I thought 04 was bad around here during elections..

Tonight, the defeat runs strong on FR.

Quit belly-aching and moaning already! The election is not over yet.

The media blew it in 2000 and again in 2004. Have you learned nothing???????

IT’s A Freakin EXIT POLL!!!!!! hold your cards. BTW, will McCain go after the FRAUD???????

What are you talking about Pa? If so Barone was hesitant calling it even though the other networks called it earlier. FNC has now called it for Obama!

Let's not kid ourselves. NY and CA and Left West Coast are out and they will go Obama. If NC holds, perhaps McCain has a chance out West but if he does lose it, its over. That's 15EV.

Hey! there is David Rodham Gurglen on CNN with Anderson Poofter!

Skeletor Carville is there too! Consumate professionals.

It’s hard, and doesn’t necessarily make sense, to overinvest for the occasional spike in demand on a night like tonight. IOW, they don’t NEED the capacity on the other 364 days of the year.

With that said, there must be ways to lease extra capacity for events like this, however, overall demand for THAT probably very high too, making it difficult or impossible to get.

We need to face reality.

America needs to face reality. 4 years of buyers' remorse

This will be good for Palin becoming the 1st woman prez, IMO

I work at a coal power plant!

Let me tell you what is sad: When I brought up 0's coal comments, I got blank stares and "But he's not Bush" comments.

0 has this country hypnotized.

Thus, ends the Republic.

We are now on the Road to Serfdom.

Realistically (me being from IL), they could call Illinois for Obama and NEVER count the vote. Sad to say, I vote not because it’ll make a difference, but simply on principal.

Then they chose communism, because that’s exactly what they’re going to get.

"A big RASPBERRY to all those fellow FREEPERS who blasted me when I complained constantly during the summer about McCain NOT fighting back, and telling everyone to take the polls seriously... Next time someone tells me that EVERYONE's in on a conspiracy, you know what I'll tell you. It won't be pretty.

I will say one thing for you RomneyBOTs.
Like Brutus, you are right there with your blades against Republicans and Conservatives and PUMAs and women,
from the moment of Romney's suspension of his campaign to the evening of the close election.

GO AWAY.

We might blame our fellow Americans for voting Obama

We MIGHT blame them? I sure as h*ll DO blame them. There's no one else to blame. Forget how campaigns are "run." That's window dressing and a crock. The issues were clear. The choice was clear.
