Coming to terms with the results

It's been a couple days and while I haven't really watched the news much, I'm coming to grips with the results of Tuesday's election. I'm still not sure how the majority of the US could think Obama was the right choice, but I guess we have 4 years to find out if they were right.

While Michigan went Blue, I'm happy that my county went Red. Of course, that's tempered with overall low voter turnout in my county. This is from my local newspaper:

"As it was, the city of Coldwater saw a 55 percent turnout, and the county just over 58 percent."

What the hell is that about?

Relieved and disappointed

I'm relieved this almost 2-year long election cycle is over. It was way too much for way too long. Unfortunately, I think it's the way of the future. Ugh.

I'm disappointed in the outcome of the election though.

I don't know what else to say at this point....
