On Winning An Election

People seem to think that once an election is won, that everything is over.  But it's more like having a baby:  Not just birthing part, that's waiting for the votes to come in -- it's what happens afterwards; after the baby is born.  But this baby is 16-years old, and you have just handed him or her your car keys and credit card, and he or she can reach the gas pedal and knows how to sign your name.  If you decide that the birthing was enough and that you can ignore who his friends are and whether she knows how to drive, then you deserve whatever happens afterwards.
