"I want to remind you that this is a democracy," Susan told the crowd, "and in a democracy we have opponents. In some countries there are 'elections' and the opponents are not real, or are fake."
Susan did not concede, saying that only 40% of the vote had been counted. She looks forward to the days ahead, she said, and she thanked Dow "Gay European" Constantine for being her opponent because, again, in some democracies candidates don't have real opponents, only fake opponents, and Dow was a real opponent, not a fake one, which tells you something important about our democracy. For real.
"In a democracy we vote, and that is what is most important."
There were air quotes. Susan was crying in the ladies room before her speech. An old man cried in the ballroom during the speech. We are running out of mini-bottles of liquor. Susan's sons—who she thanked at length—are really, really hot. In some countries there are candidates whose sons are not really hot, or are fake hot. Not Susan's. They are really, really hot. And in case anyone at the Hutchison party is looking for the SECB because you want to ask us to leave... psst... we're standing over here, in the corner, with this guy...
