First the part about either party not caring about we the people. Well we've done it to ourselves by not paying attention and while we weren't looking the elected officials that are working for us, have taken gifts for lobbyists and taken campaign money from cooperation's that they speak against but vote for and benefited from insider trading and other unsavory stuff. These guys and gals make a 19th century Indian Agent look angelic. The they don't care group of course does one of two things, don't vote because it doesn't matter or they do vote only to send the same SOBs back to Washington because they like the letter next to the name. The former is actually the second best option here, the best of course would be to vote the incumbents out every cycle. The latter seems absurd, you believe that both parties don't care about you, but you will only vote for people from a particular party. Makes no sense. To be fair, it is possible that voting out incumbents every cycle, may take more money for lobbyists and cooperations to buy the new people. In which case the cost will drive inflation as cooperation's will need to make up cost somewhere.
Now the super happy half, well they are all pot smoking, same sex couples that vote Democrat. It was a good day for them, face it, you probably had a good day once and they didn't so its karma or something.
Seriously, as much as this was about liking one guy better than the other, there was another force in play. That force is something that the super sad half need to address before we in essence become an one party nation. That is the winners got women and minorities to vote for them. The losers got older white males to vote for them. Generalizations to be sure, but poling data more or less agrees.

Until that party gets it, barring a Harding-like scandal, they are like these leaves just waiting to be ground into the mud by liberal tree hugging types.
