Merica does it right!

[mistermack]

Oh, right, I forgot to ask. What did you all think of the fact that Romney didn't have a concession speech prepared (particularly you Coito)?

He did have one prepared. He just said he didn't.
Any fool could see that he knew plenty of that speech, he hadn't just written it.

But why should he say that he had a loser's speech ready? Why would anybody admit to that?

Left is Right. At least on the left side of the Atlantic

Good that you have so many colourful voters over there. If I got it right, the Caucasians would have elected Romney with flying colours (even the women).

Women voted Democrat, 55%.

What can I say about the result, only one thing, the loony lost. Thanks Yanks.

Sure Coito, it was an OK concession speech. Shallow and empty rhetoric surrounded by thanksgiving. Although I suppose that in a way it was fitting it should be empty as he will no longer have any real voice in the republican party (as the commentators pointed out) in the future. Addressing the issues of the importance of bipartisanship and cooperation in the house in any depth would have been silly. A single sentence was all he could afford I suppose. Speaking to issues his party should support would similarly be a waste of time. Although it may have swayed a few minds republican side if he had made the attempt while he still had a soapbox. That's why I say it was foolish.

Arrogant is obvious. Unless you believe that god is on your side and you cannot lose of course you must have a concession speech written for you. Even if you're fairly sure of a win you should still have one written. It would have shown him to be competent man of industry he claimed to be in preparing for both contingencies. Instead he was shown to be simply arrogant.

What I found amazing was the Romney family.

They all look like shirt models from catalogues. And Mitt looks like a grecian 2000 model.
They all have that look that makes americans buy stuff.

Is that pure coincidence?

Most of the world breathes a sigh of relief ...

Yup...

Fast forward to September 2016 -- Gawdzilla quote, "Obama couldn't be expected to fix the economy in only 8 years. It's all Bush's fault!"

Stillgot nothing I see.

LOL -- I know, I know - you need time to come up with a new line to make it easy for you to avoid thinking.

This is why I call you a hypocrite and an asshole.

Mormons all look like that. I'm not having a dig either, their neat, tidy appearance is one of their better qualities.

We can do something right once in a while. Unlike New Zealand.

Yeah! Damned kiwi barons driving up the price of their fuzzy little fruit.

I've been boycotting that until they start treating their immigrant workers (Dev) better.

I'm quite surprised Obama won.
And to avoid any unwanted visits by the CIA/SS, that's all I'll say

He's just trying to sound mysterious. Not very good at it. The other day he got confused and shit out of a grave and buried a dead cat in his ass.
