There needs to be a lot of 'house cleaning' in the media and in the political parties.

The truth is that they knew Clinton was in big trouble but kept quiet in order to play the last card they had, which was to bluff and hope to sway voters with a false narrative of Clinton will win.

That is collusion; they are partisans and propagandists, uninterested in truth, but rather power.

Politicians should learn from Trump. Fight them, shame them, and label them for what they are.

Pat’s always been fair and not swayed by emotion over facts.

I have to say ‘thank you Julian’ all day too.

Just as the generals are always fighting the last war, the pundits are always predicting the last election.

One of our liberal co-workers is in absolute meltdown this morning. lol Funny stuff.

This guyz just about as foul mouth as it comes. He stopped me as I was walking by (I wasn't going to engage him today) and began lightly joking that I too wore a black shirt today.

As soon as I made a comment....he was loaded for bear.

So, now, it's y'all F’n turn. Go ahead, here's the hot potato, run with it. See how well y'all can do....blah blah blah.

I smiled, place my ear plugs in my ears, turned and walked away. I could hear him runnin his mouth, couldn't understand what he was saying, but he was torqued up. lol

I just walked away, raised a thumbs up.

Hey, I was not going to gloat today. Nope.

Your list is perfect. People forget Dana Perino’s nugatory and holier than thou crap she fed for months about Trump being a buffoon.

Steve Hayes showed how ill prepared he is as a journalist. Almost always jumping on the bandwagon of anti Trump news.

George Will proved to be the pompous @sshat

Krauthammer really disappointed us. He went from the all knowing wise man, to an idiot.

Karl Rove, what a joke.

Jonah Goldberg a meaningless twit

Gutfeld got old real fast.

Geraldo, another checking the wind blowing before he came on board.

Juan Williams, can’t wait to hear this guy today, as he’s been gloating about a big win for Clinton for weeks now.

Yes, this is going to be fun and enlightening to say the least.

Dem’s neurosis will show its ugliness for the next four years because they now have to fight themselves for control of their own political party.

Because Sabato and his ilk have been in the tank so long, they don’t know how to get nor want to get out. They want to live their lives in their liberal bubbles like nothing else is going on. They wrap themselves up in the whitest, safest neighborhoods and college campuses and see the world thru an entirely different set of glasses that the rest of see it thru.

I wish President Elect Trump could give me a job, where all I do is travel the country slapping each of these clowns in the face and kicking them in the nuts, repeatedly.

Yes, they did.

But, they didn't fail at "polling". They knew exactly what they were doing.

They failed to get Hillary elected.

Their gaslighting didn't work.

Here is why he was wrong. He was getting grants from the GOPe. There is no doubt in my mind. He was paid to sand bag and suppress the Trump rise by the anti-trump GOPe at FOX.

The polling industry did not fail!!! IT LIED!!! There is a vast difference in failing and telling a big fat whopper of a lie. They lie to discourage. The discouragement didn’t work here. Trump won. We voted. America spoke. We are sick and tired of the crap of the commies. The criminal Klinton may have won the popular vote, but take out all the illegals, the undocumented, etc. and she loses even that. What are they in this nation, 20-35 MILLION illegals voting. Foreigners making the decision on who is president of the United States. Might as well just let the whole danged world vote by mail, that is what this is getting to be. But thankfully they are in only a couple of states and if you lose Kaliforniastan by 200 votes or 200 million votes, it is still lost and only what 55 electoral votes. That at least still allows all 50 states to vote for the prez and elect him/her and not just five or six states if the electoral college is done away with. I heard Beck on the way home from Walmart a little bit ago and they were talking about that the EC will be on attack now to stop the dims from losing like this, and only the popular vote mattering. That is their next big goal I can bet ya. When the day comes that they control it all, that is their first goal to destroy the EC.

There it is. Forgiving is not the hard part, I can do that. Forgetting? Well, that’s a whole ‘nother question...

They didn’t fail, they lied, twisted and schemed. They lost.

I agree. Even though Pat Caddell is a Democrat, he has always impressed me as honest and ethical, as somebody who can face reality.

The lesson learned here is that if you poll your posse, you’ll get the answer you want, but not reality..
