Canadian Chandrasutra to my progressive brothers and sisters to the south:
"It's clear from reading your blogs you have learned a lot of very valuable things from the experience (and hangover) of your last presidential election. I'm hoping some of you might be able to share some of those insights with your friends up here in the north."
Treat it like I do sex. Grit your teeth and pray that it's over soon. But seriously, my advice would be not to underplay the impact this news may have on you. When Bush won the last election it was more than just bad news. It was almost 'bed-ridden in a fetal position' bad news.
To a lesser degree it emulated the Five Stages Of Grief.

To a lesser degree it emulated the Five Stages Of Grief.
1. Denial and isolation: "This is not happening to me."
2. Anger: "How dare God do this to me."
3. Bargaining: "Just let me live to see my son graduate."
4. Depression: "I can't bear to face going through this, putting my family through this."
5. Acceptance: "I'm ready, I don't want to struggle anymore."
Five Stages Of Election Rip-Off
1. Denial: "Wake me when it's over for it's gotta be a freaking nightmare."
2. Anger: "How dare Diebold do this to me. Again."
3. Bargaining: "How far is it to Canada?"
4. Despression: "What wine goes well with Prozac?"
5. Acceptance: Will let you know if/when it happens.
