My initial reaction after Tuesday's nightmare was to go into hibernation for the next four years. Like I did after Reagan's reelection. It is times like these that I take Voltaire's "cultivate your garden" maxim to heart. The only problem is that I don't have a garden, and if I did, I'd probably forget to water it and kill everything in a week anyway.
So, instead, I offer this as my definitive thoughts on Tuesday's results.
