dailykos just went down, not working well, I think from a flood of users, getting ready to CRY!

Don't worry. After the posting blitz ends, access should again be available.

They're probably getting tons of Demo mail begging them NOT
to concede!

CALIFORNIA SECESSION?


This is a weird idea I had last night but I'd thought i'd throw it out:

What if liberals from all over the south and west moved to California to the tune of 5-10 million adults? We might not be able to seccede but we could take over the state and in four years, have enough strength to take back the house and the White House just with the shift in electorals. Thoughts?


hahahaha

"Some thoughts on the morning after. Posted by Skinner Added to homepage Wed Nov 03rd 2004, 10:48 AM ET I cannot possibly put into words how disappointed, angry, and perplexed I am right now. The reported results coming out of Florida and Ohio simply make no sense to me. I cannot comprehend how we could have such a massive increase in turnout and not win the election. To paraphrase that little weasel Tucker Carlson: You don't wait in line for five hours to vote for more of the same. Who knows, maybe some people really would wait in line for more of the same. But my impression is that something just stinks here. As EarlG told me this morning: The result is either massively fraudulent or deeply disturbing."

Saw that posted on the front page of DU. I wonder what flavor Kool Aid they're drinking there....

I was reading the DU thread before it was blocked. It was pretty bad.

They shut down in 2002 too.

You can't even register if you wanted to.

I'm a DU mole. Been spreading seeds of dissent for quite some time now.

They did this for a while last night too, then re-opened.

Do you think it is possible DU Admin has a reeeallly good sense of the kind of language which will be coming out, in writing, from their "registered" members? Everything from death threats, suicide threats, all kinds of threats. And then there's the bad language. Good move, IMHO, by DU Admin to Put a veil over this.

dailykos latest link "It's over"...I wanted to post "Elizabeth Edwards has sang" SO MUCH but I am behaving today. I know how I felt yesterday with those damn exit polls.

[clamper1797]

Me too ... clampers would be able to tell which DU poster I am ....

"dailykos just went down, not working well, I think from a flood of users, getting ready to CRY!"

Yup. It appears to be all over but the crying...except that those guys just might go ballistic instead.

[RWR8189]

I have 2000+ posts at DUmmy land, and its very tempting to come out of the closet...

>>"To paraphrase that little weasel Tucker Carlson: You don't wait in line for five hours to vote for more of the same."<<

You stand in line for five hours to keep the likes of Kerry out of the White House.

>>"The result is either massively fraudulent or deeply disturbing."<<

I like any result that's deeply disturbing to that crowd. Note they seem a bit less sure that it's fraudulent now. Last night that seemed to be the only possibility he was considering.

I thought they already did.
