Some crazy ass chick on FOX suggesting Obama needs to say he has a mandate to heal the divide if he wins. No fucking way. Lame duck that asshole all the way through.
I blame the Hillary supporters who voted for The Worst President Ever, twice. I am so glad I left the Democratic Party, and I will not return because of the vile progs.
wtf is asshole kirsten powers spewing? obama isn’t going to ‘work” with anyone in his ‘next term’
he got reelected doing little to nothing, why work now?
Ohio and Florida look pretty red. The media is not calling Romney counties that have reported 99%, but they’re calling Obama counties at 2%. And they’ve deliberately counted California before calling Wisconsin, NC, and Virginia for Romney. The media is so FOS.
I know! This is such a nightmare, i mean are people really this stupid, to reelect such a loser prez? I mean how can they not see how empty his suit is? Or is there something i am missing? I just don’t get it. This is how i felt about bush 04 race too btw. And it took 8 years for people to see what i saw about him in less than 4 years….
I am stuck watching *$#* CNN with colleagues, and they are celebrating O’s win already. They have O at 247 EV’s. I just can’t fathom that anyone would celebrate the re-election of this utter failure. They deserve what they get. This economy is now officially yours O–no more blaming Bush. But of course he will.
Who knows what the real counts will be. That will be interesting. And of course as we saw in 2000 after the race was called for Gore, it got undone later.
I never believed Morris but I did believe Michael Barone — and I know he did not lie –he saw potential there.
Turnout ended up being D+6 — Romney needed D+4 or under to win.
Yep, I think we did get D+6. Which means the Republican party needs a complete overhaul. Which frankly would be a good thing. Dem party needs it too, but that won’t happen for a long time. So Repubs have a mission, if they care to go for it.
If a man like Mitt Romney can lose to a man like Obama — who ran on nothing but scare tactics,and people CHEER it, then the people in this country are too stupid for freedom.
And the politics of snarky personal destruction. of sneering arrogance and put downs, will become the new “winner.”
The smugness of Axelrod and Gibbs will be the new norm.
I will not vote for Hillary now in 2016. Bill saved BO’s ass just so his wife could run in2016. Bill is willing to let America go down hill for BO. I am not amused!
It doesn’t hurt as much as 2008. But … what a fucking waste of another fantastic candidate. Both Hillary and Mitt are far better than Obama. I can’t even fathom why he’s such a lucky bastard.
That’s how I feel, too. I voted for Dems and Repubs one. I vote for Hillary and Obama steals it. I vote for repubs and the liar-in-chief takes it. Incredible. I think this is it for me.
this is Hillary winning primary and then losing electoral votes (of course, through cheating) – Juan Williams so happy, saying people still blame Bush – hey,Romney is wining popular vote, Juan!
Bottom line, the Repubilcan party is way out on a limb and needs a complete overhaul. So this could be good and force that to happen. The very corrupt and twisted Dem party will continue down their path for some time to come. So we’re all fucked for a while, esp. women and minorities, they they’re clueless about it. The Repubs can realign and change if they want power, but who knows if they’re up for it.
I answered the Palin charge on the last thread. She wasn’t asked. And she told them how pathetic their campaign was. It wasn’t going to be about who was the polite positive competent. It was going to be about who had the fucking balls to take it to Obama all day and all night. And that was and is Sarah Palin. Romney was too fucking chicken shit to mention Benghzi for christ sakes! Don’t blame Palin, she was ready for the battlebut was told to stand down! Its not her job to change his diapers!
There is no way this is good, for the simple fact of Obamacare. Authoritarianism is here to stay. And Obama’s ideology is entrenched n the Dem party. So Bush wins again. There is no silver lining there at all. That’s the beer talking, my friend.
That’s what has me baffled, the authoritarianism that both Bush and Obama represents, how did the voters on both sides lay down for this stuff?
I told my Obot aunt four years ago to read Obama and replace it with Bush’s name to see if it would still fly. And she hated Bush and followed all the ins and outs of his Constitutional crimes. So why did I even have to say such a thing to her?
I guess Donna Brazille was right. The Dems have youth, black vote, and south american immigrants. If a moderate republican who wasn’t embraced by the GOP can lost than what kind of GOP will?
Thanks to everyone who blogged tonight and of course the klown for hosting. I’m too down to continue so off to bed I go. Can’t believe people think they will continue to receive free goodies when our country is broke. If we took all Oprah, Soros, Buffett, Jobs, Gates, Koch bros. wealth – wouldn’t last long the way our government spends. So when people complain about rising gas prices (you know they will go up next week), heating prices (obama wants to bankrupt the coal industry, food costs, with home value going down – maybe they’ll wake up and realize who they voted for and the true cost to our children and country.
Rove saing the call for Obama is premature, and he’s got some data to support that. Romney not speaking yet at his party, they are still crunching the numbers and not accepting it yet. Counting on rural areas to bring in more votes.
Both OH and CO got called for O? I won’t believe it till the final results come up. But if true, its another 4 years under the bus. And with no chance to reform the dems. R.I.P Democratic Party.
Something is all wrong with the numbers I’m looking at. I don’t get this at all. Many, the majority of counties, have not even reported their numbers yet and Romney is leading in them.
I refuse to believe that O won. With the current state of the nation, I don’t see how that’s possible. Gas prices are still skyhigh, unemployment numbers are much higher than what is being reported, and the US economy is continuing to fall. It makes no sense.
All the numbers aren’t in yet, so I’m just waiting.
Pretty fishy that they’re still not calling VA when it’s a pretty easy win for Romney at this point, but they felt the need to call OH with less than 1000 votes between them.
I don’t trust these numbers at all. Washington for example, only one red county has their numbers in and it’s overwhelmingly Romney. Now we’re a blue state and will likely go Obama, but they’re saying 53% of the vote is in. That’s impossible because only one small county has got their numbers in.
Well, now on to impeachment if this call stands. This will hopefully be the end of the GOPe if they can’t beat the corrupt loser dog eater. Tomorrow I pray Sarah Palin starts a new party. I want to puke!
Wow…kinda just here in a daze….a couple of things jump out at me…first, Romeny still has the popular vote lead…so at this point, the majority of people in this country voted for a new president…yet the old one prevails because of weighted state votes…just like Gore and Bush that lefties then argued about for months…same thing in reverse…how odd….secondly, and interestingly, both Palin and Bush have been ominously quiet…but maybe, rightfully so…Obama has not turned around anything that progs blame Bush for…nothing…so Bush can just sit there with that funny little smile on his face…and, I have to say, maybe many of you disagree, but I still find Palin one of the most dynamic of all the political players out there. I have a great deal of respect for her….something is going to happen relative to both of these points.
Ohio has 77% of the vote in — less than 2000 votes separating the candidates.
Florida 91% in, with Romney needing 50k votes.
PA 85% in with Romney losing by 300k.
Ohio is still ot a done deal in my book
Well – I’m like Votermom, I’ve been the jinx for the last 12 years….
In any event – can I just say how much I have appreciated this place…. and the Confluence before it – and of course our ringleader, the Klown.
I had already decided no matter who won, I was getting back to my life… (F*&K politics, I have real sh*t to take care of… I’ve given the last 4 years to undermine in every small way I could to unseat this fraud – the LEAST qualified candidate ever)
… and that is what I am going to do… I’ll check in regularly (and get my alerts) to see what happens to The Crawdad Hole, and I will fight the good fight for you guys whenever you need an extra soldier… but I’ve had it, I have to look out for my family, and I need to stop pining for this guy to go away – ’cause he’s not for the next 4 years…. even if his administration becomes THE MOST CORRUPT EVAH (and it will – as if it isn’t already on it’s way), the Media will protect him always – they need to be able to write the history books to lock him in as the most historic, and cement the Dem coalition of the minorities, and justify how they are smarter than all of us.
As a poster said earlier this day, “I am a tribe of 1″.
I will always be there for this micro-tribe… but I need to get back to my life.
I m going to bed. Now in 2000 when I went to bed, GOre was winning, then Bush “won” then Gore won but Bush stole it. Not sure what will happen tomorrow.
The President Obama wins it is because the MSM carried him over the threshold — by hiding the truth about Libya, among other things. Sad, very sad. And if he wins, will we ever know the truth?
Rove again. 4.5 million votes in in Ohio with only about 900 votes difference. He’s looking at the remaining votes and make up of those counties. “It may be B.O wins the state, but you have a lot of votes left to go.”
They must be scared it’s so close. Don’t know how they can call Ohio, Florida, Virginia, all extremely close still. And it’s still early for Colorado and Nevada.
That’s what Rove said — Obama may have won Ohio but with a difference of only 991 votes with 4 million still not counted — many in strong GOP counties — they should be more cautious about calling it.
He must not concede. But if a candidate does concede the votes are still counted, right? I think Florida will be an automatic recount per state law (if it’s 1% or less difference).
Now both RCP and NYT are showing Romney winning Ohio, lol. WTF with Fox calling it for Obama. And Virginia and Florida are too close to call. Colorada and Nevada still out.
Oh and also i blame johnson voters in ohio too for making this too close seriously, if we are going to have third parties, then go all the way, don’t frickin just be the spoilers! If it were more like england than it would be awesome. But third party just doesn’t work here when someone really needs to be voted out of office.
If this does turn out to be the result. I will work my ass off for Paul Ryan in 2016. Kill the entitlement state. It’s the only way to restore American values.
What happened to fox? Seriously, i thought i could sort of count on them maybe they just want to impeach ob but they can only do it if he is reelected.
I am tired , and am going to bed , and will dream Mitt Romney won, When I wake I don’t yet know what I will do .Thank you all for being here , type soon ,HUGS
Exactly. And that may be a matter of 50k votes with 5% still to be counted in VA and FL, and 50% still to be counted in CO. You can’t call the election yet. That’s not democracy.
so chesterfield county, suburb of richmond, va and frederick county, frederick, second biggest city in maryland, romney, red! 100 percent of the vote. these are my old homes. and my home now, miller county, arkansas… all romney, maybe that is why i didn’t see this coming of course my old thurston county is big blue in washington state
I hope Romney doesn’t concede too soon. Because he has the character to do it so as not to divide the nation, while Obama would claim a stolen election and demand recounts for months to hold on to power and F the nation.
Okay, Barone is challenging Rove pretty clearly on Ohio on FOX. He’s making sense. I do think it’s over now. Sad to say the coalition of the accountable is defeated by the coalition of the countable. And we’re four more years away from jobs, a sound economy, and relief for the middle class.
No I think we are going down a different path completely. They will have to have inflation to deal with the debt. Businesses are going to hire fewer people and work them more hours to keep from paying for health care for more employees. Other employers are going to keep everyone at half time positions to keep from paying for health care. I wonder how this will affect the 2016 election? Biden thinks he is running? That means the Republican is a sure thing. I wonder if Hillary will be a supreme court judge, I know it would be sort of a waste because of her age, they should probably put a young liberal on who will last 40 years, but still they will have to keep her busy somehow as they have shown they aren’t going to let her be President.
I don’t get why Washington state held back their numbers. That was BS. We didn’t have any polls to close it was all mail in and so was Oregon. They have had most of the ballots for days if not weeks. They could have given us results mid day. What were they waiting for? Permission of the east coast? Permission of the Corporate Media? It’s BS.
People are allowed to turn their ballots in until 8 pm. Nobody is allowed to start counting until then. They are currently being counted, so we don’t have any actual results, just projections.
Yeah but the Corporate Media has made 2 billion they would have never had. And in return for sucking Obama’s ass the Democrats are not going to go for any consumer legislation to give us the option of cable TV a la carte which would force the Corporate Media into a free market which would force a good two thirds of them out of business.
No change, and an unaccountable president who hardly anyone on the left ever questions. We’re screwed–again.
And my daughter-14-has been sitting in a toxically lefty carpool and now is distraught that I have voted for someone who is “against our family and who hates you.” Sh!t.
You absolutely should apply. The government gives away billions but I don’t even get a tax deduction for my house. If you qualify for something take it, that’s where we are now.
like seriously, how could i be this blind. this makes no sense. how can people vote in someone again who has brought our country’s economy so down? this is the weirdest day in my life. i just don’t get people…
Not till the 4 states of OH, FL, VA and CO are fully counted should Mitt think of conceding. Whats the WI count anybody? Man, another 4 years under the bus. Gotta take the senate in the midterms so that O is contained.
I hope Miq2xu isn’t too distraught. He really is a sensitive guy. Someone give him a big hug. It will be alright. As Yttik says watch for the law of unintended consequences. And we all have years of coping skills for dealing with a President who is an ass.
Seriously, I have never tried to get disability. I have a really screwed up bak from working at TSA! and screening luggage back in 2003-4. WHEN I need the doc, the Fed pays, but I never wanted to file because I thought it would hinder me getting a real job someplace someday. (I am a self-employed artist and make my way) I am getting to old to do major murals anymore (it’s heavy work) and now that I know I will NEVER find a job in the new Oconomy, I may as well be on the doll too.
Shit, I hate this.
____________
I’m watching McCormick out of one eye and cannot wait to see these folks riot when they learn Mitt will not concede. Serves them right.
Yes, I’ve already started. Also small first homes in urban areas to rent and then sell. Especially good because they are leveraged with low interest mortgages.
oh god they are talking about race stuff again. latinos and rich white women, i mean wtf!
also, i really think repubs would win more if they stopped putting such an emphasis on social issues. then dem women would vote for them. though i knew mitt wouldn’t touch that stuff. he would have stuck to fixing our economy.
i know they only thing i can think is they really are thinking with their body parts over their purse when it comes to women democrat voters. why are they so scared of roe vs. wade, don’t they realize the dems use it as a wedge issue just as much as the repubs, that the dems are not trying to make it permanent and are using women, gays, etc. just for their votes. it is sickening to me that this many people fall for the dem propoganda!
I have always just lurked as I generally comment at Uppity’s or mcnorman’s but wanted to know if anyone knows what happened to mcnorman. Was just going to check in after I got home from work and the site is gone.
Mom, FF, Votemom, lorac, anthony – let me know.
AOL – I had to go get email – has already called it for their false idol. Is this the rumor I kept seeing that they were going to try and grab it early and then make Romeny fight.
Uppity kept saying the fix was in – but having to live so close to all these bozos I kept hoping things would break. I know no one outside this immediate koolaid infested DC/Baltimore area that was voting for that useless tool – so I am suspicious.
my question is, how high is the debt going to be in 4 years now? i mean this guy can’t fix shit! why did people reelect him! and then in 4 years santorum will want to run again and there is no way i could vote for that freak.
jeffhas, votermom and gumsnapper, you have lots of friends here. Yeah, we got royally screwed. But friendship and loyalty is more important, IMO. Please don’t leave.
Some crazy ass chick on FOX suggesting Obama needs to say he has a mandate to heal the divide if he wins. No fucking way. Lame duck that asshole all the way through.
You’ve got to be kidding?! Fuck that.
They just called NC for Romney.
yep !and Idaho
*settles in to a brand new thread and gets comfy*
There’s no way I’ll sleep tonight.
WI with O back on top again -barely- – 50-49 I think it was – I missed the % in though
fox O 244-193. Has fox called CA yet?
yes
Yeah, they called it for Obama.
This is worse than a Giants game.
They are purposefully not calling these states to depress everyone — the fix is in.
Yep, thats what i think. Va needs to go romney now.
I blame the Hillary supporters who voted for The Worst President Ever, twice. I am so glad I left the Democratic Party, and I will not return because of the vile progs.
My local station is talking about conceding already for prez.
uggggg
Fox News@FoxNews
Obama adviser predicts “they’ll be counting until 2 a.m.” in #Florida. #election2012 http://fxn.ws/VB2lRN
Eastern Time?
I don’t know.
cnn.com O 238-191
wtf is asshole kirsten powers spewing? obama isn’t going to ‘work” with anyone in his ‘next term’
he got reelected doing little to nothing, why work now?
She’s claiming that he won’t have to cater to his base once he’s re-elected, and can work with Repubs to “get it done.”
Yeah. Like his ego would allow that. Puhleeeese.
like his golf game would allow that! pfft
Juan Williams pretends a legacy will inspire him to work with Reps too.
Delusional…
Juan Williams can kiss my nappy ass.
NC is ours, VA is headed our direction and FL is almost in the bag. Ready to party, one way or another.
NC seems to already be counted for Romney – on fox anyway
I was off for a while. Whats happening? Any update of FL?
Not yet
MO for Romney
244.-203 total
Fox calls Missouri for Romney.
Ohio and Florida look pretty red. The media is not calling Romney counties that have reported 99%, but they’re calling Obama counties at 2%. And they’ve deliberately counted California before calling Wisconsin, NC, and Virginia for Romney. The media is so FOS.
Fuckers!
I know! This is such a nightmare, i mean are people really this stupid, to reelect such a loser prez? I mean how can they not see how empty his suit is? Or is there something i am missing? I just don’t get it. This is how i felt about bush 04 race too btw. And it took 8 years for people to see what i saw about him in less than 4 years….
Agreed. Wait for the final tally in VA, FL, and CO. It may not be for hours, but it will go our way.
do they add up to 67 electoral votes?
The Klowns in a bad mood. Gotta tiptoe around carefully.
Fox calling Ohio for Obama. Game over.
They just called Ohio for Obama.
Who is “they?”
Sorry, FOX! I figured y’all knew.
I think CNN.
Fuck that!
They just called Ohio for Obama This is bizzaro America
I am stuck watching *$#* CNN with colleagues, and they are celebrating O’s win already. They have O at 247 EV’s. I just can’t fathom that anyone would celebrate the re-election of this utter failure. They deserve what they get. This economy is now officially yours O–no more blaming Bush. But of course he will.
Fox is showing Chicago cheering.
And I agree….you Obots own it. On a personal note, we are doomed with his economy.
Fox just called Ohio for Obama and called it the presidency.
Yeah. Romney can’t win without Ohio.
This is totally retarded, and i don’t care if that is not pc. We seem to be living in a backwards world.
fox calling ohio for o but 69% in, 50-49,they’re saying essentially obama is winner, total 262-203.
I’m waiting for final tallies. The country can’t be this stupid.
I guess the rest of the country is this stupid and zombies.
Yes it can. Stupid, stupid, stupid.
FUCK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The country is this stupid.
No … just no.
Obama wins.. called by fox
Fox just called the presidency for Obama at 275
Obama 275-203
how could this happen again?
Who knows what the real counts will be. That will be interesting. And of course as we saw in 2000 after the race was called for Gore, it got undone later.
Freck u dick morris!!! Ulsterman too, we got punked. lol
I never believed Morris but I did believe Michael Barone — and I know he did not lie –he saw potential there.
Turnout ended up being D+6 — Romney needed D+4 or under to win.
Yep, I think we did get D+6. Which means the Republican party needs a complete overhaul. Which frankly would be a good thing. Dem party needs it too, but that won’t happen for a long time. So Repubs have a mission, if they care to go for it.
Yea, “Landslide Morris.”
This can’t be happening.
Interesting, lots of other organizations are not calling OH yet. They say it’s still too close and could go the other way.
Obama wins again. How does this happen?
Shit happens, as they say. Who can say how it happens?
He got his base out — D+6 by lying to them, scaring them and telling them to vote for revenge. It worked.
CNN just called it for Obama. The whole thing
I hope Mitt knows to wait until it’s truly over to concede
Please do not concede, Mitt!!! FFS … the votes are still not in.
I hope he doesn’t concede either
i just don’t get it. I totally saw mittmentum, no enthusiasm for bo. What the hell happened? My eyes did decieve me.
I know. WTF happened?
The coalition of the countable defeats the coalition of the accountable.
Get ready for Obamacare. It will never never be repealed now.
How could they want that bill?
This is seriously lame! I wanted him to disappear into hawaii forever. And get off my tv.
well. shit.
And all the polls were oversampling dems to keep O even with Romney…. geez
I think I’m in shock
This is ALL YOURS now Obama. If I hear a single f*cking complaint from anyone who voted for him–economy or anything else–they can shove it.
Same here , because they will complain , and soon.
I’m not sure Romney could get CO anyway from the numbers, so I’m not sure Obama even needs OH at this point…..
Good night America — it was nice while it lasted.
If a man like Mitt Romney can lose to a man like Obama — who ran on nothing but scare tactics,and people CHEER it, then the people in this country are too stupid for freedom.
Absolutely. People are cheering: FOR WHAT? An utter failure of a president. Woo hoo.
ITA Angie. It’s a despicable outcome.
And the politics of snarky personal destruction. of sneering arrogance and put downs, will become the new “winner.”
The smugness of Axelrod and Gibbs will be the new norm.
Ugh.
Fuck you, Bill Clinton, for helping these people win.
I will not vote for Hillary now in 2016. Bill saved BO’s ass just so his wife could run in2016. Bill is willing to let America go down hill for BO. I am not amused!
I concur! The forefathers are rolling in their graves!!!
It doesn’t hurt as much as 2008. But … what a fucking waste of another fantastic candidate. Both Hillary and Mitt are far better than Obama. I can’t even fathom why he’s such a lucky bastard.
Agreed.
Fact is MSM carried Obama across the finish line AGAIN, which means no one else could have beat him.
Bill Clinton is forever dead to me btw.
Both Hillary and Bill are dead to me. Country before party. This was Romney’s time.
Agree with angienc and lyn5. Both Clintons, dead to me.
Same here.
I can’t believe it.
Tragic and true!
And millions of immigrants know exactly what Americans threw away. Too stupid for freedom sums it up perfectly.
Now I hope they impeach him for Benghazi – but if it’s up to Boehner, forget it of course
Yeah if repubs don’t win the senate then there won’t be impeachment.
This is SAD DAY for this country ,and the people who voted him in will soon regret it.
Colorado was called for the POS a while a go.
This is all my fault. I’m a jinx.
Stop that , It wasn’t any of us !
Naw you are not. I think people need to wake up and see ob is that guy who showed up at that first debate…. For real!
That’s how I feel, too. I voted for Dems and Repubs one. I vote for Hillary and Obama steals it. I vote for repubs and the liar-in-chief takes it. Incredible. I think this is it for me.
We should vote straight fascist dem from now on to jinx them.
Ugh. I’ll let you know if I come up with a better idea.
It’s over. The fat lady sang.
The Democrats really need to be fucking stopped.
Sick stuff.
Well , we still have the house!
yes and a country full of fucking morons who will kiss obamas ass in the crack while he and his thug assed friends finish looting the US treasury.
I can’t believe it.
this is Hillary winning primary and then losing electoral votes (of course, through cheating) – Juan Williams so happy, saying people still blame Bush – hey,Romney is wining popular vote, Juan!
So i bet you money they will still be blaming bush in four years. Lazy ace ob administration
i guess i can’t count on finding a job in my new town 
Bottom line, the Repubilcan party is way out on a limb and needs a complete overhaul. So this could be good and force that to happen. The very corrupt and twisted Dem party will continue down their path for some time to come. So we’re all fucked for a while, esp. women and minorities, they they’re clueless about it. The Repubs can realign and change if they want power, but who knows if they’re up for it.
The repubs had the best man and whiners like Ingraham , Coulter and Palin ( yes Palin ) didn’t help.
Say what you will about Ingraham and Palin, but Coulter went to bat for Romney all the way. Every step of it.
I answered the Palin charge on the last thread. She wasn’t asked. And she told them how pathetic their campaign was. It wasn’t going to be about who was the polite positive competent. It was going to be about who had the fucking balls to take it to Obama all day and all night. And that was and is Sarah Palin. Romney was too fucking chicken shit to mention Benghzi for christ sakes! Don’t blame Palin, she was ready for the battlebut was told to stand down! Its not her job to change his diapers!
There is no way this is good, for the simple fact of Obamacare. Authoritarianism is here to stay. And Obama’s ideology is entrenched n the Dem party. So Bush wins again. There is no silver lining there at all. That’s the beer talking, my friend.

I guess Donna Brazille was right. The Dems have youth, black vote, and south american immigrants. If a moderate republican who wasn’t embraced by the GOP can lost than what kind of GOP will?
dont forget the dead people and the illegals
can i just say
BENGHAZI BENGHAZI BENGHAZI????????????????????????
yes you can and so can I BENGHAZI BENGHAZI BENGHAZI????????????????????????
but if it were JUST that , but there is so much more
Romney’s case disagreeing with Fox and CNN call
Romney’s people disagreeing…
CNN still reporting Romney won the popular vote.
I’m sad for my country. Never would have believed this.
Four more years of blaming and playing golf. Fuck it. People get what they deserve on this one.
I’m done caring. Srsly.
I am too.
That is exactly it! He is going to firget about sandy, benghazi, and just play holf!!! Worse president ever! Not just in my lifetime!!!!
911 vote difference, 77% vote in in Ohio, republican side of state is just coming in
Ohio not certain!
Rove says OH is going to still go for Romney
Thanks to everyone who blogged tonight and of course the klown for hosting. I’m too down to continue so off to bed I go. Can’t believe people think they will continue to receive free goodies when our country is broke. If we took all Oprah, Soros, Buffett, Jobs, Gates, Koch bros. wealth – wouldn’t last long the way our government spends. So when people complain about rising gas prices (you know they will go up next week), heating prices (obama wants to bankrupt the coal industry, food costs, with home value going down – maybe they’ll wake up and realize who they voted for and the true cost to our children and country.
I don’t understand how they can call it. I’m looking at states county by county and the results are not even in yet.
Rove is saying Ohio isn’t certain. 900+ votes separating them.
And Mitt isn’t conceding Ohio either, Rep counties still aren’t fully counted.
holy shit, not so fast says Karl Rove. my fucking nerves
people will forget about Benghazi, just a bump in the road. And impeach a black president. No way
True.
Fox News can never complain about Candy Crowley interfering with things ever again. BTW
Rove saing the call for Obama is premature, and he’s got some data to support that. Romney not speaking yet at his party, they are still crunching the numbers and not accepting it yet. Counting on rural areas to bring in more votes.
Both OH and CO got called for O? I won’t believe it till the final results come up. But if true, its another 4 years under the bus. And with no chance to reform the dems. R.I.P Democratic Party.
Ok it would be funny if he makes a celebration speech and then loses!!!
That would make my night if i wake up and mitt is prez instead!
But he will still have the EV’s without OH right?
I don’t know. They just won’t call ca or fl. Or mitt could win with ohio.
This is such bullshit
FUCK!
Can I borrow your spork?
Triple fuck.
My local stationis louisiana based and they see romney closing the gap in ohio too!!!
Won’t matter . It’s not enough.
Something is all wrong with the numbers I’m looking at. I don’t get this at all. Many, the majority of counties, have not even reported their numbers yet and Romney is leading in them.
Where are you looking? At Ohio? on Fox or elsewhere?
Megan Kelly in the decision room in Fox and the statisticians say Romney can’t overcome the Obama lead with to many Obama counties to go.
Sadly, that could be true.
Oh god abc is talking about how wonderful ob’s story is! Gag me. Oh and historic,,, gag me majorly!
Seriously wake me up in four years! I can’t believe how stupid americans are
I refuse to believe that O won. With the current state of the nation, I don’t see how that’s possible. Gas prices are still skyhigh, unemployment numbers are much higher than what is being reported, and the US economy is continuing to fall. It makes no sense.
All the numbers aren’t in yet, so I’m just waiting.
Speaking of unemployment people are going to be in shock when the massaged numbers are adjusted
Pretty fishy that they’re still not calling VA when it’s a pretty easy win for Romney at this point, but they felt the need to call OH with less than 1000 votes between them.
True, they just want romney to concede! Thats what i think.
This is the same games as the primaries against hillary.
They’ve been trigger happy to call for Obama all night long
I don’t trust these numbers at all. Washington for example, only one red county has their numbers in and it’s overwhelmingly Romney. Now we’re a blue state and will likely go Obama, but they’re saying 53% of the vote is in. That’s impossible because only one small county has got their numbers in.
I’ve got the state page up and this is what they have:
Barack Obama / Joe Biden – D840,857 55.5%
.
Mitt Romney / Paul Ryan – R643,902 42.5%
THIS!
Rove is on again.
Tell me what he’s saying please.
Sorry about that, my internet feed went weird…but they got it below.
Well, now on to impeachment if this call stands. This will hopefully be the end of the GOPe if they can’t beat the corrupt loser dog eater. Tomorrow I pray Sarah Palin starts a new party.
I want to puke!
Omg, i was thinking the same thing, i really want to hurl
Wow…kinda just here in a daze….a couple of things jump out at me…first, Romeny still has the popular vote lead…so at this point, the majority of people in this country voted for a new president…yet the old one prevails because of weighted state votes…just like Gore and Bush that lefties then argued about for months…same thing in reverse…how odd….secondly, and interestingly, both Palin and Bush have been ominously quiet…but maybe, rightfully so…Obama has not turned around anything that progs blame Bush for…nothing…so Bush can just sit there with that funny little smile on his face…and, I have to say, maybe many of you disagree, but I still find Palin one of the most dynamic of all the political players out there. I have a great deal of respect for her….something is going to happen relative to both of these points.
Have the OH, PA and FL Results come in yet? Not the projected crap. Whats the lead in those 3 states?
Obama has a lead of 991 votes in Ohio and Rove is disputing the call.
There are 20 countries that haven’t even turned in their reports yet!
Doesn’t matter, won’t need Ohio.
Ohio has 77% of the vote in — less than 2000 votes separating the candidates.
Florida 91% in, with Romney needing 50k votes.
PA 85% in with Romney losing by 300k.
Ohio is still ot a done deal in my book
djmm
Well – I’m like Votermom, I’ve been the jinx for the last 12 years….
In any event – can I just say how much I have appreciated this place…. and the Confluence before it – and of course our ringleader, the Klown.
I had already decided no matter who won, I was getting back to my life… (F*&K politics, I have real sh*t to take care of… I’ve given the last 4 years to undermine in every small way I could to unseat this fraud – the LEAST qualified candidate ever)
… and that is what I am going to do… I’ll check in regularly (and get my alerts) to see what happens to The Crawdad Hole, and I will fight the good fight for you guys whenever you need an extra soldier… but I’ve had it, I have to look out for my family, and I need to stop pining for this guy to go away – ’cause he’s not for the next 4 years…. even if his administration becomes THE MOST CORRUPT EVAH (and it will – as if it isn’t already on it’s way), the Media will protect him always – they need to be able to write the history books to lock him in as the most historic, and cement the Dem coalition of the minorities, and justify how they are smarter than all of us.
As a poster said earlier this day, “I am a tribe of 1″.
I will always be there for this micro-tribe… but I need to get back to my life.
Love you guys always….really.
Me too – gotta go into survival mode.
I m going to bed. Now in 2000 when I went to bed, GOre was winning, then Bush “won” then Gore won but Bush stole it. Not sure what will happen tomorrow.
The President Obama wins it is because the MSM carried him over the threshold — by hiding the truth about Libya, among other things. Sad, very sad. And if he wins, will we ever know the truth?
djmm
You are so right. They put sandy and benghazi under the bus
Rove again. 4.5 million votes in in Ohio with only about 900 votes difference. He’s looking at the remaining votes and make up of those counties. “It may be B.O wins the state, but you have a lot of votes left to go.”
They must be scared it’s so close. Don’t know how they can call Ohio, Florida, Virginia, all extremely close still. And it’s still early for Colorado and Nevada.
That’s what Rove said — Obama may have won Ohio but with a difference of only 991 votes with 4 million still not counted — many in strong GOP counties — they should be more cautious about calling it.
He must not concede. But if a candidate does concede the votes are still counted, right? I think Florida will be an automatic recount per state law (if it’s 1% or less difference).
Now both RCP and NYT are showing Romney winning Ohio, lol. WTF with Fox calling it for Obama. And Virginia and Florida are too close to call. Colorada and Nevada still out.
My mind seriously cannot comprehend this!
1500 votes between the two in Ohio? WTF?
I think Mitt is going to go after this
Zeke Miller reporting on Twitter he’s up 46K. WTF?
I hope he doesn’t concede, this is way too close in the electoral college to just concede on 1000 votes!!!!
Oh and also i blame johnson voters in ohio too for making this too close
seriously, if we are going to have third parties, then go all the way, don’t frickin just be the spoilers! If it were more like england than it would be awesome. But third party just doesn’t work here when someone really needs to be voted out of office.
Right now Romney is up by 2000 in Ohio
djmm
Nice, i will have to stay up i guess!
None of these numbers make any sense to me. Ohio still has several counties to report. So does Florida.
no, less! last I heard it was 991 votes between them…
If this does turn out to be the result. I will work my ass off for Paul Ryan in 2016. Kill the entitlement state. It’s the only way to restore American values.
The only thing different in the next 2-4 years will be we won’t have Hillary in charge at State anymore. Ugh.
OMFG!!! John Kerry as SOS!!!
I want to hurl.
That means lurch will be taking over. So fun.
Oh God, his mug is going to be everywhere. They hid Hillary, but Kerry will be doing cartwheels to get on the nightly news.
There are no words.
There are words. Live well, it’s the best revenge.
Yeah there are. Sarah Palin called it, “told ya so.” 2 fucking billion dollars.
Romney up by 4000 now in Ohio
djmm
Yay!
I hope mitt team listens to rove and doesn’t concede!
YESSSSS!!!!!
*small happy dance*
fox saying Obama ahead by more now in Ohio….?
What happened to fox? Seriously, i thought i could sort of count on them
maybe they just want to impeach ob but they can only do it if he is reelected.
nope nope! They just put up graphic, yes, R ahead right now in O hio
PS: Chris Christie is dead to me. He better stay in NJ, he’ll never get my support – EVAH.
Judas.
Christie is about Christie underneath his caring persona.
I see all these people dancing in ob’s criwd and i am like, you people are clueless!
Barone is challenging Rove on Ohio…
Obama about to remark on re-election. Here come the courts.
I’m going to bed.
Me too. Good night all!
Good night!
That actually might be the best plan. This back and forth is painful
Nite, and thank you for keeping us sane. At least until now.
Paul Ryan is projected to win his house seat which is a small comfort to me, his constituent.
NV to Obama per fox
what the hell is going on? Romney is ahead in Ohio. What’s going on?
Good night everyone!
Good night! Love the Hover Dog.
Van Jones going on and on about how ‘they tried to demonize Obama, a hard worker, a good father, blah blah b.s. b.s.” on CNN. I’m going underground.
hard worker, really? barf. he is the lazyiest president we have ever had!
I am tired , and am going to bed , and will dream Mitt Romney won, When I wake I don’t yet know what I will do .Thank you all for being here , type soon ,HUGS
Good night…and good dreams!
78% of Ohio is in and Romney is up by 20k votes.
????
What happens if Romney wins Ohio? What else would he need?
djmm
FL, VA & CO
Exactly. And that may be a matter of 50k votes with 5% still to be counted in VA and FL, and 50% still to be counted in CO. You can’t call the election yet. That’s not democracy.
That would bring the president;s numbers down to 263?
djmm
so chesterfield county, suburb of richmond, va and frederick county, frederick, second biggest city in maryland, romney, red! 100 percent of the vote. these are my old homes. and my home now, miller county, arkansas… all romney, maybe that is why i didn’t see this coming
of course my old thurston county is big blue in washington state 
I hope Romney doesn’t concede too soon. Because he has the character to do it so as not to divide the nation, while Obama would claim a stolen election and demand recounts for months to hold on to power and F the nation.
especially when the vote is this close and the popular vote is romney…
I think it’s so wrong to concede based on nothing but media projections. At least let the counties get their darn reports in. What’s the hurry?
Okay, Barone is challenging Rove pretty clearly on Ohio on FOX. He’s making sense. I do think it’s over now. Sad to say the coalition of the accountable is defeated by the coalition of the countable. And we’re four more years away from jobs, a sound economy, and relief for the middle class.
Keep the faith, Lola. You never know what’s going to happen with the law of unintended consequences. Myself, I plan to prosper simply out of spite
Unintended consequences…..I absolutely agree.
No I think we are going down a different path completely. They will have to have inflation to deal with the debt. Businesses are going to hire fewer people and work them more hours to keep from paying for health care for more employees. Other employers are going to keep everyone at half time positions to keep from paying for health care. I wonder how this will affect the 2016 election? Biden thinks he is running? That means the Republican is a sure thing. I wonder if Hillary will be a supreme court judge, I know it would be sort of a waste because of her age, they should probably put a young liberal on who will last 40 years, but still they will have to keep her busy somehow as they have shown they aren’t going to let her be President.
I don’t get why Washington state held back their numbers. That was BS. We didn’t have any polls to close it was all mail in and so was Oregon. They have had most of the ballots for days if not weeks. They could have given us results mid day. What were they waiting for? Permission of the east coast? Permission of the Corporate Media? It’s BS.
People are allowed to turn their ballots in until 8 pm. Nobody is allowed to start counting until then. They are currently being counted, so we don’t have any actual results, just projections.
Washington State is all paper ballots now. I turned mine in yesterday. I walked it to the Seattle elections building by noon.
I dropped mine off today in our local ballot collection box but ballots can be mailed in as long as they are postmarked today.
OMG think of the millions (billions?) spent by these two candidates – and yet we have no change….
Yeah but the Corporate Media has made 2 billion they would have never had. And in return for sucking Obama’s ass the Democrats are not going to go for any consumer legislation to give us the option of cable TV a la carte which would force the Corporate Media into a free market which would force a good two thirds of them out of business.
No change, and an unaccountable president who hardly anyone on the left ever questions. We’re screwed–again.
And my daughter-14-has been sitting in a toxically lefty carpool and now is distraught that I have voted for someone who is “against our family and who hates you.” Sh!t.
CO to Obama. NV already called for O.
O about to give a speech
I’m going to apply for food stamps tomorrow. And Medicaid. And disability.
I could qualify for all three
If I just didn’t have any pride.
We could all just agree to live well out of revenge and to prosper out of spite.
I plan too.
Don’t forget to get an obamaphone FF
You absolutely should apply. The government gives away billions but I don’t even get a tax deduction for my house. If you qualify for something take it, that’s where we are now.
LOL thanks for cheering me up. I’ll be alright. I’ll probably get rid of cable. They declared war against me and my interests, I’m not enriching them.
@SetonMotley
It appears @MittRomney will challenge FL & OH. Bc OH, for instance, was called for @BarackObama with Romney in the lead. #Election
good!
like seriously, how could i be this blind. this makes no sense. how can people vote in someone again who has brought our country’s economy so down? this is the weirdest day in my life. i just don’t get people…
Clearly we are all surrounded by idiots, you all must have suspected it before this.
Fraud is the only thing that makes sense.
like i don’t understand how mitt hand the crowds but ob didn’t in the end. what was that all about?
Well isn’t Mitt winning the popular vote? So he could have the crowds but lose the EC.
I’m done with politics and with blogs. This is too depressing.
Not till the 4 states of OH, FL, VA and CO are fully counted should Mitt think of conceding. Whats the WI count anybody? Man, another 4 years under the bus. Gotta take the senate in the midterms so that O is contained.
let’s just hope the Mayans are right this time
Ok. My brother just sent me a text saying the same thing. LOL
That’s the spirit!
No way folks, We will be fine.
I hope Miq2xu isn’t too distraught. He really is a sensitive guy. Someone give him a big hug. It will be alright. As Yttik says watch for the law of unintended consequences. And we all have years of coping skills for dealing with a President who is an ass.
Seriously, I have never tried to get disability. I have a really screwed up bak from working at TSA! and screening luggage back in 2003-4. WHEN I need the doc, the Fed pays, but I never wanted to file because I thought it would hinder me getting a real job someplace someday. (I am a self-employed artist and make my way) I am getting to old to do major murals anymore (it’s heavy work) and now that I know I will NEVER find a job in the new Oconomy, I may as well be on the doll too.
Shit, I hate this.
____________
I’m watching McCormick out of one eye and cannot wait to see these folks riot when they learn Mitt will not concede. Serves them right.
Well I’m going to bed…….Obama is currently ahead in FL
WTF is wrong with people? I think we’ve crossed the tipping point in this country and we’re now headed down the path to Greece.
I guess we should all buy gold???
Yes, I’ve already started. Also small first homes in urban areas to rent and then sell. Especially good because they are leveraged with low interest mortgages.
It ain’t over ’til it’s over. Don’t throw in the towel yet.
have some of my wild turkey klown!
oh god they are talking about race stuff again. latinos and rich white women, i mean wtf!
also, i really think repubs would win more if they stopped putting such an emphasis on social issues. then dem women would vote for them. though i knew mitt wouldn’t touch that stuff. he would have stuck to fixing our economy.
I JUST CAN’T FUCKING BELIVE THIS. Seriously.
I hate the democrats.
I don’t know if it’s over or not. I’m sure seeing some funny numbers. I hope Romney is on it.
But if it is over, look at the bright side. Obama is going to inherit his own mess.
HaaaaHAAAA HAHA! UNDEMURE CACKLE! I love it!
nope they are still going to blame bush, you watch!
i know they only thing i can think is they really are thinking with their body parts over their purse when it comes to women democrat voters. why are they so scared of roe vs. wade, don’t they realize the dems use it as a wedge issue just as much as the repubs, that the dems are not trying to make it permanent and are using women, gays, etc. just for their votes. it is sickening to me that this many people fall for the dem propoganda!
these pundits are so obsessed with ob, it really makes me want to gag!
I have always just lurked as I generally comment at Uppity’s or mcnorman’s but wanted to know if anyone knows what happened to mcnorman. Was just going to check in after I got home from work and the site is gone.
Mom, FF, Votemom, lorac, anthony – let me know.
AOL – I had to go get email – has already called it for their false idol. Is this the rumor I kept seeing that they were going to try and grab it early and then make Romeny fight.
Uppity kept saying the fix was in – but having to live so close to all these bozos I kept hoping things would break. I know no one outside this immediate koolaid infested DC/Baltimore area that was voting for that useless tool – so I am suspicious.
my question is, how high is the debt going to be in 4 years now? i mean this guy can’t fix shit! why did people reelect him! and then in 4 years santorum will want to run again and there is no way i could vote for that freak.
jeffhas, votermom and gumsnapper, you have lots of friends here. Yeah, we got royally screwed. But friendship and loyalty is more important, IMO. Please don’t leave.
