I'm not suggesting that those who supported Kerry shouldn't have the right to be concerned for their viewpoints or be able to voice their opinions. Obviously, it sucks to be in the minority. I remember when the Republicans were in the minority and I wasn't happy then either. However, I don't think it's justified to go into panic mode and continually gripe about how bad the next 4 years are going to be and that there will be immense damage to the country and constitution. It just doesn't make any sense either politically or historically that those things will happen. Sure, those in the minority won't get their way for a while, but it won't be a political steamroller.
