We're entitled to celebrate the election for a day. After Bush won in 2000, Gore and his friends didn't even let us celebrate.

But I agree with you as far as the behavior of public figures and Republican politicians goes. They should avoid gloating and over the longer term avoid triumphalism, or they will pay a big price. They should avoid taking their victory for granted, or they will kick the opportunity away.

I haven't heard any of them gloating. Nothing like the way the clintonoids always behave when they win. Anyone remember Bill Clinton's first inaugural celebration, and the way the media treated it?

I don't think President Bush will be inviting Hollywood starlets in to jump in the Lincoln bed.

I agree with Cicero -- this is a belated celebration, the one we were robbed of by Gore and his merry band of lawyers down in Florida -- I think we DESERVE 24 hours--heck maybe even 36 to celebrate -- esp. after the initial disappointment of Lautenberg/Torricelli winning in NJ -- I could do without the "I hope the Dems all slit their wrists and die" stuff...but hey ! whatever floats your boat :)
