Florida is going to be another fucking recount. Hopefully it is irrelevant

Florida may be a repeat of 2000. Does anyone think we won't know Ohio for sure tonight?

Florida just broke towards Obama again. They sure know how to put on a show down there don't they?

RFTC

fl nor va will matter if obama gets ohio, pa, wi, and nv, all are heavily in his favor. we are about 1 hour away from a major shift to:

1. close it out for obama
2. it will go on for at least 3+ days, talking recount

the path is far easier for obama either way we slice it.

nbc has called wisconsin for obama...wasn't ryan picked partially because he was from there?

Well, Romney is leading in WI, but that's only with 5% reporting.

Philly? They are using busses there to ship people in from the ghettos to vote, then they buy them lunch!

Philly is a target city to win over a crucial state!

Things here in VA are good, and Romney looks strong everywhere! MWOOT

It's the Power Dance of Time Baby — playing out in the one night—that we count.
AS TONIGHT UNFOLDS, THINK; IS IT WORTH DIVIDING OVER?
Think—how does it feel for you right now? Anxiety filling you up?

Are you rooting for Obama? Then right now, feel what the other side is feeling and think—is roughly half of this nation so wrong? All that Obama has accomplished, are you truly so certain he's got us on the right track?
Are you rooting for Romney? Then right now, feel what the other side is feeling and think—is roughly the other half of this nation so wrong? Much of what Obama has accomplished will be hacked away. Are you truly so certain this won't take us two steps back—yet again?

Finally, are you thinking that just maybe—regardless of who wins, we should think about how it must feel for the loosing side right now? Are you thinking that roughly half of the other side really is so misguided—we must distance ourselves, divide more?
Or, are you accepting the fact that roughly—the other side has valid concerns and
should not be so easily dismissed?

In the Ageless Power Dance of Time, it's a divide to conquer dance move that we
can no longer afford to entertain. So for us, will we let this timeworn jig trump us
once again—or not?

Tomorrow, will we offer the olive branch fully aware—it could just as easily have
been us loosing our hope? Will we finally: come to see ourselves as one—as the
one dance partner that must unify regardless of who wins?
Finally, we will accept that is our responsibility to ensure:
OUR NOBLY ENVISIONED DEMOCRACY IS WELL-ATTENDED TO REGARDLESS
OF WHO IS AT OUR HELM?Right now, it's 147 to 149.
Good night.

if WI goes GOP, i will shit myself. there is a reason the networks are calling WI to Obama already, (the first polls are outside mke, and mad)

I was thinking about this earlier myself. One side or the other is generally going to feel bad. If Romeny losses I predict most supporters will feel angry and then depressed. If Obama losses, I think supporters will feel depressed then angry. Either way, there will be a lot of very unhappy people. The outcomes? Civil war, slogging on down the same old path or moving forward together. I think dancepartner is suggesting the latter.
