I don’t think you’ll find my handle on ANY of the threads you reference about “monday morning quarterbacking”. But your lack of interest in researching that would be of a kind with your embrace of wild and fanciful conspiracy theories.
It does nobody any good to live in a fantasy world. Maybe television has destroyed our country, people are way to easily deceived into believing fiction.
You could add up every imagined fraud thrown out by the WND nuts, the conspiracists, and people who are just too eager to find wrongdoing to actually read headers on spreadsheets, and you wouldn’t come close to the vote totals separating Romney from Obama and victory.
When did supposedly intelligent conservatives start thinking that polls of 1000 people tell you the truth? Not that it matters, because the polls told us that Romney would lose — except of course if you changed the parameters more to your liking. State polls, the only polls that matter in an electoral college election, showed even BEFORE the hurricane that Romney needed a miracle.
Sandy was the anti-miracle. Everything moved in Obama’s direction. The economy wasn’t bad enough, 4 years of media convinced a majority that it was republicans’ fault the economy wasn’t better, Romney had nothing to distinguish himself on foreign policy.
Meanwhile, the democrats have a much easier electorate to turnout, since all they needed to do was sell “rich white man wants to help his rich white buddies”, and they had a sure turnout of poor minority voters, who don’t poll but show up at the polling places.
So long as you view the world from your own perspective, you won’t understand why anybody would vote for Obama, and therefore you will be shocked, and assume it must be fraud. Hang out for a day with the “other side”, and you’ll understand why they loved Obama, why they got better turnout than you could expect, and how they won the election.
Or you can continue to live in an alternative reality where conservatives are a vast majority who only lose elections because they are too stupid to figure out that the other side is cheating. Why you want to elect those stupid people, I don’t know.
In the real world, every candidate who thinks they won will fight tooth and nail to win. That is why they are politicians. This bizarro world where politicians are all so unmotivated that they roll over and play dead in the face of obvious voter fraud doesn’t exist, and it’s sad that anybody who lives in the real world could actually believe otherwise.
Whatever you think of the chances of winning an election in 2014, I can tell you with absolute certainty that you will never win the election of 2012, no matter how many times you post to threads about how the election was stolen. You can file that fantasy away with the fantasy that the courts will save us by finding Obama “ineligible”. (how getting Joe Biden to be President is an improvement is always left unanswered).
It is especially hilarious that you are posting in support of a thread based on a fictional reading of the 12th amendment. Conservatives are supposed to know, understand, and respect the constitution. Having a supposed “news outlet” that can’t pass 5th-grade reading comprehension is hilarious, and watching Freepers who pledge allegiance to that constitution falling for it is just sad.
The Electoral College is not going to save you. Obama will be President, now and for the next 4 years. Go grieve, mourn, rant, do whatever you have to do to get wrapped around that fact. When you are ready to rejoin the adults in constructive conversation, we will still be here, because we have a country to save.

Sweet, sweet sanity. Kudos for assuming the thankless task of being the designated grownup for this thread.
