Ok, I lied.

I said I'd try not to write about that again.  But then there was this one thing.  I finally watched his acceptance speech this morning.  Couldn't bring myself to look until now.  He was surprisingly nice and articulate.  Why couldn't he have run his campaign like that?  We wouldn't be so stunned and hurt and divided right now if that was the man we had seen for the last year and a half.

Am I more optimistic now?  Ummm, not so much.  He's promising an awful lot of things that will cost a lot of money.  Hasn't said how he'll pay for all of that.  Promises to cut taxes, but where will the money come from?  I guarantee somebody, probably lots of somebodies, will lose something else to fund it.

Good luck, dear America.  We're gonna need it.
