I don't even want to look at the news today.

I am burned out. I am tired of being a member of a party that is so totally fucking incompetent at standing up for itself. We pissed away the opportunity handed us in the 2008 election. We were unable or unwilling to make use of the mandate we had. We spent two years bending over backward trying not to offend anyone, knuckling under to the fake offense generated by the right-wing media, and utterly failing to make our case, in anything approaching a compelling way, to the American people.

I. Am. Tired.

I know what you mean... We lost every race here. And I am way bummed. I thought we had a chance in at least 2 of the races. But I can't listen to even NPR talking about election results anymore and I'm kinda feeling like the Dems deserved to lose in many cases, but that it's a shame the country will suffer for them to learn those lessons.
