Thoughts about the election?

I have many, but am not going to share most of them.

However, author, accountant, man-mountain and International Lord of Hate Larry Correia has several thoughts, facts and R-rated bon mots worth considering

Two things amusing me right now:

1. The pressure to CONCEDE NOW!

Response: Al Gore fought it out to mid-December and the nation did fine. Except for that George W. Bush wrecking the Middle East thing. But the transition went smoothly.

2. The Left is really, really bad at that rhetorical "reaching across the divide to heal our nation" thing. It is redolent of this scene from The Incredibles:

 


The First Lady inadvertently shows the rhetorical bind that four years of "you voted for Hitler" has put the Dems in for such outreach efforts. Assuming, for the sake of argument, that said efforts are sincere in the first place.

It's the equivalent of standing in front of someone, sanitizing your hand for a full minute, putting on a latex glove and then putting a goalie glove over that--and then extending said hand "in fellowship."
