America cast its historic vote today, sending Barack and Michelle Obama back to the White House while sending Mitt and Ann Romney back to 1954. The election meant the end of the road for Mr. Romney, who had been actively seeking the Presidency for the past sixty-five years. Addressing supporters at the Boston Convention Center, Mr. Romney called his defeat tonight bittersweet: On one hand, I lost the election. But on the other hand, Ill never have to show anyone my taxes. If he had won tonight, Mr. Romney would have become the first man elected President after telling half of the country to screw themselves. Vice-Presidential nominee Paul Ryan addressed the subject of his defeat in characteristic style, telling supporters that he had won.
