There are two kinds of people; those who own up and those who don't. Post-election remarks separate the real winners and losers. Alexi Giannoulias was the young democratic candidate running for Illinois Senate. He's pretty much the product of Chicago-style political "king-making."

He lost his carefully orchestrated and excessively financed campaign to a well-respected veteran congressman. Despite his prepared gracious concession speech, he was caught on camera making a snarky remark to a reporter; "[I lost because] not enough people voted for me."

Oh I see! It's the voter's fault that Alexi didn't get what he wanted. Wah, wah, wah.

The daughter of a family friend has never held a real post-college job. She's worked for a friend of a friend, she started a business that didn't make it, and now she's a "consultant."...
