As mentioned here. But I think this cartoon summarises things nicely:



Kind of reminiscent of Obama "cleaning up" after Bush. (And I wonder if Time deliberately chose that article title, because I've seen it less-charitably observed by some that things haven't changed that much in the White House from early times, with black men cleaning up the messes left by others).

During the election runup, this is what myself and a bunch of other canuckistanians decided was happening in the US. And that the GOP was chucking the election because there was no chance of fixing a lot of the BS.

On an unrelated note, I love both your icon and your username.

WAI THANKEE! :D

I like your robot. It is cute. :)

We had a similar theory regarding the election here... 12 years of conservatives in power fucked up the economy good, and a recession was inevitable. Is it any surprise that the Liberal campaign centered around 'Elect Labor, and you'll have a recession'?
