4. Hope dies last, but it doesn't look like miracle is going to materialize
just like in 2000.

5. Hope. but get active
Keep hoping for a miracle; but, get active with a group like MoveOnPac, Democracy for America, whoever has an agenda you can support. Then, stay active! The rightwing spent decades building political cadres and an infrastructure; don't think we're going to turn this around without a lot of work.

7. If you can
send some $ to Blackboxvoting.org. It's a last gasp but who knows what they'll turn up. And the stakes could not be higher.

8. YES, LIKE REPUBLICAN DEFECTORS IN SENATE AND HOUSE
or a total implosion of the right wing due to infighting among different religious groups...

or the public finally waking up

or whistleblowers coming forth with evidence of fraud

10. A miracle for me would be for the moderate Repubs
to put the country first and switch to Dem or Ind.

11. Maybe When The Pugs Realize
that the idea of the repugs being the PARTY (therefore a group) with all the power, and thus making them "all good" about themselves will fade when bu$h, drunk with power (& whatever else) will, through brazen and disgusting and undeniable acts, will make it clear to them that HE is the one this is all about. I preedict he will stomp HARD on any pug who disagrees with him,it will piss them off, and they will sing like a bird, so to speak.

12. Sure could use one about now!
I keep waking up in the morning and asking, is the nightmare over?
I know that it is going to last 4 more years and that is making me crazy.

14. The loss of hope is what is devastating. That was even discussed
a lot during the campaign but now that it feels like it is gone - it is heartbreaking.

Where is the switch to turn so you can stop caring for a little while? Right now it is just too painful.

15. Hoping for a miricle is like
wishing in one hand and taking a shit in the other. Which one will be full?

The hand that experiences the result of action will be.
