I just cannot believe it! The result of the US presidential elections, though not definitive yet, is just incomprehensible, like a mini-singularity to me. I cannot fathom what it means for the USA or for the rest of the world…

Before the elections, the rest of the world still had faith in the American people. Its government might have been rotten but people had faith that Americans would realize the mistake they made four years ago (though arguably, they did elect the right president, it just turned out that the current one is not who they elected). It’s been four years of disastrous domestic and foreign policy and Bush seems to be re-elected with more votes than he was in 2000? This is just too much for me to comprehend and I’d better stop ranting about it before I become abusive…

The two bright spots for me: the way Washington, D.C. voted which is how it should have turned out and the fact that Barack Obama won a senate seat in Illinois.

Other people’s reactions echoing (more eloquently) my sentiments:

Hopefully, there’ll be a really nice surprise in Ohio (though I’m not holding my breath). Somewhere in his cave, Osama must be laughing his ass off…
