It was Acorn, Yes, That's What it Was

The polling company Public Policy Polling (PPP), which had accurate predictions for the November national elections, reports that "Republicans not handling election results well." They nailed it again! To quote PPP:
PPP's first post election national poll finds that Republicans are taking the results pretty hard...and also declining in numbers.

49% of GOP voters nationally say they think that ACORN stole the election for President Obama. We found that 52% of Republicans thought that ACORN stole the 2008 election for Obama, so this is a modest decline, but perhaps smaller than might have been expected given that ACORN doesn't exist anymore.

Some GOP voters are so unhappy with the outcome that they no longer care to be a part of the United States. 25% of Republicans say they would like their state to secede from the union compared to 56% who want to stay and 19% who aren't sure.
I think this is some evidence it is unfair to say that all Republicans are idiots. Afterall, apparently many Republicans did not agree that the nonexistent ACORN stole the election, and also many do not wish to secede from the U.S. You go, smart Republicans!
