It's not the prevailing feeling. The internet has the effect of amplifying sentiment to make it appear that it is more widespread than it is. Remember two weeks ago when Romney was absolutely, no question, hands down going to win that election?

We're going to see aftershocks like this for a little while. Despite prosestations to the contrary, the right is throwing a temper tanturm just like the left did in 2000. Things will calm down soon enough.
