No matter who wins." A very strong point made by Glenda. I will not say who I voted for, though no matter the outcome I will put my faith and hope behind the winner of the election. It is our only option once the election is over. So maybe the guy who you voted against won, and maybe u voted against them because you felt the other candidate was better. Well, that is even more of a reason to throw your support behind the winner, because they'll need as much support as they can get right now. “Seriously, after the people have spoken, we should give proper respect to the office of the Presidency.

Sadly, I couldn't find the graph on their website to link up.

Ok, so that's my rant! Seriously, after the people have spoken, we should give proper respect to the office of the Presidency. No matter who wins. Because in four years, if no one is able to sink this ship in that amount of time, we get to do it all over again. I've said my piece in the polling booth. Beyond that, I don't intend to look at one inaugural gown and wonder how much it cost! Head down, working hard, living on our own streets, with our own neighbors in our own little cities. Isn't it great to be an American! When the dust is settled tomorrow night, the media will have won again! Ok, so that’s my rant!
