Coping with losses

[liberalkid]

I was playing the 88 scenario last night, and my political idol Paul Simon lost to.. wait for it.. Pat Robertson.

set on hard, and i released all my scandals on him with three days left, all ads on, guns blazing. his momentum was -11. i didn't expect to win, but to get close.. and yet get smashed with a 9-point, +300 electoral vote loss.

god, the agony.

So, my question is, how do you cope with those depressing losses?

I just play the scenario again and try to win!

There, there. You'll get him next time. The fun about election simulators as opposed to real elections is that you can keep trying the same election over and over.
