Yea, though I walk through the Valley of Republican Butt-hurt . . .

"You better start saving your money."
"You better bury your guns."
"We're really in trouble now."

We're really in trouble . . . now!?!

Electoral sour grapes can be an ugly thing to witness close up. Guys at work were pretty verbal in their knee-jerk racism yesterday in their efforts to express their disappointment. I heard a few fried chicken and watermelon references, but that never seemed to occur when I was standing too close. It's amazing the effect a stern "Behave" can have on even a grown man.

So many people in my neck of the woods worried about the loss of their guns. I did say to one guy, "Nobody wants to take anyone's guns. The last thing anyone wants to do is stand in the way of natural selection." Lost on him, as expected. Don't trick or treat at his house.

If you listened to the news, you'd think everything was joy and bubbles the day after the election. But I walked in to more that a few places that were plaing talk radio . . . and it was pretty ugly there as well. Here's hoping the backlash is short-lived and relatively contained.

Let's face it though, the best thing about this election was The Onion's ongoing coverage. Onion Radio News and Onion News Network are the two funniest podcasts out there, hands down.
