I'm not unhappy about my party losing the election. I'm unhappy that my philosophy seems to be in retreat right now. In case you hadn't figured it out by now, McCain was not exactly a standard-bearer for that philosophy, and I wouldn't have been much happier had he won.
I'm wondering how much time Obama has to be in office before the media decides it's okay to start talking the economy up instead of down.
