This.
Also, yes, it is a direct oversimplification to only go after white people upset. People of all races voted for Romney. I care not for the race distinction but more the reaction. Yes, sucks to lose, but the general public didn't lose! The Republicans lost because the majority of the public chose the Democrats (well,, this time it worked that way). You don't lose an election, you choose a government. The world doesn't end, you don't have a personal stake. Yet so many are over the top looking for doom and gloom over it. How do you go back and listen to Obama and believe in him or want him to do anything over the next four years? It emboldens the Republicans to actively block all of Obama and the Democrate governance which leads to four years of waste (which then the Republicans will blame on Obama and the Democrats).
And this isn't even a Republican thing! THe hand wringing and demonization of George W. Bush was the exact same thing. There is far too much Us vs Them. How the US does anything... it's amazing to me.
