Never mentioning the fact that HE is the one that turned out the lights.
It's about to get even darker. But we're tough people. We will make it through.

Exactly. This election was won on fear. Those "undecideds"? They gave in to fear. People who opposed Bush on many issues ultimately gave in to fear - fear of the "terrorists", fear of gay marriage, fear of change.
And you are correct, we WILL make it through. The fight didn't end on November 3 - it just started.
