Help me out here, and tell me if I’m right or wrong. Maybe it’s just me, maybe it’s that I haven’t paid much attention to past elections, but this year the Democrats seem extremely whiny about the whole election thing. It’s almost to the point of a temper tantrum. They are totally kicking and screaming, but they are whining about everything. Electoral College isn’t fair, blah blah; oppressive bigots stole the elections by scaring us, blah blah. Incessant whining since Wednesday afternoon; it’s getting old, and makes them look even worse.
The part that really gets to me is that most of them are blaming us ignorant, corn-fed, inbred, bigot, racist, red-necked Mid-Westerners (or as we are now know ‘Red-Staters’). Now, granted it’s Moby, but when I clicked on Tootle’s link to Moby yesterday, I was reading some of his “journal” entries. What an ignorant fucking ass. I didn’t like the guy’s music before; this just hardens the fact that I will never, ever buy one of his albums. But, he is not the only one. Even John Stewart and Lewis Black, guys I love watching, passed us off as nothing more than stupid ‘Red-Staters’ that should let the ‘grown-ups’ in the ‘Blue-States’ do all the thinking for us. I know they are bitter that they lost, but come on, seriously. Just because I didn’t grow up on the east or west coast (Thank GOD, might I add), I am somehow a stupid idiot that has no clue about anything. Well, to all those Liberal asses, screw you and your donkey. (yes, there is a pun intended there), you lost, the Republicans won, GET OVER IT!!
(all this whiney also isn’t helping the liberal Nancy boy image either; see also: Moby)
I've noticed some of this, but I've also run into a lot of Kerry supporters who have been very gracious in losing. Moby is an idiot.

Great letter. Couldn't agree with you more.
I'd like to make an observation in this regard. Most of the hysterical or whining people tended to to be older, grew-up-in-the-sixties types. Most of the Democrats I know in their twenties and thirties were disappointed but thoughtfully circumspect - a good sign for the long-term health of the Democratic party.
