Slightly under half the country rejected their candidate. The Obamedia managed to power him into the White House but the Democrats have found themselves with half of America hating their guts. Even in defeat, there is a kind of victory. Obama and the Democrats have a victory but it is devoid of real substance.

Wow. I feel the same way. These are very intelligent people and the rage at Bush, the total suspension of even the miniscule ability to carry on a discussion of differing opinions beyond 60 seconds, has been amazing!

It is bizzare.

If anyone says anything to me tomorrow at work...I will have to just say “I am a conservative. We have different views..”

My son got really mad because someone told him he was racist because he wanted McCain to win.

Neither Democrat or Republican will be able to solve this economic problem. It will require letting major companies go bankrupt - and lot's of them. None of the 'leaders' have the backbone to explain this to the American public.

The government's insatiable desire to tinker with the economy got us into this mess (ala' Fannie and Freddie) and now they are going to tinker some more in an attempt to "fix" it. They will undoubtably make it worse.

The MSM cannot "award" a state. The Citizens WILL decide.

"Do not fear, fear is the mind killer,
let the fear pass through you,
and when the fear is gone,
there will be noting left but strength."

Has John McCain conceded yet?

Carl Cameron said they know the numbers will fall short and see no path to victory. Oh No! FNC showing Reid and Nancy speaking in DC about an historic mandate!

So has the whole western world. Its about to get poor, skinny, and scared as hell. In that chaos, there is opportunity.

The last time that happened we got stuck with FDR for 12+ years.

So now what? A bunch of evil assholes have been elected. I will sit back and “laugh” at the carnage to follow. I will carry my McCain button and laugh at people as our jobs fade away and we loose our cars, cable, trips and eventually gas, food and homes. WTG!

I admire Palin. However, the MSM smeared her like no other candidate. As a result, Palin’s favorable/unfavorable ratings are 50/50 at best. Not good for a future Presidential candidate. Tomorrow, the most important thing conservatives need to do is think of ways to nullify the MSM. The MVP of the 2008 Election is the MSM. Hussein would never have been able to survive Hillary, Rev. Wright and Ayers if it weren’t for the media white washing his past.

Looking at it from a logic basis, ACORN as I understand it had 500K registrations in Ohio, far beyond the differential in 2004.

But this race is not only problematic due to Ohio but the whole cash mechanism of the Obama campaign (that will never be investigated now) with more money than the total campaigns in 2004.

And he deactivated any basic security. How much of that money was foreign? How much domestic fraud?

We will never know. There is a reason that Axelrod and the Chicago Mob Machine re: “The Outfit” as they are called did this.

They were taking steps further and further out into the deep water. And there was nothing stopping them. Shoot, the media was cheering them.

Someday, it’s all going to backfire though. Sooner than many think.

That means nothing to the democrats. They don’t give a FIG that half the country hates them or their candidate, in fact, they relish it.

We are in for a world of hurt. And the donks that voted for the Obamination, will never admit they had ONE THING to do with it. Ostrichs that they are.
