Republicans are feeling enthusiastic, and believe they're going to win.

Democrats agree Republicans are enthusiastic, and that the enthusiasm means Republicans are likely to win. So Democrats feel bad, and say that acknowledging that they feel bad is the only way to ensure that they regain the enthusiasm lost to the reality of an increase in Republican enthusiasm, which is causing Democrats to lose their enthusiasm.

It's a vicious cycle.

Screw Republicans. Thinking about defeat is not exciting. It doesn't inspire enthusiasm. Think about winning. Get excited.

Remember:

Romney campaign: We're still losing

Oh, and screw the media hype.

I tell you the panic and the media hype of Romney isn't helping.

I mean, CNN's gush fest and MSNBC's attempt to push everyone over the edge were downright embarrassing. All because Romney got on stage lied his ass off, rudely interrupted the moderator and bullied his way through the debate.

Score one for idiocy.
