You should feel good that you voted period. Regardless of who you chose, you voted; and you now have the right to complain, and stir shit up. No one person is going to be a perfect fit with all the qualities we like, etc. We vote for the candidate that best meets the criteria and issues we are most concerned with. As for taking solace in voting where you think your vote has no bearing is the wrong attitude; I think we should consider every vote important and necessary... The media thinks they know everything, but with all the new registered voters and such... You never know when that vote will count even more.
