In their gloating over Obama's victory, members of the left are letting the mask slip. Chris Matthews, already notorious for his over the top enthusiasms for Obama, and vitriolic rhetoric toward conservatives, has actually reveled in the death and destruction caused by Hurricane Sandy.

CHRIS MATTHEWS: I am so proud of the country. To reelect this president and overcoming -- not because of the partisanship or even the policies.

And the American people, and I know we look at these percentage, 40% of white vote. Fine. That's about right among Democrats in the last couple cycles, three cycles or four. Good work for them. Good work for him. A good day for America.
