In the interest of fair and balanced, I predicted a Romney rout. Thus my thoughts might need some salt.
I’m just not sure of this three million that allegedly didn’t show up.
Oh, and also I’ve a penchant for conspiracy but I’m not nutty about it.
But oncit upon a time I worked as a Quality Control Inspector, not that I’m proud of this. But I worked constantly with statistics and after a while go to really get a keen feel for how a sample will show the personality of the group.
There’s something so hinky about this past election that I’m just, well truthfully, hand me the sluminum hat, but first, this three million non show of pubs.
Come on. All we hear is about “broken-glass” Republicans, I’m thinking even ole Jim-Rob pulled the lever for Romney under cover of night.
I just don’t buy it.
Also, all of the Romney internal polls....could they really have been so off? Internal polls are always, always trustworthy.
The politicitzation of the published polls leading up to the election....
....lookit, my head spins. But nothing about this election sits right with me.
....first thing the rise of the Tea Party, we make voting at least as complex as, say, opening a charge account, or cashing a check.
I’ll shut up now.
Govwernor Moonbeam Brown....heh, he only respects states’ rights when he wants to legalize marijuana.
Heh.
Hard to be a Sunday dinner at snugs house!Its even good cyber wise!1ol!
Graham is up for reelection in 2014, hence the move back to the right (only with talk). This cretin will get reelected by the fools in S.C.
Go figure,makes no sense....
Well...
"dems" = RATs = unions = Marxists
According to the exit polls whites 65+ voted for Romney 61%-39% (14% of the total vote); blacks 65+ for Obama 93%-6% (1% of TV); Latinos 65+ for Obama 65% to 35% (1% of TV).
I don't see much movement in how minorities vote for the Dems as they grow older. Asians actually voted more Dem than Hispanics, i.e., 73% to 26%.
Oooh! I like that!
Sounds almost like a thread idea. Let them join David Duke and a host of other RINO/RATs and "murder-its"
My niece in Gainsville was in tears that Romney lost. She has “defriended” most of her Dummycrat friends.
My family in Fort Lauderdale are spitting mad.
Illinois, well we are the State of Dummycrats second only to Kalifornia.
You are a 1% when it comes to high-information voters. ; )
The William F. Buckley group of the 1950s (Catholic and Jewish intellectuals) renewed the conservative movement. Until that kind of intellectual leadership shows up, conservatives will be in the wilderness.
You might be right. Immigrants scornful of Western Civilization might be scavenging the corpse of the American idea while we think it might regain its strength.
I pity the FOOLS that will vote for Lindsey Graham!! LOL...
Romney’s son Matt told the San Diego Union-Tribune that he expects his parents to spend a lot more time at their La Jolla vacation home - which, if rebuilt as planned, will feature elevators for the cars.
They call the home Fin De La Senda - which is Spanish for “end of the road.”

I think it is interesting that Romney was shocked that he lost and Obama seemed to be shocked that he won.
Have you seen the Breitbart swing state numbers?
Apparently only 330,000+ votes separated us from victory.
Provisonal ballots still not counted in Ohio with only a 103K diff. This guy (Michael Patrick Leahy) is saying only 1.3 million fewer voters than for McCain. 7.6 mil fewer for BO. I would like to hear more about your uncomfortable feeling re statistics. I am wondering if our gotv really sucked or what.
Agree re voting problems. Challenging due to many courts that are into ‘substantive’ due process instead of following rule of law once voter id laws have been passed!
Makes me wonder if following the rule of law will work since we playing against bush league hockey tactics.
National Review by Andrew C. McCarthy
The key to understanding the 2012 election is simple: A huge slice of the electorate stayed home.
The punditocracy — which is more of the ruling class than an eye on the ruling class — has naturally decided that this is because Republicans are not enough like Democrats: They need to play more identity politics (in particular, adopt the Left’s embrace of illegal immigration) in order to be viable. But the story is not about who voted; it is about who didn’t vote. In truth, millions of Americans have decided that Republicans are not a viable alternative because they are already too much like Democrats. They are Washington. With no hope that a Romney administration or more Republicans in Congress would change this sad state of affairs, these voters shrugged their shoulders and became non-voters.
RINO=DemodratClause, Why vote?
This is interesting but after so many conservatives got it wrong about the election, how does McCarthy know? Has there been a poll of nonvoters? I am not dismissing this, I just want to know where our information is coming from.
