Well.
Well, well, well.
The election is over and the guy I wanted to win has conceeded. Bush and Kerry both spoke today and eloquently called for the people of the nation to come together in a spirit of unity.
Those were nice words, but I'm not so sure it is going to happen that way. I have a lot of thoughts on these issues, but first, what do you think? Will Bush reach out to Democrats? Will Democrats give him a second chance? Or has the bitterness and the harsh rhetoric of the past year left scars that will not heal anytime soon?
(I hope you all remember that this all goes back to those ideas of general welfare and civic virtue. Remember that many of the Framers feared diversity and nation full of factions would poison the spirit of republicanism!)
