A number of bloggers that I follow have made farewell/final posts tonight. I'm reproducing this one because it references an excellent piece by Daniel Greenfield.
Final Post: Stick a fork in America.
If Romney had won decisively, I might have held out just a little bit of hope for America. Not because I think Mittens is any great savior, but because we would have seen an absolute repudiation of the Oppressive worldview.
Ann's right, and she's been right for months (

THE AMERICAN REPUBLIC IS DEAD. More people want free stuff than care where it comes from, or who has to pay for it. More people would rather be told what to think, than think for themselves. More people care more about the cult of personality than the rule of law.
We're screwed. We've passed the point of no return. Sorry, Lord--we had our chance and we pissed it away. I humbly beg of You that we may learn from this failure ( http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/2012/11/game-called-on-account-of-darkness.html ) and get it right the next time, whenever--or if ever--that may be.
Prepare and pray, y'all. The shit is officially on.
Wraith...over and out.
