Post Election Syndrome? We’ve got the cure!

Did you wake up November 5th with an electoral college sized migraine? Are you having trouble getting out of bed? Do you feel like it’s going to take you a good four years to get out of your rut? You might have Post Election Syndrome. Well, MSNBC has some suggestions:

If your guy lost, you can also show there are no hard feelings by calling or e-mailing friends or family members, saying simply, “‘It looks like your guy won this year,’” says [Jodi R.R. Smith, founder of Mannersmith Etiquette Consulting of Marblehead, Mass.] Given the monumental significance placed on this presidential race, feelings of despair or the kind of loss associated with the death of a loved one aren’t unexpected. But no matter how the stock market reacts or what your cranky neighbor says about the country’s future, try to get back to your daily routine as soon as you can, experts say. If your party has lost and you’re having a hard time letting go, a “wake” or a gathering of like-minded friends could be a good way to express your emotions.

Like usual MSNBC is sputtering useless nonsense. I have a better idea. Spend some money! You might want to act now before Obama gets his hands on it. And what better therapy exists than politicalderby.com merchandise?

Check out the PoliticalDerby Merchandise here.

Maybe you would like a t-shirt. Or perhaps a PD mug is more up your ally.

Don’t forget, Christmas is just around the corner!

    That is pathetic….. Go outside and beat up a tree, one with good thick bark, and without gloves, that would stop your blues for 5 minutes.

    I guess we can all by a shirt when we get the economic stimulus from President Obama…unless of course, your views will prevent you from spending yours :)

    I’m just happy to see someone shilling something besides my books.

    Did I mention I have a new book out?

    I didn’t believe this when someone told me so I went and checked it out myself,

    feel free to do the same, but the day after the election 11-5-2008 the

    Illinois State Lottery Number for the evening pick 3 was

    666

    this number has been picked 4 times this year and only 21 times since 1980

    the last time 10-23-2008

    I’m sure it doesn’t mean anything…………………………………..
