The lights have gone out in
America now. They may come back. They may not. It's up to us. No one is
going to come help us do it. Other countries have America. We have
ourselves.
Some of our conservative friends
will argue that Mr. Obama's victory thus represents a decline in national
virtue and a tipping point in favor of the "takers" over the
makers. They will say the middle class chose Mr. Obama's government
blandishments over Mr. Romney's opportunity society. We don't think such a
narrow victory of an incumbent President who continues to be personally
admired justifies such a conclusion.
Fears that President Obama's
re-election could send the US over the "fiscal cliff" helped
trigger a major stock selloff and sent investors into the safety of
Treasurys
