A Brief Period of Jubilation

[That was Churchill again, speaking to the British on VE Day in May 1945:

“We may permit ourselves a brief period of jubilation.”]

Let’s be happy Republicans. Look, it’s been a while. There was that awful

mess in 2000 — and this isn’t a mess, it’s comparatively clean. Then there

was 1996 — Aaaaargh! — and 1992. It’s been a while. Break out the

bubbly.
