned.
The election is over and the leaders can just do their job.
Am I the only one who wonders how a president does his/her job while campaigning? They all do it when they go for reelection. It’s not just Obama. But wasn’t he already as busy as possible BEFORE the campaign started? How does that work?
In other news, if I want to marry a woman in my state, I will be able to next year. I’m thrilled, vindicated, relieved, proud.
And relieved.
