Yep, looks like a GOP house, Dem senate and Obama. Another 4 years of partisan bickering and legislative gridlock.

The GOP is dead in the water if they don't radically change their focus. They must stop running fucking idiots who blither about legitimate rape and outlawing abortion and banning gay marriage and self deportation. They must stop pandering to the lunatic fringe fundies. Jeb Bush said it at the GOP convention but no one listened. Obama needs to energize his party and pull enough GOP support in the house to actually accomplish something and get the economy moving again. If he doesn't then the midterm elections in 2014 could well be a repeat of 2010.

I'm SO looking forward to the end of this fucking election cycle. Cheers y'all :cheers:. Enjoy the rest of your evening. I'm cranking the stereo and rolling a nighty-night blunt.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

I have one word to say about that link: "Snowcrash."

What a mess. I estimated the line at my polling place at over 300 feet long. I spent two and a half hours waiting in line to vote. From a procedural standpoint, apathy is much more efficient.

But I switched back to news channels, because I'd like to see Obama's speech.

It's still a projection, right? No?

Virginia polls just put Obama in a slight lead. It's entirely possible that Romney won't win a single swing state, unless North Carolina counts.

We'll see. :levi:
