Dunno...the Redskins did lose today.But London hosted the Olympics (same Cracked article)
The presidency will remain Democratic; the natural inertia of the average voter will lead them to back the incumbent all else being equal. Bush 1 lost cause of the It's Time factor and Carter lost because of the October Surprise. Ford lost because he was an idiot and also Watergate.
What matters are the down ticket races. It looks like the Republicans are going to keep control of the house and senate, and only a few Turncoat Democrats are going to burn. So the formula remains the same: Republicans can do what they want, Democrats can't do anything at all and therefore the Reds can wait it out until they get back the White House. Just wave the Freak Flag high until the inevitable.
More like 20.
Dunno...the Redskins did lose today.
Ummm, the Democrats have control of the senate, not the republicans.
The Republicans will have more than the 41 seat requirement, surely.

Overall I just want it over already. I early voted in Florida, my part is done.
I don't think I'll even watch anything to do with the elections on the 6th, I'm utterly burnt out by it all.
I predict Obama will win, and Romney finally reveals that he is a lizard from the planet kolob, then he flies away with his lizard second-in-command Tom Cruise.

Filibusters have their place, as they allow the minority some (in theory) small level of control. If they worked the way many people think they worked*, they would be great. Sadly, that kind of filibuster went out long ago and will never come back because it takes too much effort
*By that I mean forcing someone to stand there and continue to speak until they either relinquish the floor or a vote is taken to end debate.
Why the fuck did I read the comments on that link that Rabbit gave?? Seriously,"Gangbangers" in the whitehouse??Sadly it's not just there. Nearly every story I read has at least a few Tea Party types spewing nonsense in the comments.

It's happened a lot lately, and I wouldn't be surprised if it's happened in the past with Halloween and Election Day being so close together. I remember in 2008 there was a lady who would ask trick-or-treaters who their parents were voting for, and would refuse to give candy if they said "Obama".
Vyper, you're not from California right? It was pretty ugly 4 years ago - not as ugly as it's gotten but it was pretty bad. Though that might be because of the confluence of Prop 8 (gimmie 3 cheers for the Reverse Trojan Horse Proposition) nonsense
But Orange County Elections Supervisor Bill Cowles reopened the polls at one site, a library in the Orlando suburb of Winter Park, from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday.
The library was evacuated and voting there was suspended for four hours on Saturday because suspicious items were found on the grounds. A bomb squad safely detonated both - a cooler containing small electronics and what investigators described as a bag of miscellaneous garbage.
Ballots cast at the library on Sunday will be held as provisional ballots in case of a successful challenge to the judge's ruling that allowed the voting to resume on Sunday.
Ok, so in Maryland the issue of SSM is on the ballot. The law was passed but enough conservitards whined loudly enough to get it set up as a ballot initiative, Question 6. And it turns out some of the local churches are going to station dickwads at polling places to harass people against SSM. So this will be a good opportunity for me to get some questions answered, like how man and woman only is "biblical" marriage when those other verses from the bible support the other forms (which reminds me, I need to look those verses up). And how if marriage is supposedly a religious thingy, how about non Christians marrying? And if marriage is supposedly that sacred, I want to hear an explanation for divorce rates so freaking high. And lastly, I want to know how two people of the same sex cheapens what me and my wife have.
So as you can imagine, I was happy to hear I might get to ask some of these questions. But then I thought maybe I was being some combination of ignorant and selfish. I thought perhaps you guys here had some questions I could ask. Ones perhaps I had missed or you want answers to. If you can let me know tonight or tomorrow morning (Eastern time zone), I'll try to ask them and get answers. And if possible, put the answers on YouTube.
Irish Betting Company So Sure Obama Will Win It’s Paying Out a Day Early:
The controversial Irish bookmaker Paddy Power is certain President Obama is a lock for another four years in the White House. How certain? With over 24 hours remaining before an official winner is declared, the company is already paying out over $800,000 to the gamblers who picked Obama over Romney. Known for its headline-grabbing gimmicks, Paddy Power announced the move in a half-page ad that ran in today's Irish Times and the Times of London. Not very surprising coming from the bookie that temporarily changed its name to "O'Bama Power" last year, but the early payout and the provocative ad still bothered a few people.

Apparently some machines in Ohio have been "malfuctioning".
Is this the right place for this?
So will anyone have trouble sleeping tonight? Me I don't know. I want to believe it will be just a normal day and come tomorrow night (probably late night) Obama will win and all we be fine. But of course there is still that nagging thought in the back of my mind that something stupid will happen. Maybe the GOP will try something out of desperation? Maybe somehow Romney is called the winner? It is just that unknown annoying feeling that I have a hard time shaking off. All I do know though is I plan on voting tomorrow and I know I'll be extra cautious to see if anything I notice is amiss (or hopefully not) when I vote.

In order for Mr. Romney to win the Electoral College, a large number of polls, across these states and others, would have to be in error, perhaps because they overestimated Democratic turnout. It’s this possibility, more than the chance of a successful hail-mary in a state like Pennsylvania, that accounts for most of Mr. Romney’s remaining chances of winning the Electoral College.
That's why they need paper ballots and counting by hand. In fact, it's why they need to blow the whole current farce of a process to kingdom come and start again from scratch. Ireland gets it right, why is it so hard for the so-called Land of Freedom™ to do likewise?Don't worry, they can fuck up paper ballots worse. And the old mechanical voting machines need a technical manual to use them correctly.
Obviously out here in the 51st State I don't get a vote, but if I had one I'd be voting for Jill Stein.
My dad apparently went with a write-in candidate.
A Pennsylvania electronic voting machine has been taken out of service after being captured on video changing a vote for President Obama into one for Mitt Romney, NBC News has confirmed.
The video was first posted on Youtube by user “centralpavoter.” It shows a voter’s finger repeatedly pressing the button for Obama, but a check mark coming up next to Romney’s name.
Sadly (I guess) the evangelical nut jobs weren't out 45 minutes ago. I didn't get to ask any of my questions. There was a very polite lesbian couple, though, who asked for (not demanded) my vote for SSM to be upheld. I told them that I was voting for it, but kind of upset I have to.Now why would you do something like that? Hell, why would they ask for that!?
Voted today. On an unrelated note, the states of Oregon (http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2012/11/06/oregon-election-worker-fired-for-altering-ballots-to-republican-straight-ticket/), Virginia (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3D_e8_h0pAY&feature=share), Ohio, Pennsylvania (http://www.startribune.com/177475531.html?refer=y), and Florida (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/11/04/florida-early-voting_n_2073119.html) are experiencing voter fraud.

Bah, Florida just waffled in Obama's direction so I'm gonna shut up about it till someone calls it.
Last time I voted I was in and out in less than 10 minutes. That's with compulsory voting, so 99% of the Nation turns up. It's outrageous that it takes so long to vote in the US. Surely there are sufficient school halls and infrastructure to prevent it being such a nightmare.You assume that the average American gives a damn. How cute.
I still wish the election was decided by direct popular vote.

Unfortunately my prediction is looking correct, and in this case , I hate to be right.I don't think you will ever see another republican president again. African American , Latinos, and immigrants all overwhelmingly vote democrat, and it is their numbers that are growing the fastest. Add in the ever increasing number of white americans that are on food stamps and government assistance, and you can see, it is just simple math. It is a country that now asks, not what they can do for their country, but what their country can do for them.

Tammy Baldwin is now the first openly gay Senator in U.S. history ;D
I hold out no hope for victory. I have lost faith in my countrymen and I have grown to hate what our society has degenerated into.
The noose tightens and the shadow darkens.
We proceed on our way to societal collapse, the votes of the unwashed, gloating masses of our teeming and filthy coastal urban sprawls dragging the rest of us along with them on their mad, drunken reel down the path to eventual ruin.

By the way, if Puerto Rico actually became the 51st state, it would be the 29th most populous state with 3.7 million people.
That's a whole lot of potential Hispanic voters.
Overall, today has been a fantastic day.I concur ;D ;D ;D

So apparently Romney didn't write a concession speech (http://www.bostonherald.com/news/us_politics/view/20121106mitt_ann_romney_to_vote_in_mass_hometown/).

Also, Christian Forums is exploding as well right now. There are currently a couple of people who are trying to shame Obama supporters with images and reports of drone strikes and the children affected. One even made a picture of a deformed child caused from a drone strike as their avatar.

Well, that ought to get some knickers in a twist. Who do you think is going to cry more, the fundies or the MRAs?

Why would MRAs in particular care about her sexual orientation?
I cant confirm if Washington will legalize gay marriage I have a pan friend out there. A bit of cloudy news. Nate Shiwagana probably will lose.

Because MRAs tend to be most venomous against lesbians.
I believe sometimes God gives us what we deserve. One of the most disturbing commercials to me was an abortion commercial with a woman whining that "Romney is going to take away our Constitutional Rights ... including a woman's right to choose". Since when has abortion become a constitutional right?
Oh my god Fox news is SO BITTER right now ahahahahaha.I just remember Glenn Beck saying that Romney was originally lagging in the polls because when he "eventually wins" it would be evident that God had a hand in it. Beautiful.
So
Fucking
Bitter

I just got back from the DelBene campaign event, and it looks like the Washington State Democrats clobbered the Republicans. Pot's legal, gay marriage is looking good, and we also elected a blind man born to Iranian immigrants to the state legislature (Cyrus Habib, in my own 48th Legislative District).
On a more personal level, I also spoke briefly with Ross Hunter, who is the other representative for the 48th. I'd actually met him before, at the local Democratic caucus in 2004. Mom was our precinct delegate, although she listened to me a lot. When I mentioned that I was "that kid", he remembered me (I was 15 at the time), and even asked me what I was doing now. I also met my own town's mayor. But most importantly of all, Suzan DelBene (D-WA) is the new representative for Washington State's 1st Congressional District. And I helped get her there.
Yumeji, where are you in the state, just out of curiosity?

I've been watching this too since I'm in Washington. The numbers haven't changed in some time, still at 50% votes in, with 959,857 yes, and 893,953 no.

I think that will change once the more liberal counties start voting.

There's a reason they call it King County.

Any big names in the movement express these sentiments? I mean, I wouldn't use Femitheist as an accurate example to judge all feminists by.

Progressive males absolutely disgust me. They have no knowledge of how to treat women. Scum. of. the. earth

Oh, Rapture Ready. Never change.
That's the thing... they never change.
You know six months ago all of those raptard gawdbotherers would have said Romney was going to hell for being a Mormon. Now that the election's over, I wonder if they're going to consign Mittens to the hellfire again.
True... I guess they just never change where it matters.That's the thing... they never change.
Nah, they change on a daily basis.
"BACHMANN!"
"No? SANTORIUM!"
"Fine, ROMNEY!"
They absolutely hated Romney when Bachmann and Santorium were a viable option. Just like the rest of the TP.
If you all want some genuine racist tears, here are the relevant Stormfront threads.

Wow, a Dem actually managed to snag Florida. Must be all the Cubans.

They shot down public funding for abortions however.
I suppose I'd better get to work on PubAd then. Between the Stormcunts and the Ruptureds, It's gonna be a busy week.I'm thinking of doing a special 'conservative tears' edition today. Just go in and start with the begining of the quotes started today... though it'd probably work better if I start tomorrow. Once everything really finalized.
So every referendum on same-sex marriage had failed up to this point, and then suddenly Maine, Maryland, Minnesota, and Washington succeeded on it at once. Wonder what got into everyone this year?Oh, you know what "got into them"... :P

I think this image speaks for itself.
Also, here's a shocker: Free Republic is NOT solidly united against legalizing pot. Multiple posters are arguing from conservative viewpoints that it should be legal.Actually that doesn't surprise me--a lot of Freepers are genuinely in favor of "states' rights" and not just when it comes to healthcare and same-sex marriage.

On a somewhat serious note, what's the breakdown of the House and Senate now?
I'm surrounded by butthurt South Dakotans crying about socialism here.
