You tried .....
Know what I actually found sad.....not that it changed my mind about him,but Romney's concession speech ,was off the cuff.
Since he didn't write one,he had to speak off the cuff,instead of being rehearsed .
It became apparent ,he always flip flopped,because it seemed as if it was all memorized,and he would forget his lines.
In this last speech ,he spoke as himself,and actually didn't stutter ,and came across as a warm ,likeable guy ,which never came across previously ,in this entire campaign. Not to me anyway .
He's still a corrupt creep ,but he's probably very personable and nice to be around,when he's actually being himself.
Which he never would have been,as president.
My gut feeling on this is,he is not going to go away . He will stay in the spotlight .

America HAS spoken.  They wanted Hope and Change.  They wanted ObamaPhones and ObamaBucks and Eternal Welfare with no work requirements and Free HealthCare and Free everything...

...only problem...it isn't free...none of it.    Freedom isn't Free...and now...Freedom....not so much....not...so...much....

The thing that made me sad was watching on CNN where they'd go back in history for a given county and the county would ALWAYS vote red or blue. In other words, if one of the big 2 nominated an inanimate object as a candidate it would receive about 40% of the national vote...

Just more proof that what George Carlin said is correct. "Think about how stupid the average person is. Then think that half the people are even stupider."

Plain and simple!!!!

Some people woke up realizing they had foot-in-mouth disease today.
The whole working-force at FOX News is twisting and squirming in anguish.

That is satisfaction, but it is just icing on the cake,
The real joy lies elsewhere.

They had Gingrich on CNN this morning. He predicted Romney to get over 300 electoral votes and 53% of the popular vote. Like Bill Maher always says, the Repubs have their own little bubble and their facts are different than outside the bubble.

Edit: True story...Sunday night at work the paper boy (he is in his mid 40s,) who consider himself a Libertarian (he actually said that with his nose up in the air,) said that Romney would win big and the reason I do not think so is because I do not understand a statistical analysis.

This is my take.  My guy didn't get the 5% I really-really hoped he would get which would allow us Libertarians to be on a different playing field in 2016.

But....

I am going to be an American. I am going to do my best. I refuse to give up and give in. I refuse to let doubt and worry and despair keep me from enjoying my life and my family.

I am self employed and from where I have been for the last few weeks, things are looking up. I am seeing more work to bid and I have secured a multi month project for me and my associates (associates, not employees)

It is what it is. It's time to stop trying to de-legitimize this man and accept the fact that this is who our fellow countrymen have chosen. It's time to work together to do whatever we can as individuals and a group to get things moving back up the scale.

I am not afraid and I am not crying in my coffee.  I will do my best to make the most of what I have to work with and in 4 years, we will try again to get the philosophy of Liberty and Freedom into the hearts and minds of our fellow countrymen.

This is just my observation...
The Libertarian party's biggest issue is that they just resort to voting Republican. All around here, especially on campus, there are tons of Libertarians. If they all actually voted Libertarian, I think they could get some good numbers...but Libertarians usually understand our political system and know that it is a 2 party system, so they vote Republican. Good for the Republicans...but bad if the Libertarians ever want their party to be a legit contender...

How do you figure "foot in mouth disease"?
The results of this election do not in any way change how i feel about this admin or its policies.

The nation woke up today and found that more than 50% of those voting are all for turning our nation into a massive welfare state.
Talk bad about Fox all you want but the simple truth is that anyone who wants to know whats going on HAS to go to Fox news because the other channels wont report anything negative about their guy.
If it werent for Fox news America wouldnt have even known about Fast and Furious or the Benghazi fiasco.
Nixon resigned for far less than this President has been responsible for.
Yet no one seems to care as long as they get their welfare check.
I would say God help us all but the Obama admin has ensured that if God does exists he has washed his hands of us.
