(73,765 posts)The signs for the President's victory were everywhere to see, only if you wanted to see them.
Not only that, but the best indicator of voter turnout was the reaction that blacks, Latinos, women, young people, organized labor and just regular people had to the rhetoric coming out of the Romney camp, they were infuriated.
The voter suppression campaign was the most idiotic thing that the GOP ever thought of, that told everyone that the most important thing to do was vote.
There was no freaking way that black community was going to let down the Prez and Joe. It was never about getting "free stuff" like the Romney camp said, it was about basic respect. Just look at how Joe, Bill and the Prez addressed the black community with a respectful tone and the reaction that they got back, versus the bullshit offerred by Romney, Ryan and Sununu.
The entire scenario played itself out before a vote was ever cast, I had no surprises on election night. Only a profound sense of realization that all of my observations were correct.
Never waivered, never doubted.
