fire you up to work even harder. I've never been discouraged exactly because I love that man enough that (I hope!) I'd be willing to take a bullet for him, even when/where we disagree. But there's deep concern at times because of the unprecedented hateful opposition President Obama faces. And I pray night and day for his safety; that's the only reason I'll almost be glad to see his term of office come to its natural conclusion. Then I won't have to worry quite so much about some tragedy. When he does leave office, I might send the Secret Service a thank-you note, because I know they've had to work extra hard to keep him safe.
