And so it starts…
Amazingly, the British press has not reacted as viciously as one would expect. We suspect it might be because they are still in shock from the loss. Jon P, who is a member of the press, and I have decided it will probably come full bore in the Sunday papers. The Independent showed its class by putting some unflattering pictures of various crises in the past 4 years, with the headline 4 more Years.
The Sun’s reaction, on the other hand, is factual with a twist of humour. They have some suggestions for Kerry for his post-loss lifestyle. Their upmarket (now only a tabloid) sister-paper is just as neutral on the win, and, of course, the Telegraph welcomes the result.
The BBC is warming up all the usual suspects to bleat about the result, including Jesse Jackson.
The Guardian’s reaction has been less shrill than we expected them to be. I am sure they warming up for some bile-filled rants in the next few days.
Of course, the Mirror has distinguished itself with the headline.. How can 59,054,087 be so dumb?
If you want the reasonable left’s reaction to both the result and the bleating of the far left hordes’ over the top reaction, visit Harry’s Place.
The German media have not been reacting too well either. Then again compared to some of the emails Charles is getting, the above lot are being kind.
