OK, whatever.
You know? Let's be glad the whole f-ing election season is OVER!

But yes they are; it's been the problem all along - and he knows it.
And, the code word/magical word for "miracles" (so as not to be seen
as too fundi-'religious') is, "Transformation." Notice how loaded beyond
its own definition that word is when people use it (in an Obama context).

'Save me...
save me from Tomorrow..
I don't want to sail in this Ship Of Fools...'

Wow, Brendan -- such *positive* thinking!
Look, I consider myself fully a realist, but -- with all due respect,
honestly -- spare me the cynicism.
Rhetoric aside, no one is expecting miracles from Obama or anyone else. But,
sorry, I'll continue hoping for the best!

Boy howdy,
