You know what I am most happy about these elections?

You know..... I'm thankful that God sees the hearts of some people especially in how they truly need a little more time to process their thoughts about big events that may be happening in their lives... such as the election which is quite important as it effects all our lives one way or another and that He gives people the patience and kindness to allow others the opportunity to continue to voice their thoughts out loud.... being a kind listener even when the event is over and done !!

That's what truly makes me happy and that it's a wonderful ability that some are blessed that can move on a little faster then others, amen !!

Blessings to ALL !!

Seriously though, my prayer for the nation after this election is that we will become a more loving and tolerant nation to those who may or may not share our opinions on the things that are of a personal nature and that we all work towards what is best for the people who are a part of this great nation that was founded on the concept of government "of the people, by the people and for the people."

I believe it's time to split this nation in two. We are too divided and going nowhere like we are. I would support dividing along the lines of who each state voted for in this election. Then the liberals could have things there way and conservitives could have things their way. We would all be a lot happier. Well the working people would but I suspect the people whose votes are bought with government checks would soon learn that no workers mean no free money.

I really think God is allowing the country to self destruct because of it's sin. It's hopeless with what we have in charge now. You will see much fewer jobs as soon as some of those new tax's Obama demanded kick in. More jobs will be outsourced because of it. I think the hand writing is on the wall. USA is dead in the water. Pray for a new nation to split away! I do.

Most states were close calls, so it would not make any sense to split them according which party won in 2012. Look at Florida for example: a state of 19 million, and the difference was only about 40 000 votes, or even less (they are still counting). Those people who are not happy where they are, can always move to the area which are more to their liking.

YOU are in charge of your life (or sin, as you put it), so it makes no sense to blame the sins of the nation on the president of the country. Your relationship with God is between you and God, and your neighbor should not affect it in any way. If your neighbor sins, then pray for him. You seem to prefer to see your neighbor 'split off' and disappear to a different country, but that will do nothing to improve your personal relationship with God.

Make sure you have your heart medicine close by, Finn . . . I completely agree with you!

Well the "close call" states would just have to go with the states near them that went at least 55% one way or another.

As far as the sin's of a nation, if you don't understand that I really don't care to take the time to teach you about it.
