There are going to be some hard feelings for awhile, but hopefully people will come around to the idea of at least giving the guy a chance. We have some very serious problems in this country, and instead of just fighting over who is going to get credit and blame, and who will be SEEN as right or wrong, we need to work together and IMMEDIATELY get down to business.

And Republicans who are angry about losing the Presidency and even more seats in the House and Senate need to take a good look inside at their own party and not try to look for blame outside it. Forget lashing out and laying blame. Forget calling names and sabotaging progress. Do a little soul searching. Figure out why it is that their party lost touch with the mainstream to such a degree that the voters have completely stripped them of all power. Republicans held the presidency and both houses only 8 years ago, and now they have lost all of that in a complete reversal. They need to figure out why, fix it, and then come back when they are ready. In the meantime, they need to accept that the voters have spoken.
