Time for a continental divide.
Comment by Jeff G. on 11/4 @ 7:24 pm #
Let me know when Ace gives up the ghost.
Pennsylvania looks, via exit polls, to be going big for Obama. The man who will bankrupt the coal industry.
The Weather Underground returns – in suits and ties and using the moderate language of pragmatic centrists.

Sununu gone.
Good riddance. Of course, the GOP will probably run him for President in ‘12.
Comment by Carin on 11/4 @ 7:26 pm #
I’m holding out until they call PA on Fox.
Comment by Carin on 11/4 @ 7:27 pm #
We’re gonna miss Sununu if they get six more …
Comment by Tman on 11/4 @ 7:27 pm #
Time to go invest in some sweaters.
I’m not too worried about an O! victory, because if Carter couldn’t fuck up the country beyond recognition post-Watergate, I don’t see O! doing any worse. And we get the added benefit of telling the race-mongers to shut the fuck up now that we elected a black guy. Or something.
TO THE BAR EVERYONE!!!!!!!HURREEE!!!!!!!!!!!

Guess we’d better be on our best behavior, for all the progg trolls that’ll be dropping by to gloat.
If anyone needs some background noise while hanging out here, C-SPAN has got its usual excellent coverage rolling. In a minute I’m going to click on the Al-Jazeera streaming coverage they’ve got linked. If I’m not back in twelve hours forget about me.

Much more liberal democrats this time around, Tman.
Lieberman should switch parties.

DON’T BELIEVE THE EXIT POLLS
I just heard on the radio that in one PA precinct the exit poll is OFF by 11%….

paul mcartney
those moscow girls really knock me out
leave the west behind
are they gonna change the name of that city in PA. ‘King of Prussia’
because that’s a really good name for a city

Comrades! A preemptive O!(greasey unionist) sign.
Comment by lee on 11/4 @ 7:32 pm #
Exit polls seem creepy and un-American to me. What happened to the secret ballot.
The MSNBC chick doing exit polls said they asked white voters if race was a factor, 24% said yes. Of those, 30% said they voted for Obama.
Comment by Spies, Brigands, and Pirates on 11/4 @ 7:32 pm #
McCain can win without Pennsylvania, but that blows most of his margin.
Comment by Darleen on 11/4 @ 7:33 pm #
polls are open here in CA for 2.5 hours…. IT AIN’T OVER, especially down ticket and propositions.
So I damn well hope everyone votes
Comment by Pablo on 11/4 @ 7:33 pm #
Oy.
Comment by JHoward on 11/4 @ 7:34 pm #
Darleen has a point, Jeff. Ace says the PA calls aren’t based on vote results. Not that I’d know about it, but…
Comment by Rob Crawford on 11/4 @ 7:34 pm #
AOL shows NO results for PA outside of Philadelphia.
Comment by Tman on 11/4 @ 7:35 pm #
“Much more liberal democrats this time around, Tman.”
I hear that said a lot when the comparison is made, but I think that the country was so pissed off at Republicans after Nixon that even conservatives gave Jimmy a shake or two. Not going to happen with O! since Bush is no Nixon. O! will find one unhappy bunch of Congressional Republicans who will replay all the stupid filibuster games that the Dems had in the beginning of Bush’s tenure. Even though the liberal dems have a vast majority, I have faith that they fuck it up within a year or two.
We can survive four years of O!. I just hope that the repubs have figured out why they screwed up so bad this time.
Comment by cranky-d on 11/4 @ 7:35 pm #
Darleen, that’s one thing I hate about them calling the races early. There are many other things on the ballot besides the presidency.
I think Fox called PA early. I haven’t seen any numbers yet.

I’m still drinking at this point. Gin and Tonic is IS.

I didn’t even have Pennsylvania colored red on my map.
Just sayin’.

Remember when Florida was called for Gore before the panhandle had even voted…
exit polls are notorious

Ohio’s only showing incomplete counts from Cleveland, Dayton, and a handful of rural counties.
Still way too early to say ANYTHING, folks.
Comment by charles austin on 11/4 @ 7:37 pm #
Can you smell the change?
Comment by cranky-d on 11/4 @ 7:38 pm #
As far as the exit polls for PA, we have the fact that the PUMAs planned on lying and saying they were voting for Obama, and the union people are afraid that the exit poller might be a union guy pretending to exit poll.
Comment by VanOwen on 11/4 @ 7:38 pm #
Later, Minority Leader Mitch. Likewise to Bethy Dole. You won’t be missed.
Comment by Spies, Brigands, and Pirates on 11/4 @ 7:38 pm #
Right. I was counting Pennsylvania as blue, but still had McCain down for a win.
I’m not going to start worrying until a state I had colored red turns blue.
Comment by The Sanity Inspector on 11/4 @ 7:39 pm #
I’d distrust exit polls in any state that has early voting.
Comment by Lamontyoubigdummy on 11/4 @ 7:39 pm #
I’m on my first Johnnie Walker Blue.
2″ straight, ice water back.

I’ve voted so all I can do now is fire up the XBOX and try to keep the college retards online playing Call of Duty 4 and away from the voting booths. My Barrett.50 snipes for McCain tonight baby!
If only I could pipe in Phish and create a heavily armed hackysack circle during the game.*

*cough* McConnell happens to be leading at the moment.
Comment by Benedick on 11/4 @ 7:40 pm #
Whoa whoa whoa. Fox has less than 1% of precincts reporting in PA, and they’re calling it on exit polls alone? DOES ANYONE ELSE REMEMBER 2000?! Am I in Crazy Frickin’ Land?

McConnell hasn’t lost
Comment by Spies, Brigands, and Pirates on 11/4 @ 7:41 pm #
I distrust exit polls, period. Some of them were off by nearly 25% last time around.

FNC calling Saxby in GA. Good news if true.

Yea because with 1% of the vote in PA Karl Rove mind control of the outcome is assured.

Comment by Tommy on 11/4 @ 7:45 pm #
Remember that scene in The Hunt for Red October when they turn on the Caterpillar drive for the first time?
Dunno why, but that’s the first thought that came to mind. That and I’m watching the BBC America coverage of this, and their chief foreign affairs man just said, in a positive light, mind you, that Barack Obama is exactly what leaders in Russia, Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq and the war ravaged countries in Africa want to see, because he’s Different.

Fox called it for McConnell and Chamblis.
Start the filibuster first thing tomorrow, boys, and don’t let up until 2013.
Comment by cranky-d on 11/4 @ 7:46 pm #
Perhaps the moderate Rs lost support of the base. McCain has most of the base because of Palin.
Comment by pdbuttons on 11/4 @ 7:46 pm #

until then…
Comment by Pablo on 11/4 @ 7:46 pm #
O! has a 5000 vote lead with 1% in, mostly Philly, and they’re calling it? Count the bitter clingers, bitches!
Comment by lee on 11/4 @ 7:47 pm #
Jeff, FOX has McCain up in the popular vote, 50%-49%.
Isn’t that worth anything.
Anything at all?
Comment by Darleen on 11/4 @ 7:47 pm #
JeffG
Before Palin, McCain would have been losing by 15-20 points. This WAS supposed to be a Democrat cycle. Even if McCain loses tonight, it is no Obama landslide even inspite of the outright fraud, deceipt and chicanery
and that’s just within the ankle-licking pro-Obama media!
Comment by Benedick on 11/4 @ 7:47 pm #
Stop with negative. Official returns remain scant at this moment.

The proudest moment is not victory, but coming back to win after defeat.
The Long War continues.
No, not the one against Islam.
Cold War II, home edition.
At my new job one of my car pool buds is a Mexican native; we’ve only known each other two days but tonight we were homeward bound listening to the radio talk about Obama’s chances.
“What the f*ck are those people thinking??” he blurted.
He’s pretty concerned what a depression here will manifest as south of the border. I feel his pain. I really do.
I love you guys. I’m starting at five a.m. until I get fully up to speed on my equipment and get a feel for the pace of production and the crews that I will support.
Oh, Lisa: WOLVERINES!
Comment by charles austin on 11/4 @ 7:52 pm #
Our only real hope is that Obama loses the popular vote so that his claim of a mandate is diminished. Not that it will matter one whit.
Comment by Rob Crawford on 11/4 @ 7:52 pm #
Yeah, calling a state with essentially 0% of the votes counted is assinine.
Comment by Benedick on 11/4 @ 7:52 pm #

If The One is elected I’m going to be reducing my economic footprint … barter, trade, cash, vegetable garden, swap services, etc.
I need to keep my current job, but I won’t be moving into creating any new business for Obama to use as one of his cash cows to pay Peggy Joseph’s mortgage and gas.

Barone explained why Fox called PA for Obama: the WPE, taken into account, still puts Obama outside the margin of error.

Darlene – Thanks!
Jeff – I’m confused by the calls. If they have 200,000 votes counted in PA, I don’t much care about the difference between the exit polls in North Philly and the actual votes in North Philly. Our state is an olive loaf — not a consistent consistency.

As to the election: Rachel Maddow playing the voice of reason is fun to watch. She’s like Obama: highly partisan but not excitable. Nice contrast to the others. Loved watching DeLay get complimented on his hate after his prediction of a doubled minimum wage in six months. Why wasn’t that a pre-election talking point? Oh yeah, it’s fucking absurd.

And I for one gained a new appreciation for what McCain has been through in his life when I compared to fucking Fox fawning over how Obama had to sleep in an alley one night, ONE NIGHT! when he transferred to Columbia. You see, he didn’t have the key to his apartment yet so he had to sleep in an alley. Wow, what an American story. A guy sleeps in an alley one night and then he’s president. Only in America.
Yeah. 5 1/2 years hanging from his arms behind his back and these fucking dipshits pick the autobiographer who braved an alley for one night. What a nightmare.

We all knew this was prolly gonna happen. But, on the bright side (let’s be optimistic) is McCain had won it would have been one of the final nails in the coffin, and we all KNEW that. He was a weak Republican, and would have simply brought on more bad policy – more moderate than that which O! will bring upon us, but when it’s a Rethug doing it, fiscal responsibility suddenly becomes priority one.
How long before we hear word about the deficit again? Unless, of course, we’re talking about raising taxes.
If Mc Cain had one, the BDS would have gone on and on, and who the knows what else. A baracky win could be a “cure.” A cure for those who would have only be more solidified in their hate had he lost.
Filibuster. It’s gonna be our best friend should we retain it.

This conutry is NOT center-left. I do believe a great many O! votes were from people who are not aware of what he is.
I think it is even less about that. People do not care what Baracky’s positions are, obviously. They are just voting against Bush, and due to great marketing, see McCain as the Bush stand-in. Baracky was just the empty vessel for “change”.
Comment by jon on 11/4 @ 8:38 pm #
Why is “networks” in quotes, Darleen? Do they start and stop in your living room? Is it a TV Guide conspiracy that they are available elsewhere? Just curious.
But as to your question, it has something to do with polls and their trust in them. They’re being much more cautious than in past elections, but there hasn’t really been any major snafus involved in their believability except in those who didn’t want to believe. I was there four years ago, and it sucked. But reality must set in, even when it’s not the one we wished for.

O! basically bought the election. His money advantage was overwhelming, and allowed him to blanket the nation with ads that he would otherwise have been unable to afford…
And of course, NO-ONE in the MSM would do more than pay lip service to him breaking his high-minded rhetorical dedication to the ideals of public financing…Just another one of his flip-flops…
And through all the flipping and policy, and personal history explanation, evolutions, all the media would do is simply characterize it as something all politicians would do-they all run to the center in the general…
And in doing that, through the caracturization and diminution of the ethics of all politicians that preceeded him, they essentially said that character, principles, and integrity didn’t matter one bit…

Rob Reed,
One of the surprises this election was that the given (and seemingly logical) reason Obama gave for not wanting public financing (and I won’t pretend that his massive amount of donors wasn’t the influential reason) was the fear of 527 groups using outside funding to Swiftboat him. When those groups didn’t appear and McCain didn’t really go after Obama, all that was left was an ineffectual Palin attacking Obama. But having an Alaskan attack someone for socialism is ineffectual especially after she bragged about windfall profits taxes on oil companies and threw all Alaskans a $3200 bone to chew on.

It was a shrewd move indeed for them to short the market to it’s Knees just 6 weeks before the election…
They didn’t have to sell it all the way down, just enough to get the ball rolling, and then let the momentum of fear surrounding the credit crunch take it the rest of the way down…
Now with O! winning, they’ll ease up and let it appear that imprimatur of O!s ascendance has calmed the roiling waters of finance…

jon,
A large portion of O!s monies will turn out to be illegal, especially those highly touted small donors…
It will quietly be announced, and of course there’ll be NO investigation-although the FEC will amazingly be restaffed-by either the DOJ or FEC; because of the hypocrisy…
So, in addition to the non-vetting of O! by the media thay will have covered the fact that the majority of his gargantuan war chest was given by lobbyists, trial attorneys, unions, and Wall street fat cats; the very people he swore to keep himself unbeholden to…
Again, the hypocrisy…

Gore’s screaming “he played on our fears!!” (After which Gore goes on a global warming fearzilla campaign. Fuck you, Al.) Their theatrics makes for a good Bill Clinton rehabilitation long before you wanted one. He’s looking like a splendid centrist and pragmatist compared to these snakes.

Universal suffrage is universally stupid. Having taught science subjects in public high school and college, I can attest to the 80/20 Rule: 80% are too stupid or lazy to do the work, 20% will have the combination of intelligence and effort to succeed. 20% of my customers produce 80% of my business. Obama succeeded in getting out teh stupid vote. They are his base, just like a high school election.

That’s right Carin,
Just like Billy Jeff did six weeks after inauguration, when he raised taxes on the very people he promised to cut them for-the promise that allowed him to edge big Bush…
I can already hear him; “That tax cut is not the tax cut I used to promise…”

By the way, here’s some of the lyrics form the Duire Strait’s song thosr just gleefully quoted:
I’m just an aging drummer boy,
And in the wars I used to play.
And I’ve called the tune
To many a torture session.
Now they say I am a war criminal,
And I’m fading away,
Father, please her my confession.
I have legalised robbery,
Called it belief.
I have run with the money,
And hid like a thief.
I have re-written history
With my armies and my crooks.
Invented memories,
I did burn all the books.
And I can still hear his laughter,
And I can still hear his song,
The man’s too big,
The man’s too strong!
You can’t make this hit up, ya know?

I would also like to direct you to the definite possibility of the government forcing your children into a “summer camp” that will “teach” them the greatness of socialism I am guessing sometime around 2010. Finally, I will direct you to the insane amount of small businesses that will go under in the next few years because they are 250,000 dollar millionaires.

Stop the ragging on McCain. He’s a good, decent man who fought this campaign a hell of a lot better than any other Republican candidate could have. He deserved to win, and he deserves our respect for trying.
Obama, on the other hand, deserves nothing. He won this election by deception, media bias, and (quite likely) vote fraud. For the next four years he gets nothing but contempt and insults. Let the Democrats see what it’s like.
Remember: from this moment on, EVERYTHING IS HIS FAULT.

The only wealth I have is what I’ve bargained and traded for, cynn. I’ve never taken a subsidy, unemployment, welfare, AFDC, Social Security, a student loan, Pell grant or any other government handout. I have, on the other hand, paid hundreds and hundreds of thousands (if not over a million) into various levels of government for others to get these things.

Of course, truly scary times are the times when people man up to take care of their own, the problem being of course, just as with 9/11, they always wait until it’s too late to prevent serious damage and loss of life.

Trimegistus,
I agree with you completely, but we must not be as petty and small minded as the left has been…
Instead of all the name calling and he’s not my president crap, let’s instead restrict our rancor, indignation, skepticism, and invective for really the really serious issues…
And we must absolutely BAN the MSM, including commercial programming…
But you’re right about one thing; everything is his fault from now on!

So, any bets on who’s going to test The One first? Remember Joe’s prediction?
Any hope George Bush had of a successful presidency ended less than nine months after he was sworn in. Now that President-elect Obama has an agreeable Congress and all this goodwill from around the world, I’ll give him eight months to make everything, and I mean fucking everything right. If it isn’t all children flying kites and rivers of flowing chocolate in eight months, then I hold him completely and totally responsible for squandering the goodwill of the people of the world and not making everything perfect. And no complaints about not knowing how bad it was messed up. You’re the man now. You asked for the job and you’ve got the power to do whatever you want. You even got sub $2 gas to work with. So, I’m going to lie low for a while and check back about ten months from now and see how its going. Don’t let me down.

I gotta say. Reading this thread is just making me so happy that all you guys are so sad :(
McCain ran a horrible campaign. It was dirty right down to the end (Black Panthers in PA, Castro “endorsing” BHO in FL). It is my hope that Americans are done with that. The America I envision is the one in Grant Park right now. All the GOP has left are Southern whites and some Mountain West stragglers. The tide is turning everywhere else. Well, except Utah. All of your wingnut anti-choice measures are failing in red states. Sensible crime and drug policy measures are winning nationwide. We’ll have 58-59 senate seats, with a great looking map in 2010.
Oh, and all the anti-Bush sentiment was, you know, kind of based on something: namely, his job performance. Gitmo, Abu Ghraib, sanctioning torture, that war in um … that one place, plus gutting the EPA, politicizing the Justice Dept., US Attorney firings, Cheney. Bush’s favorables have been in the 20s for months, the lowest of any president including Nixon. Meanwhile, BHO has the highest favorables of any incoming candidate in … ever.
You are in the minority, and all the people who hate intelligence and think the earth is 6000 years old are on your side. Obama carried college-educated whites.
See you at the gun shop, losers.

You know what makes me sad? Thinking about my parents. They’re in their late 60s. They instilled in me all the right stuff about right and wrong, about liberty and individual responsibility as the core American principles. I think I kind of worried them when I did the standard freshman detour in college and tried on a liberal hat for a bit. But then I made them happy when I quietly returned to the fold in my 20s, though they’d never be so presumptuous as to put it like that. Politics wasn’t a pastime or lifestyle for them. Things just were what they were.
All that individual liberty and responsibility stuff… That’s their America. Now they head into their final years, saddled with bearing witness to this. Not too long from now they’ll be closing their eyes, and their America won’t have been the last thing they saw.
That makes me sad, yeah.

O! couldn’t play it straight up-as always throughout his career…
From using litigious action to disqualify his Chicago political opponents, to painting the Clintons as racists, to breaking his pledge to use public election funds and then reneging…
As always, he had a tactical leg up on his opponents…
And before anyone talks about him needing it to balance the a priori deficit of his race-don’t even go there…
In modern, hip-hop, America, where suburban white kids are taught to despise their forebears, and instead of learning the glorious moments of their nations history focus instead on the horrors of the middle passage, and are essentially taught to hate themselves, as well as consider themselves unconsciously racist; O!s race was an asset to him, when combined with his campaigns strategic decision to play the race card at will…
He stole this election, just as much as Booooooosh “stole” it in 2000. The left is just fortunate that very much like McCain, the rest of us are bound by our character and integrity to not engage in the same kind of smear campaign amd diminishing of their opponents, the New Politics version of the same old Clintonian politics of personal destruction, that they have engaged in over the last 8 years…
On the other hand, we could just start our own version of the vile daily Kos…

We’ll see. But all you folks coming up with apocalyptic visions, fahgeddaboudit. That ain’t how you boil a frog. Your 2009 taxes won’t change much, because the laws are already in place. 2010 now… but:
–GM goes bankrupt in, call it two years.
–Exxon-Mobil sells its US operations to Hugo, call it three.
–Unemployment at the end of 2009: 9.7% and rising. At the end of 2010, 12%. The media is full of happy talk about Good Times. Housing starts fall 22% from 2008 levels.
–2010 tax collections: a windfall. President Obama gives a speech about the best economy evah. OMB announces that the trend is to pay off the national debt by 2030.
–2011 tax revenues: Down 31% from 2010. The EU announces that it will no longer cooperate with the IRS in collecting taxes from American expatriates.
–2012: Obama re-elected with 97.3% of the popular vote.
Write it down somewhere. I won’t be here; I’m the wrong color.

Yes. But/and:
I’m as depressed/bitter/frustrated/pissy as anybody right now — I mean, I’m posting sad laments about my parents — but here’s something to not forget: Nearly half the electorate voted against Obama. I know that sounds like a cop-out, a rationalization, whatever. But it really is important to remember.
The left stayed busy feeling despondent about Bush and “stolen elections” until it let itself start enjoying the fact that half the country voted against the guy. That was empowering, and helped ultimately lead them to this day.
We just need to remember to remember that. Or I do, at least.

But I look back on this earlier thread, and read the vile personal remarks about me, I despair that we can ever work together to rebuild this nation. It’s sickening.

Jeff Y: don’t worry about the Mayan calendar. Those old guys just got tired of carving out the numbers. Christian, pagan, or atheist, millenialists are always wrong. It’s a form of wishful thinking, just like Teh Revolution — one fell swoop and it’s all over. Same is true of the Rapture, and all the other apocalyptic endings. God isn’t a sadist, but He isn’t going to let us off the hook that easily, either. No bangs, all whimpers, and life goes on whether we like it or not.
We are star-dust, we are golden
We are filled with the Devil’s poison
And we’ve got to get ourselves back to the Garden…
It’s the myth based on hunter-gatherer-scavenger times, you know. Food was where you found it, and the important bit was sharing so the tribe survived. We lived that way for ten or twenty millenia before somebody figured out that sticking seeds in the ground meant something to eat next year, and had the patience (and the strength) to wait. But the Old Ways are built into our DNA, and they make a siren song few can resist. The only real irony there is calling the response to that song “Progressive”.
It’ll take a while. Industrial civilization has stored up a lot of seed corn, and we won’t eat it all in a single season. Eat it we will, though, because cynn and her ilk[*] will never understand the concept of “production”. The crops are just there. Eat your fill, but make sure the kids get plenty, OK? The guy ranting about weeding and hoeing, well, he’s just a stupid annoyance. Bash him hard enough and he’ll shut up.
Somebody else will build it back. It won’t be us, and I don’t know how long it will take, but it’ll happen. There’s a science fiction author named Brian M. Stableford who pulled off what I consider the very, very best shaggy-dog pun evah to end a book. The semi-villain is explaining to the protagonist that yearning for the Garden of Eden is fruitless, that the Paradise Game can’t be won. It was a contest, he says, between Paradise and Civilization.
Paradise lost.

Ric

Ok. I almost ruined my credibility by cheerleading for the ‘good guys.’

I give it two years. Max.
Armageddon scenarios apply. …and re-read Chittum’s “Civil War II” while yer at it.
See also: “The Rise & Fall Of Civilizations” by Miller, Joubert and Butler.
…and while yer at it, toss in a economic depression scenario, too.
A McCain presidency might’ve given us some breathing room. An Obama presidency doesn’t give us any breathing room at all.
Expect Iran and Syria to have a go at Israel. The Muslim extremists and militants just got their ‘green light.’

I imagine they’ll do it again. Because the activist courts Obama loves so well can’t be arsed to actually LISTEN to the people.

It’s hard to talk honestly about rebuilding a nation when the folks on the left have been busy tearing it down for the last 8 years; all for simply the will to power…
A steady stream of lies and invective has been employed by the Democrats and their allies in the MSM to convince the public of the criminality of our governments actions.
While Bush and the congressional Republicans did sell out, and try to move to the ideological left in terms of their lack of fiscal restraint, I don’t see how repeating, “Selected, not elected”, “the war is lost!”, “Bush lied, people died!”, as well as the collosal half-truths of the entire global warming scam benefitted our nation in any way.
The ultimate hypocrisy is all of the obstructionist charges made in the current congress, the hand-wringing calls for bi-partisanship that are conveniently echoed by the MSM, and the repetition of the whole reach across the aisle/post partisan meme. Where was all this sentiment for the last 8 years?
Fortunately for Obama, the right will not countenance a similar strategy of national subterfuge and sabotage in the name of attaining power. He will get the kind of cooperation that Booooooooosh! never recieved…
He’ll be given all the rope he want’s; forgive me if I don’t shed any tears when he hangs himself with it…
Congratulations on your victory today

CA has the most socialist legislature around, but we seem to toss Republicans into the Governorship
And the Prop 8 wouldn’t have been this close (as Prop 22 years back it won almost 2 to 1) save for shennigans by State AG Jerry “Moonbeam” Brown and some very misleading or vicious campaign ads.

“When’s your boy gonna get us out or Iraq then?” with a nice emphasis on ‘boy’. I think that’s going to be the essential item in every question – I’m going to make it sound like Obama’s their own, favorite, chosen servant – because, well – aren’t politicians the servants of the people?
“So, tell me – when’s your boy gonna fix this ocean rising stuff?”
“So, when’s your boy gonna start the healing, huh?”
“So, your boy’s boy – sure fucked up in that interview, didn’t he?”
“So, your boy chose Colin Powell for Sec Def. Does he still think Saddam had WMDs?”

One thing to take pleasure in tonight: There was one outcome that was never in doubt.
While the media got its favorite son into the White House, it’s a dying breed. Revenues and readership for all the major newspapers are falling and fast. Ratings and revenues for the major media channels are falling and fast. One thing we must absolutely not allow is a bailout of the mainstream media. They’re not our friends, and we shouldn’t pretend that they are. If we wake up 3 years from now and hear the Times is declaring bankruptcy and is on the verge on liquidation, we must insist the government let them die. No bailouts for the media.

We’re in a recession and we’ve got a projected deficit of over 500 billion for next year. Your Messiah just promised a whole host of tax cuts, “free” health care, “free” college education and all sorts of nice tasty government cheese he can’t possibly deliver on without bankrupting the nation.
If you blame Bush, no one will take you seriously. I actually look forward to this. No more compassionate conservative nonsense, or Bush albatross hanging around my neck.

Nice to hear. Doesn’t really gibe with your earlier comments about “pigs” and how it’s your turn to loot. It’s especially out of sync with the rest of your party — while the last eight years have seen especially foul behavior from the left, I can’t think of a time in my life when the left hasn’t been calling anyone who disagrees with them “fascists”.
Weird. When a conservative says the same thing, it’s labeled “hate” and “racism”.
Again, talk to the folks on your side. They’ve spent eight years wishing for the President to be killed, and wishing not much better for the rest of us.
So, cynn, when Obama’s administration kicks off its IRS audits of critics, will you be lecturing them that it’s wrong? Or will you be back to kicking your feet in glee and chortling that it’s “our turn”?

politicalhuman spectrum that houses envy, greed, theft, and the great lie that powers them all.The left. Proud it hasn’t a clue how freedom works and even prouder to refuse every one you send their way. Simply because they, being high minded, entertain and embody the basest of barely acceptable human society by making what amounts to crime acceptable policy.
Truncheons at the polls, indeed. To keep the high ideals in, no doubt.
So now we, finally, have the most corrupt government in the nation’s history waiting in the wings: A two-house majority composed of record-level failure Socialist-Democrat public servants managed by a single grotesquely under-vetted and inexperienced president who can only be defined as quasi-Marxist. Make no mistake; this is soon to be about controlling the means of commerce and production and then unnaturally redistributing them.
So, what is that to the left? It’s thor’s sea to shining sea patriotism. Or is that actually spitting on the free market, on the self-sufficient and law abiding, and stealing whatever you can have your team have declared as yours? Let’s try and not miss the actual definitions of what we’re facing, shall we?
And this fact produces even more ugliness and gloating.
A finer proof of the amorality and rudderlessness of the collective, dishonest end of the scale of humanity you could not ask for. Here we finally go with the Castroization of the American constitutional republic. He started by reforming evil moneymakers too, and ended managing a desperate raft of ‘55 Chevy-driving refugees.
If they can’t be bridled just by the vestiges of the American system of divided-powers government, the American left will do it too, never once admitting what an inevitable failure it’ll surely be. History repeats itself. Only the precise flavor of it changes.

So Obama won and may now begin his program to loot America’a most productive citizens for purposes of payoffs to all those parasites/voters he bought with promises to take from those who’ve earned and transfer to those who have not.
This pretentious mediocrity, this grinning, empty-headed clown will now proceed to push an economic package that will inject more of the economic poison — socialism — that already sickens us.
The good news is that he won’t be able to blame the disastrous effects on Bush. Oh, to be sure, he’ll try to; the depression that will result if Obama gets his way will be called the “Bush depression” — and the media will push it that way — but that will only work for a little while.
This is the greatest act of national stupidity since the Germans decided to hand total control to Hitler. Unfortunately, we are now going to get exactly what we deserve. The liberal looting of America will now accelerate — God help our most productive people.

At 10:40, President Bush will keep his streak alive by telling everyone how much he loves America. Just as he always has.
And he’ll show everyone how much he loves America by preparing Obama as best he can for the next 4 years. He’ll do everything in his power to impart to President-elect Obama the seriousness of national security. He’ll do it with dignity and class as he has always done – to the absolute disgust of his political enemies. But now those enemies must stand with George W. Bush in loving America, when just yesterday they hated her with a passion.
And a dumb hick Republican will lead them.

I see Hamas launched 35 missles at Israel today.
Just “fire works” for Obama’s victory, I’m sure.
For it’s part, the IDF then celebrated Obama’s victory in kind, sending 30 Hamas pricks to meet their gaggle of veiled, hairy virgins.
Watch out Mohammed…I think that “virgin” in the middle is a dude.

I still say that the Democrats are Socialist-Communists in all but name and that the Republicans are National Socialists in all but name. Parse and Fisk their respective platforms and you’ll see what I mean.
That said, in the short-term, we’d a been better off with McCain. There woulda been a better chance at a long, slow, slide to the bottom than a gut-wrenching crash. As it is now, Iran and the militant Muslims have a green light. Whether anyone in America wants to believe it or not, THEY think that Obama’s a Muslim. The first chance he gets, Putin’s gonna have Obama flambé…and the Chinese will turn him every which way but loose. Chicago politics gots nuthin’ on the Chinese…
Dow is currently at the top of something resembling a classic head and shoulders pattern. Once Obama’s cabinet is made public, especially his Fed Reserve pick, the market WILL react.

All is not lost. McCain was NOT our candidate. He was simply NotObama. He prolly would done more harm to the Republican party – and he wouldn’t have had any support. I’ve decided to be optimistic.
Obama ran as a moderate, and (as Jonah said in his piece today) either he does that and things are “OK” or he swings left. If he swings wildly left, who benefits? I mean, besides the leeches of society who are gonna get their mortgages paid and gas tanks filled?
We do. The media and everyone has been denying that he’s so far left. Personally, I know many voters who backed him simply because the Republicans had been fiscally irresponsible Thor used to make that claim, right, but I believe his derangement as progressed. What happens when the deficit (if) balloons?
Of course, the media can play that game again. Deficit? What deficit? Nothing to see here … and, of course, the homeless will disappear.

It worked for the Dems.
Yes, there’s much temptation to leap right into the payback mode. But, remember, the leftist Dems are the real haters, expert, and I’m not like that. I don’t want so much to follow their hate-on-sight lead that way, automatically, without giving BHO at least a few months to settle in.
After all, George Bush got 10 or 11 months before the most rabid of the leftist dogs began unleashing their vomitii.
Ah, but I’m proud of Tennessee. We’re still a red state, where Republicans picked up seats and solidified the State Senate. Between Tennessee and Texas, we can rebuild a conservative sort of party. And the others…Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Idaho, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Utah, West Virginia and Wyoming. And 4/5 of Nebraska.
Good for us!
We know who wants the socialism: the overpopulated cities and surrounding counties. Not so much the hard-working values-driven rural areas.

I expect that the number of urban murders will rise – and that the media will ignore this fact until the 2012 campaign starts in 2010. And then, they’ll try to graft their “only-gun’s-kill-people” narrative onto the statistics.
Funny thing this: when people kill each other in Democratic cities, it’s because of uncontrolled guns. But when Islamo’s kill Westerners in Berlin, it’s because “they hate us.”

I just can’t wrap my head around the fact that his supporters excused him sitting in a racist church for 20 years.

“Goebbels” is alive now in a collective, defunct, junk bond liberal media cabal which, under Obama, will cash in it’s chips to get it’s own $700 billion bail out; complete with the Faustian pact of continuing to fowl barrels of ink praising The One.
Under Obama, “Hess’s” ghost is now free from only puppeting Reid, Pelosi, Frank, Dodd & Schumer. It will now possess all of congress like a goddamn poltergeist.

we were tethered to the Bush presidency and all but the biggest fanboys should have known it.
It all worked fine in 2004; when Katrina, the expanding debacle in Iraq, and the economy collapsed, we were toast. He is a good man–I know his extended family well–but he made a series of fatal blunders and wiped out the GOP.
Obama won fair and square and I wish him and his administration well. I am a proud American and though I loyally oppose him on everything (literally, I disagree with every single word he says), he is my president and I hope he steers true.
as for us, perhaps we can play a small role in pushing what few kindred souls are left in elected life into becoming principled conservatives…again.

Also I am very happy at a lot of the Rs who went bye bye. And not having to carry water for McCain is a beautiful thing, almost frolicsomely liberating really. And now I’m not conflicted about buying a new foreign car no mores instead of getting one what greasy union workers spooged all over. I’ll be the first one ever in my family on both sides. I’d been really torn. That’s all I know right now.

Mcg; your thoughts pretty much echo my feelings this morning.
I choose not to project disaster and a bunker mentality at this time. I confess to not having a surfeit of confidence in the President elect but he is duly elected and that makes him my president. I wish him the best and hope and pray that his run to the center has some kind of staying power.
That having been said I choose to to pin my darkest rages to The Republican Party, a party that wrestled Congress into a fiscal conservative promising majority in 1994 and spent 14 years pissing it away to the point of trillion dollar bailouts and 13 trillion dollars in debt. Compassionate conservatism has become a tablet phrase for the eulogy of fiscal conservatism, limited government and, as a result, individual liberty. I’m sure we’ll all have plenty of time to howl and snarl about Obama administration decisions over the next 4 years. Right now I’m dealing with the hangover from hell bile that I feel for those who proclaimed their allegiance to my political principles but stabbed me in the back again and again and again while providing “leadership” without a whit of political courage outside of the GWOT and early tax cuts.
While I may, finally, register as a Republican sometime down the road, ending 35 years of independent status to possibly have something to say in future Senate and House races, the thought of doing sot anytime soon is enough to cause me to wish to be inflicted with leprosy.
Which, by the way, is exactly how I feel as a fiscal conservative; a leper.
Addendum: Norm Coleman in Minn. is clinging to a 571 vote lead over AL FREAKIN’ FRANKEN! Siphoning off significant votes is independent Barkley, who runs on a very conservative fiscal platform. Irony, thy name is Republican.

Amen brother -yay for TN, my new adopted home.
More of these States need to do what Oklahoma did.
http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=67229
Joint House Resolution 1089, passed by an overwhelming 92-3 margin, reasserts Oklahoma’s sovereignty under the Tenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, and, according to the resolution’s own language, is “serving notice to the federal government to cease and desist certain mandates.”
We are not going to defeat the Marxicrats in Washington any time soon, at best it will be a holding action forcing them to commit direct support for their plans and tagging them with whatever flows forth from their failed policies in the future. History has shown that they surely will fail.
So instead let’s focus on winning closer to home for the time being. Big government will always be a top down affair and Americans, when operating on a local scale, no matter what they may think they support on a national scale, still have great resentment for being told what to do from above. We can build on that resentment as more and more power is usurped by the Feds.

I love the Salvation Army still but you can’t give on their website cause they will give the monies to your local one automatically and mine is probably a dirty socialist one and I’d rather give to Texas ones so they know I still care. But yeah a lot of people don’t understand that part of your cable bill is like writing a check to Keith Olbermann. To me that’s called being part of the problem. Starbucks is gay cause the NYT banks on them a lot to maintain a national footprint.

Congratulations Lisa,
I earnestly hope that, as a Democrat, you are enjoying this moment. Mr. Obama is our President-elect, and all of us in the opposition hope that he serves our nation well…
But, I also hope that you all realize that it is sooooooooooo on…
While I don’t believe that it will even be a fraction as ugly as the deranged left have been for the last 8 years, I certainly won’t be days of wine and roses or sweetness and light either…
But suffice it to say that we will fight for principles and argue based on ideas, instead of the vapid sloganeering, such as “Boooooooosh lied, people died!”, sophmoric name calling like”Chimpy BusHitlerBurton”, and vile invective; these “smack” tactics have been the stock in trade of the left for years now. And, they have succeeded in appealing to the large segment of our society for which politesse, and respectfulness have ceased to be virtue…
Congratulations again,
Enjoy it while it lasts,
Best Wishes…

Colorado now has two liberal senators (Salazar and now Udall), I can’t wrap my head around this one. I can logically see the reasons and forces that led to a Obama victory over McCain. I can’t understand the victories of Udall or even Marky over Musgrave. Having two very liberal Democrats representing Colorado in the senate isn’t a good representation of the Colorado population.
Didn’t all the people that moved here do so because of how Colorado was different from where they came from? Do Californians and Michigonians really want to replicate their states here? I don’t recognize Colorado any more and it’s wierd.

Where do you get notions like this? And why are you so hung up on taxes and what’s “yours?” For the record, I would certainly object to anyone being financially targeted for political reasons, and that includes this whole “The Prince is gonna take our $$ and give it to lazy scum!!!” crap. I’ll admit I haven’t scrutinized Obama’s economic policies, but from what I’ve seen they seem rather fuzzy and frankly unworkable.
We’ll see; I think all these looming manufactured crises that Biden promised will probably distract his administration. So maybe he won’t get around to looting your bank account in his first term. Cheer up!

Ignorance, sloth, and loss of respect for integrity and honesty in pursuit of goals…is the cause of all this. The American character is in some respects a ruin of what it once was.
I was looking for a Patrick Henry quote on the necessity of public and private virtue to maintain a republic, and stumbled on this page.
I think I found the o-ring open secret that nobody mentions right before things blow up.
“It is better to cherish virtue and humanity, by leaving much to free will, even with some loss of the object , than to attempt to make men mere machines and instruments of political benevolence. The world on the whole will gain by a liberty, without which virtue cannot exist.”
Edmund Burke
“Liberty can no more exist without virtue and independence than the body can live and move without a soul.”

Me, I’m not happy. And I’ll fucking say it. If PJM wants to build its audience by creating yet another round of GOP voters who think they have to be “compassionate” and more understanding of progressive sensibilities — as if this will somehow magically create a reconciliation — then they’ve lost their fucking minds.
Now is not the time for calculated, make-believe, forced “diversity of thought.” Now is the time for an honest evaluation of the principles on which this country was founded, and a thorough and consistent rebuke offered to those arguments that suggest we try anything different.
No, I don’t have to “respect your opinion” anymore than I have to find you attractive, intelligent, or a worthwhile drinking buddy.

I will admit to no such thing. I wasn’t out making paper mache puppets of Bush as the devil. I didn’t write fantasy plays about killing the president.
Well neither did I. But that doesn’t mean I didn’t pass around the chimp jokes and Jesusland maps.
You don’t have to be Michael Moore or Ann Coulter to qualify as being ungracious. Believe me, I have no place to complain about bitterness. I have been a pure ass for the last 8 years. But I also recognize that I did not invent soreloser syndrome.

1. PJMTV is a business, for-profit and wants to and needs to attract a wide-range of viewers. Thats that. I think the ass-reaming delivered last night would indicate that ours is now a minority view.
2.Catalano at one point was a really, really solid Bush supporter. There are a lot of those–perhaps “were” is the better word–who voted for McCain. The reason she shifted, and other shifted their allegiance in the millions, is that Bush sucked as a POTUS. Think we should get her back? I do. We need lots more of her but we won’t get them back until A) we stop running shitty candidates with stupid ideas, B) we find some more Reagan-Goldwater sorts who have classic conservative principles but do not alienate a large percentage of the populace.
I wish it hadn’t happened, but it did. We need to help root out the rot at the core of the GOP and build from there.
until then, we should be a Dole-Goldwater-Buckley loyal opposition, rife with ideas and as much integrity as is possible.

Lisa, I work for the largest media org in the world. I am being gracious as hell. It hurts, but its a growth opportunity. My colleagues? less so, but that’s ok. Its not personal.
being an “out” conservative here is like being the black kid on the BYU basketball team.

Lisa still whacks at the strawmen and wrote:
“If someone choses to be kind of gracious to the winner, they are Teh Suck?”
If someone chooses to be kind to the faction that hates that someone’s guts and tries to play nice when said faction is not at all interested in returning the favor, then it is a Bit Daft of that someone to do so.
Comment by Mr. Pink on 11/5 @ 11:25 am #
Chimp jokes and Jesus land maps? How uniting of you. I think this is why people are pissed off at what you called the “conciliatory” tone of some right wing bloggers. How the f@ck am I supposed to get along with someone that spent 8 years calling me a racist or fascist at every opportunity? How the hell do you get along with someone who has demonized the WOT for political gain? Really I can not see how and when I hear someone try it makes me want to throw up in my mouth. It is like taking an asswhooping and then letting the guy who just did it borrow money from you so he can take your girl out to the prom.

Same thing as at my place of employement (very liberal) and where I live (South Baltimore – the really hipster hippie-dippie part). We are very nice to our token Republicans, but we often stare at them in wonder (much like the Mormons do with black folk in Utah – my family on my mom’s side represents the .0008 percent of black Americans living in Utah).

1. The ass reaming delivered to McCain, you mean.
2. Bullshit. Either you believe in certain principles or you do not. Obama represents none of those principles. I’ll spend my life in the wilderness defending my beliefs before I play pragmatist and try to win elections with empty promises.
The answer is to make your beliefs clear. Defend them. Refuse to cede ground out of weariness and convenience.
Rooting out the rot at the core of the GOP begins by rooting out the “moderate,” “measured” folk telling us we shouldn’t worry that the last 40 years has driven us to the point where we can now elect a practically unvetted socialist, with the media’s help, and respond by pretending he’s a “good man” and believing ourselves noble for doing so.
That is a surrender of principles for expedience. Not interested.

Unluckily, I have a feeling we will be feeling the hangover of the
drunken stupidity of the majority of this country that has fallen in love with
the idiotic, hypothetical, Utopian principals and ideas of
communism/socialism. Either that or they are just stupid, but in that case, they were duped by a complicit media that at one time thought it their duty to inform the
uninformed (ie the morons who voted this Manchurian candidate into
office) of what they were uninformed of, for the greater good of society. Now
the media, drunk on power, feel it is their duty to be champions of “the
little man” and by way of duping him into voting their man into office, they
hope they will keep, no in fact, gain more power, all in the name of being
kingmakers and knowing what is best for “the little man”. That is what
elites do. Well, soon enough these same people will be tasting their own
medicine, and for a little while it might taste fine, but there will
come a reckoning, in which they might see their folly, I fear by then our
headaches will be too strong to care to give them assistance, or our
malice for what they did to our great country to great to ignore.

Agreed, Perf. I think now is a good time to get back to basics. I think the message of small government, non-nation building and all that crazy U.N.-ish shit, and low taxes has been so muddled as to be laughable in the GOP. We have been throwing that shit in your faces for 8 years. You have to stand for something or fall for anything.
We had this massive fight about Democrats trying to pretend to be Republicans to win. If you are running as a faux-conservative, why shouldn’t I just vote for the real thing and be done with it? That is why we KEPT LOSING. No one was buying that shit. One has to just be the liberal or conservative they really are and hope the American people agree with them at some point. The pendulum always swings.

Well, she was a really sold “war against terror” supporter for a while. She became anti-war somewhere along the way.
A- Whose idea was McCain anyway? Not mine. Not (pretty much) anyone else who reads this blog. McCain was BBF of the media up until the day he became the candidate. Personally, I believe the Media did what it could to make McCain the candidate, all the while they had their lines of attack ready to go.
B. What we need are actual conservatives who aren’t moderate, and don’t try to appeal to the middle. Compassionate and moderate conservatives will not win.

Thanks again to all who contributed. I took down the post because Andrew Northrup’s poorman site linked it with more “Failed academic Jeff Goldstein hausfrau nutter” bullshit, and I’ve decided moving forward that I’ll only converse with those on the political left interested in talking on topic and about issues. The rest I will ignore and/or delete.
And many of them had better hope I never run into them personally.
Comment by mcgruder on 11/5 @ 11:54 am #
Jeff,
the ass-reaming delivered to what is broadly known as the GOP. McCain was just its showpiece.
i agree that we should do as you say and not compromise. We should also develop a few chops, as it were…become stringently anti-spending as it were again, come up with a commitment to beat back the Education establishment (educators who refuse to educate), that sort of thing.
I was talking about PJMTV and its need to attract an audience, BTW.
I find myself thinking back to Guiliani when he took over NYC in 93, IIRC. The place was a post-modern liberal sewer. he went to war against crime, the welfare state, the bureaucracy et al… he faced a level of institutional venom that was unprecedented from the media and a series of other amen corners.
he won in the end though. he picked fights that could be won in 1-3 yrs as long as tenacity was applied.
Bush launched a similarly audacious plan…and did not win. Afghanistan is in open flux adn Iraq…whatever it is, the majority of the US populace do not feel comfortable with a war going into its second decade.

I don’t disagree. But the GOP and conservative/classical liberal aren’t synonymous, and McCain was more representative of the former than the latter, his “Maverick” tag notwithstanding.

Actually, mcgruder, you’re part of the problem. Your willingness to believe the lies about Iraq is the same mindset that makes people call a 20-year veteran of a racist “church” a “good man”.
Comment by Lisa on 11/5 @ 12:18 pm #
He is a good man. You can’t judge someone by their (sometimes) pastor. Sarah Palin’s church had some anti-semite crank preaching at it. Does that make her a slavering Nazi? No.
Being a non-religious person, I am never surprised at the cranks that sometimes populate “churches”. It is what it is, right?

Yeah I asked an O! supporter last night how they could excuse the Rev. Wright crap. He said that O! could not be responsible for what his preacher said. I then asked him if he would be cool I told him I had been going to a white power church for 20 years and then appointed the preacher of the church to my campaign staff when I ran for office. He then said no he would not be cool with that. Then he gets this blank look on his face and starts mouthing off about the need for change.

Hear hear. Progressives control the house, senate, lower courts, executive branch, media, schools, entertainment, organized labor, and government bureaucracies. People say that Wall Street is conservative. This isn’t true. Wall Street is beholden to whomever has the power to fuck with Wall Street. The progs now own Wall Street.
There are no checks and balances. Progressives own the country. When the city burns, the emperor is the guilty party. They’ll get no help from me, nor will I compliment them on how well they fiddle.
At 9:50 this morning, a student on a campus somewhere in America realized that his New Historicism professor, a professedly hip fifty-something dude with a rad ponytail and righteous stories about protests and rebellion, is the man. Not just a servant of the man, but an incarnation of the man. And that man now has nuclear launch codes. That’s an awfully big stick with which to curb criticism.

Why do you hate the Chinese, dataless?
You’re completely immune to reason, dataless: The US turned to a service economy because it’s currency was strong enough to allow it to do so. It’s called free markets. Likewise, the Chinese are in the position of saving and producing. The result was inevitable. And allowed.
And beneficial, especially to the Chinese you want to keep oppressed under communism when they have every chance to individually make it big under simple capitalism, thereby making the Chinese government an ally in commerce with the US.
So now, as the result of the inevitable partial collapse of the fiat US dollar held by US banks, whatever partisan fever dream you have conjured up is Booosh’s fault. You can’t even articulate it. Which means you have zero clue how nationalizing the banks and destroying free markets will only worsen it.
There’s one way out and one way out only: Restore free markets. Curb the Fed. Probably you didn’t know that the Fed is a private corporation. Or that Paulson is a Democrat. And was a Democrat when he literally took a knee to Pelosi and, along with the Democrat hyper-socialists, begged the bailout bill they wrote into existence. After jamming a half trillion dollars of free ACORN money into it.
The markets are now, as of this writing, off more than ever in the history of post-election drops. Have a ball with that.
