"Ничего, и это переживём"

[ymarkov]

America has just made the ultimate affirmative action hire.

Nevertheless, this is a great country. I believe it will live to regret the choice it made yesterday - but the point is that it will live.

Maybe aphar is right and this will shut up (or at least greatly slow down) the race-mongers like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton.

This also ought to finish off McCain's presidential aspirations.

And maybe - just maybe - this will force the Republicans to find their lost bearings and pull off something like the Contract With America again.

it will live to regret

A country is not a person. It does not have feelings.

Yes, it is a black day for America.

That's a good way of putting it :)

I was thinking that yesterday, but it could go either way. It could go the way aphar is hoping for, but it could simply mean extra power to those bastards.

There are few other reasons not to be overly upset

Perhaps the next 4 years are not the worst years to handle to democrats and let them run the economy during the war.
If they decide to do something good for a change, republicans wouldn’t sabotage their efforts.
Obama might yank Deval Patrick from MA.
Israel might become more independent.
If Obama turns US into Europe by giving refugee status to Israeli Arabs there will be less of them in Israel.
Obama may become second Carter and after Carter there was quite a backlash…

Oh, I could imagine a small Gazah strip somewhere near the good city of Framingham, MA :)

Sounds like a plan (if only they and antis leave Israel alone)...
