At GOP party HQ, a dirge
Grand America . . .
The GOP's victory celebration is, in the words of state House majority leader Dave Clark, "somber":
"Not much business," lonely bartender Ozlem Kislali says sadly. I buy a shot of Jack Daniels and give her a tip. Kislali's a Muslim from Turkey. She says she couldn't vote, of course, but she was pulling for Obama. I lift the drink: "To Barack Hussein Obama."

You always take a lead from the head of the ticket.A couple is picking out a sad song on a piano and no one is smiling. Utah is still red, red, but you wouldn't know it from this crowd. McCain concedes and it's definitely a Mudville mood. Even Jon Huntsman can't lift the blue haze:
Come on, there's a lot to be grateful for. . . .Amazingly, the Republicans, who are dressed in Sunday best, have a fully stocked bar. Not so amazingly, unlike the casually dressed mob at the Democratic celebration, no one is bellying up to it. (Fun fact: A drink costs $9—twice what the Dems are charging.)
