It doesn't matter what you are, belief in America is what makes you American. You work hard, you get what you deserve. Be what you want to be, and it should be respected. When your fellow man is struggling through no fault of their own, you should want to help them. When we are all better, our country is better.

 

[mclem]

is it just me or the old guy from the BBC is awesome? So much hilarity.

He is a Dimbleby. Put it this way: The Dimbleby family for political reporting is, over here, regarded at the same sort of level as David Attenborough for nature documentaries.

 

[TAJ]

In ten or twenty years you're going to wish you were on the right side of history.

Keep saltin' up this thread though. The tears from the angry old white men party are amazing.

Come on, now... They're not all old.

 

[Dead Man]

So. I expect big things now Barry. You have your second term, you better bring victory speech Obama every day from now on. No more pussyfooting around.

 

[Wickerman]

 

[BigJonsson]

Dickin' around!


You tell 'em Chris Matthews

 

[Bowser]

It was too late...a speech at 2:00 AM, that's not good

He's not mad at the timing, he's mad that it wasn't more partisan and didn't mention Clinton which seems really odd to me

 

[EmCeeGramr]

My first post from the Gulag!

lucky bastard. i'm standing in line for government toilet paper. maybe i should say a prayer or buy gold, so that i'll be sent off to a prison and get three squares a day. no working for me!

 

[Azure Dream]

"Dicking around", so says Chris Matthews on MSNBC

 

[Arment]

They've already come for my food. I was given a ration of bread and a bit of water. I'm to work the mines in the morning.

My pay will be the ability to live and work for the glory of the State.

Pray for me.

1 chocolate ration a day. Things are looking up!

 

[BurnOutBrighter]

Give that man a third term!

 

[Newton Crosby]

Please please please PLEASE let Bachmann lose, that woman is vile.

 

[Trouble]

Ugh. Congress does not look good...

A few more years of deadlock?

There was never a chance of a significant shift. However the super-fringy crazies seem to be getting knocked out which is a good sign.

 

[Darth Pinche]

I am so proud that he is my President! What an amazing speech!

Also, did anyone else notice that hot chick in the blue shirt behind and to the right of Obama? She was above and to the right of flag-hair girl.

 

[ThatCrazyGuy]

Lol. It's getting blue.

 

[Srsly]

Sam Wang > Nate Silver

 

[cheststrongwell]

Fuck my life... America is finished and my country men and women are forever tarnished by their stupidity for this communist piece of shit.

lol

 

[j_k_redtail]

Holy fuck??!

Was this a Wave election?!?!?

Fox is calling it quits. Pussies.

#$%^ THEY JUST SWITCHED

 

[mclem]

So at what point was the victory clear? Which state?

Officially Ohio being called, but I think the first *big* signs were from Florida *not* being called.

 

[trh]

No. I need to go to bed. Don't do this to me.

Well, Bachmann just took the lead again. And the counties that are left to tally up have so far been mostly in Bachmann's favor. So you can probably go to bed right now instead of after her narrow victory. =(

138,440 Michele Bachmann
136,750 Jim Graves

 

[Conrad Link]

Amerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrica!

 

[Jadedx]

Are we sure repubs are picking up seats?

 

[slightconfuse]

How long has al sharpton been doing commentary for nbc

 

[LordCanti]

It was actually obvious to me about an hour before the Ohio call that Obama was going to take Florida (and therefore hit 270) when basically every single red county had checked in at 100%, two of the major blue counties were still at around 50-60% and Obama and Romney were neck and neck. The very direct extrapolation was that Obama would (will) win Florida.

Was that first? I can't remember at this point. I am so worn ragged at this point the booze didn't help.

You're probably right.

Well, Bachmann just took the lead again. And the counties that are left to tally up have so far been mostly in Bachmann's favor. So you can probably go to bed right now instead of after her narrow victory. =(

Dammit. WTF Minnesota?

 

[lednerg]

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Chris wanted Barack to start name dropping. Come on now.

 

[AlmostMilk]

This picture is avatar worthy.

There it is.

I've been waiting all night for this post.

You fuel me.

 

[mclem]

Won the electoral AND has the popular vote? Trump owned once again.

In fact, Trump was trumped?

 

[Effect]

He won.

A shame. Can't win them all though.

 

[speculawyer]

"Tammy Baldwin is elected the first openly gay senator"


Congrats. I look forward to the first openly atheist Senator.

Co-signed.

 

[BigJonsson]

What a party pooper

 

[Deleted member 17706]

I've been disappointed and worried ever since the Tea Party movement started, but now I'm so very relieved. Lots of progress for the country tonight!

I'll rest easy knowing that I can look forward to tomorrow. Good night, everyone!

 

[SteveWinwood]

Chris is picking nits that nobody else cares about. Take a nap and be happy.

yea that sounds like chris matthews

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

Hah, the Fox talking heads talking about how the Tea Party is thinking about tripling down on more conservative candidates. Like that's going to work on the national stage.

 

[Wickerman]

I think it has been well over a year now

 

[Xeke]

How is shit like this acceptable?

Anyways, my dad is a grumpy old white dude but doesn't vote based off of his skin color. Shocking, I know

People in this thread were soooo worried abour Virginia too lol

Living in Virginia..............I was worried too

 

[Count Dookkake]

I wonder if anyone is literally crying because the White Horse Prophecy has been denied.

 

[HotHamWater]

In fact, Trump was trumped?

 

[cdyhybrid]

Sanity reigns. Today is a good day.

 

[piratepwnsninja]

So I missed everything. Is CNN still calling this a tie?

 

[LordCanti]

Sweet Jesus, I thought someone was firing on the NBC feed for a second. I nearly had an attack.

 

[FINALBOSS]

so how are y'all coping with our new life in the communist hellhole that obama was simply waiting four years to spring on us

Pctx is in his underground bunker with a gas mask on.

 

[Dead Man]

Hey, good work Wisconsin too.

 

[DietRob]

I wonder if anyone is literally crying because the White Horse Prophecy has been denied.

 

[Synth_floyd]

The speech was good. Not to ruin the mood but he has been better at giving speeches than doing "hope" and "change" the last 4 years.

 

[lednerg]

So I missed everything. Is CNN still calling this a tie?

It's too close to call.
