One side wins, one side loses. That's just the way it works. The fact that some people are not happy should not take away from the accomplishment and exuberance we feel as our candidate makes history.

It is time for a victory party! We can celebrate publicly and proudly here. The only inappropriate thing would be taking the celebration to their safe place.

They need some time to adjust, and to heal. We have all been there. Most of them will come around. They will not be as enthused as we are, perhaps, but they will accept, and will work for what is best for the Country. A few will not- and of those, some were NEVER here for any reason other than to disrupt.

We enjoy this victory with all of the happiness it brings us, and then get back to work. We have a general election to win!
