I'm a Republican but I'm ashamed at how my party handled many, many things during the last eight years they held power. We had a chance to make a difference, and boy did we! We deserved to lose...any party could have won against us this time around.

Okay now. The Dems are in power, and we have a new president. While I don't care for the radical leaders in their party (I didn't like ours either), I'm hoping that this new president will keep them at bay, so he can get the work done that my party should have been doing.

We need action, and somebody needs to make the tough decisions. This economic situation we are in is uncharted territory, and no one really knows what should be done...it's all speculations. I've been listening to the president and what he thinks should be done and how we should go about them, and I think many of his ideas have merit, because as a Republican they are to my way of thinking too.

I hope the president is successful, even if I didn't vote for him.
