    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.

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

    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)

    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.

    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.

    it's nice to see everyone on here interacting and keeping it civil. :D

    i love nights like this, the excitement as the results come rolling in... there is nothing like in in american politics.

    no matter what happens tonight, let's just keep in mind that we are all americans and after tonight we need to work together because working apart just isn't working....
