Vanity: I was wrong and I'm done projecting elections

Posted on 11/06/2012 8:49:23 PM PST by HamiltonJay

Okay, I was wrong so I'm done tryin to call elections. 4 years from now I am just going to say nothing.

How anyone can fail so fully and win re-election is beyond me.

Obviously America is becoming a nation of takers and not makers.

So flame away. I was wrong, horribly so, so go ahead and take your shots.

At least you spared me weeks of anxiety. You, Ravi, Ls et al. comforted for some time.

Now, I just don’t know what to do. It all seems futile.

Dick Morris should do the same.

Flame away? I hardly think so. Too many of us, I’m sure, are in the same boat as yourself.

It has been proved that half the voters in this country are fools. We seem headed in the direction of Weimar Germany.

The losers now outnumber the winners in this country. It’s all down hill from here. We just need to do everything we can to prevent the Kenyan from doing any more damage over the next four years. Today needs to be the beginning of the fight. Not the end. It’s an uphill battle that the Americans remaining in this country need to fight if we love this country as much as we say we do.

Don’t be to sure. I suspect a lot of behind the scenes chicanery. Lots of things do not add up.

Not sending any shots. Two things that were difficult to factor in—the fraud and how many votes the other parties stole from Mitt Romney. Johnson ruined it and I despise Libertarians.

I also was wrong, utterly wrong, with my prediction that "it's over for Obama," made last Thursday 1 November.

I'm embarrassed. I will try never to do that again.

Obviously the MSM understand America ‒ the new America ‒ much better than I.

We must adapt to survive. Not give up, adapt.

Another Reagan will emerge. Things haven't gotten bad enough for that to happen yet. Romney didn't have it, that's obvious. Many here knew it last spring, including Jim Robinson.

Maybe Newt could have done it. I have my doubts. Anyway, it's a waste of time worrying about it.

/salute for manning up, and coming on here to do this.

The sly pundits on TV will slither off the screen for a few days or so, and wait for everyone to forget about their in some cases, horrible predictions.

If any network was legit, Dick Morris would be a laughing stock, wouldn’t be allowed on TV again, let alone even comment on a small town race for dog catcher after this mess is over with. Karl Rove isn’t much better.

Why should anyone take a shot at you?

You merely predicted that people living in a blazing house would reach for a fire extinguisher.

Your predictions were sensible. It’s the people that were not.

You were only guilty of having a good faith in America. ..good faith that Americans were basically a virtuous people who lived in a nation where goodness once reigned. You were wrong. . .we all were wrong.

I’ve been saying hussein would get about 300 but no one believed me. Not going to dump on you but will dump on the GOP because they handed him the election two times now. I said at the beginning of the campaign the fix was in and now we know it was. We don’t have a two party system. The GOP is pitch hitting for the left. Who knows when they switched sides? I didn’t notice until the middle of W’s time but suspect it was already done long before that.

No flaming from me, I was very wrong also.

After what this turkey has done to the country in the last four years and then getting reelected doesn’t speak well for the people of our country.
