ELECTION SPOILER: Obama wins in a LANDSLIDE

All this handwringing & worrywart crap.

It means nothing to me.

All the 'this poll says this' & 'this poll says that'.

It means nothing to me...

How can I be so sure?

Well, just LOOK at these fools.

...Who they got?

...What? Hahahahahaha!

...I knew more & more as each day went on that we were looking at the end of the Republican Party on the National Stage. The Southern Strategy DIES in this election. They hold a strong bitter Plurality but no longer a Majority.

Appealing to the Bigots for the benefit of the Selfish Rich will no longer work on Presidential elections after this. Once the Republicans lose the National Stage they will eventually lose the Regional Stages. Either the Republican Party TRIPLES down for 2016 with the same strategy & lose even harder.

Or the Republican Party goes searching for another reliable voting block to pad the Elite (AKA Few) Greedy Rich's numbers for future elections. That takes time & they lose in the short term in search of this new base. If they don't find one in time, they lose permanently.

...Damn the polls. Damn the crying & carrying on...

There are current GOP equivalents running against us just as we had the insane clown posse of 2012. F.U.D. didn't phase John then and it shouldn't phase any of us now. The media mileau was just as bad then. And the prognasticators of doom were just as active, too.

So, that's how I'm going to look at this thing. No more mealy mouthed whining is gonna get in our way. DU was in a meltdown finding everything wrong and had bought into the GOP mantra of inevitability with their big money.

If we believe in people and not money, we will win. They are paper tigers, knock 'em down. We can't give up before the votes are taken. That's be a self-fulfilling prophecy.
