Everyone is excited in this thread. I can't figure out why.
I hope Obama fixes the country, but he did not have a plan to reduce debt, fix Medicare, fix Social Security, fix the schools...THat is why I made my post. Things got worse under Obama and the scary thing is he has not put any new ideas on how to fix things in the last couple years.
i think the part your missing is the alternative to obama ... forget about the fact the GOP were basically doing everything they could to screw him over ... the reality is that the GOP nominee was awful ... he misspoke constantly ... he lied ... he changed positions constantly ... he offered no solutions or at least ones that added up ...
i would say the general feeling is that romney did not win ... moreso than obama winning ...

The Romney camp isn't conceding. They're not giving up on Ohio yet. And I don't blame them, Obama is only leading by 1200 votes with only 80% reporting. Why did they call it? They still haven't called Florida and Obama has a much larger lead there. Does it have to do with which precincts haven't reported, are they blue areas?

Exactly, the areas that haven't reported are all blue.

But that's the same thing with Florida, and they haven't called it.

I'm not going to debate issues or policies or any of that. But I will say that to come on here and tell people "you deserve what you get" after an election where your guy lost is snarky and uncivil and uncivic. You might be upset, but go put on Vitalogy and get your angst out like the rest of us. Pretending you're hopeful for Obama's success while at the same time telling people that they deserve what they get is a poor attempt at patriotism, and a spot-on rendition of "Sour Grapes."

and he was a major surrogate for romney and was out front with him in the campaign. if i were romney i would either distance myself from him publicly in my concession speech or call him and tell him to shut the fuck up...

right. romney is a clown. you'd have to be a clown to not be able to beat an incumbent during a time when the country is in the kind of condition it is in right now. devoid of leaders, we are.

I'm not really excited about Obama, but I watched 2 of the debates and heard Romney speak a lot on the news, and I still have no clue what he was about, or what he was going to do. From that last debate I got the impression he was just an Obama clone.

they know they have all but lost...but considering what happened 12 years ago, might as well wait it out just a little while longer. understandable.

Well.... that didn't go nearly as late as expected. I've still got tons of election night booze left.... how drunk can I get before Romney admits defeat? :think:
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata
I am a happy girl tonight. It is so nice to see democracy in action.
What are you happy about? What are you expecting to happen in the next four years? Just curious.
Obama never really told us his agenda for the next four years, so just curious on what the expectations are.
This is what I believe: Obama really does have the best interest of those that make up the majority of the population of this country at heart. He is sincere in his actions and beliefs. I do not see any of those things in Romney, and the thought of him as President scared me to death. Anyway, that is my humble opinion.
Dude said he didn't write a concession speech. Motherfucker is such a bitter prick, he has no interest in giving this speech. I can't fucking wait. If I were Obama, I would call him up.

Yes, it was reported that he did not write one. Obama prepared a victory and concession speech. I do not think Romney has an ounce of humility in his entire body.

He's not conceding. That shows you the level of arrogance you're dealing with.

Politics aside, Romney just seems like one of those guys who has never grown up. He's always been able to buy whatever he wants so when he doesn't get it, he pouts and throws a fit. He's been chasing this dream for a very long time and fact of the matter is, no one wants him. Hell the Republicans didn't even want him for a very long time and the only reason they got behind him was less because they agreed with what he stood for (which has changed a million times in the last couple months), but because they despise the guy in office and he was the best shot they had because the other candidates were complete nut jobs.

Obama should call.
Barack: "Dude, give it up."
I was voted for and was pulling for President Obama, but I don't think this makes the guy a prick.
Reminds me of the first time Dallas and Miami met in the NBA Finals in '06, and Pat Riley said he only packed one suit, basically saying he was that confident they'd close it out in that game and he wouldn't need a change of clothes for the next game. Arrogant, probably, but I was like "I like his style", champions don't prepare for a loss. So I can't really turn around and call Romney a dick for basically doing the same thing. He can write one now that he's probably lost.

Yeah, that cracked me up. He was also pretty funny when talking to the various party leaders and other partisan people, Rep and Dem, he seemed to have very little tolerance for bullshit tonight.
