Because we know Obama's second term is going to be much worse than his first term.

Conservatives and Republicans around here seem to have the weird habit of selecting certain negative stories and celebrating or gloating about the negative piece of information. It must be a sad existence to spend your days scouring the internet looking for bad news to celebrate.

They really are obsessed with that stuff aren't they, and it seems to get ever more petty and mean-spirited... "Do you think Michelle Obama was rolling her eyes at John Boehner?".... "The democrats war on children".... "Democrat-controlled cities top bedbug infestation list".... "Liberals, what's with this obsession about equality?"... and on and on....

Or maybe conservatives are just trying to get folks to be more "optimistic"!
