Distilled Hopium on my end.

Those Rep bastards think they are the only ones that can shape reality to their whim?

Oh yeah!

Well 27% of Republican women across the board are going to vote for Hillary...

Now that's also out in the ether.

Am I going crazy? We'll know by Wednesday!

Damn I'm going to miss the Obamas. Holy shit it's really hitting me. Onion status

they're not really going to go anywhere. They'll still be actively involved in politics, only less filtered since Obama is out of office and isn't the head of the party.

it's not like we're talking W. running off to texas to clear brush and paint his toes for 8 years.

Yes she pushed hard in Ohio the last few days. They must have know it was close and worth it.
Her pulling off Ohio would just show what a shitshow Trump's GOTV operation was compared to hers. If his campaign had an ounce of competence they should win Ohio.

I know it won't flip but the fact that Texas is anything other than solid GOP is hilarious.


If Texas and GA flip within the next 8 years....

If Hispanic polling is COMPLETELY atrocious this cycle, we could actually see a blue Texas. It is the biggest pipe dream but its not completely unfeasible.

Jon Favreau: It was like just anxiety the entire time, just waiting. You know, waiting for exit polls, waiting for results. Because, you know, your brain tells you and your gut tells you we’re going to win this thing, but there’s this part of you that worries: “Maybe we were wrong. Maybe the polls were all wrong. Maybe the right people didn’t turn out.”

Tommy Vietor: A colleague made the funniest joke I heard that day: “Looking at exit polls is like hooking up with your ex-girlfriend. You know before you do it that you shouldn’t. You do it anyway because you can’t resist. In the short term, you’re gratified, and then it quickly wears off, and you’re ashamed of yourself for the rest of the day.” I think that’s how everybody who looked at exit polls felt, because they’re terrible. They’re so often wrong.

Yea depending on the future this is probably the last time Ohio votes blue. I feel it's going to be close. though.

Years from now you may be asked what you did when an authoritarian racial arsonist tried to become America's Putin. Be proud of your answer.

Also this really puts it all into perspective.

Emotions running high right now poligaf. Avoid conservative family members or the "both sides are the same" people like my Step Dad and Brother. They are starting to accept the inevitable and are not happy. Not worth family rifts. Just walk away and then drink the tears after the election. Wish I would have.

So apparently there's some sort of conspiracy that the Clinton foundation knowingly took money from countries that apparently also fund ISIS like saudi arabia? I know its most likely bullshit or something out of context and not fully explained since the only people reporting this is crappy sites like the daily caller, breitbart, and RT.

I dont really understand what this means, I wish there were sites that were actively debunking these rumors and fully explaining the context of the situation for uninformed people who have a hard time understanding this stuff and why its not a problem. Literally all I can find on this is reports from those crappy "news" sites. And there's probably countless people researching this, not knowing breitbart cant be trusted, and then fully believing that clinton is corrupt. If i didn't know to not trust them I probably would have fallen down the clinton emails conspiracy train like so many people.

http://dailycaller.com/2016/10/10/hillary-in-leaked-email-saudi-arabia-and-qatar-are-funding-isis/

Funny thing is, the dailycaller article links to Politifact as a source for one of their claims...which rates the initial claim as a half-truth and puts it into context: http://www.politifact.com/arizona/s...llary-clinton-take-money-countries-treat-wom/

Short story: there was nothing illegal about it, and they (GOP) is simply concern-trolling. Ask them if they want us to cut ties with Saudi Arabia and stop providing military aid? I bet you they say no.

Not gonna happen, but a man can dream.

It would be a nuke dropped right into the fissure running through the GOP.
