We don’t want to beat a dead horse here (or, donkey, as the case may be), but we need to remind you all, once more, not to be Eeyores today.
The Obamedia is going to do to you what they did to Hillary supporters during the primaries — they are going to lie, and float all sorts of incorrect exit polls, and start revving up to declare Obama the winner.
Drudge Report — mark our words — is going to run that flashing red/blue siren he loves to report McCain losing all sorts of traditional Republican states around midday. He’s going to get all of you Eeyores hyperventilating.
The goal of the Obamedia is to depress you so much you don’t turn out to vote. Our friend Astrid always falls for this garbage, and we know she is not all alone. She’ll be miserable all day because she’s never learned to turn out the media and just chill out.
This is going to go down just like Super Tuesday - where the media claimed Obama would win California, New York, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and others…but Clinton won every state we predicted she’d win.
In fact, we were right about every state in the primaries except Missouri, which Clinton lost by less than 1%. Otherwise, we were spot-on.
So, we know you Eeyores are going to drive everyone in your lives crazy today. You are going to panic and wet yourselves and email/call/bother all of your friends and relatives all day. You’ll forward bogus polls and terrible links to everyone, and depress people left and right.
We have no idea why you people behave this way and really wish you would stop. Because we’ve been through this with you since New Hampshire and just think it’s all so ridiculous.
Here’s our advice: take a break from news today — consider everything you hear to be lies. Watch some cool movies (our favorite of all time is The Contender with Joan Allen), eat a nice sandwich, have a nap (or two), then tune into the Election Results around 10pm or so CST to see the final tallies add up and wait for a winner.
The rest of the day will just drive you over the edge — and then you will spread this Eeyore gloom and doom to everyone else, because that seems to be what you do.
We will never understand that.
But, we know you’ll do it, because you’ve consistently done it since January. It’s very predictable.
Just like the election results.
McCain wins 286-252…and America gets its first female Vice President.
And on November 5th, we start campaigning for 2012.
After Gore and Kerry won the elections of 2000 and 2004 so early in the day, you’d hope by now we could wait until the votes are actually finished and counted before getting depressed.........
You guys are living in denial. We need to be buying marching shoes, not dancing shoes.
Yes voting is the most important issue right now but what is to take place after wards is more so. We are losing the philosophical battle on capitalism, in part because we really have a mixed economy with corporatism being confused with capitalism. We need to defend capitalism on every level. We need more teachers who are conservatives with a strong legal team ready to defend them. In short we need to battle them on their turf. We have the advantage of common sense positions and a center right populace who are a bit confused at the moment. Time to strongly support Horowitz. Capitalism isn’t the only philosophical battle we are losing. One advantage we have is that this is the apex of the 60’s radicals rise to power is all down hill from here and soon the young will view liberty as the radical cause to get behind. But all bets are off if we submit to UN governance.
I voted for McCain. and I was going to all along. But when I was voting, my eyes were focused on the name “Sarah Palin”. my heart was voting for Sarah !
As you note, MurryMom is already here, so your pro-Hillary views are redundant.
Agreed. Of course if 0bama wins, you can forget anything being done.
I hope you’re right. I pray you’re right! Still, I’m scared yiou might be wrong.
...If the republicans lose the WH, don’t blame democrats. It will be because the republicans lost conservatism...
