UPDATE: 6:40: Early exit polls report that 2012 electorate is ’slightly’ more Republican than in 2008. That’s crucial, because most 2012 polling is built on the assumption that 2012 turnout will be similar to 2008 turnout.
UPDATE: 7:40 Obama up in early Ohio exit polls.
Winning by 11 among women, down 6 among men. Net up three. If that holds, that’s crucial.
UPDATE: 8:07: Early exit polling from Pennsylvania: Obama up five. That is the sound of a door slamming shut. Romney needs some good news, and so far he isn’t getting any.
UPDATE: 9:28″ Romney needs to prove that the polls are wrong, and so far they just aren’t. For example, Fox just gave Wisconsin — Paul Ryan’s home state — to Obama. Another door slams shut.
UPDATE: 9:52: New Hampshire called. Pennsylvania called. Both for Obama. Romney is running out of routes to the White House.
In the Senate, Elizabeth Warren beats Scott Brown; Richard Mourdock loses in Indiana. Tammy Baldwin wins in Wisconsin, becoming our first openly gay U.S. senator.
UPDATE: 10:05: Republicans were insistent that the polls were oversampling Democrats, that there was no way so many Americans were Democratic.
So far, it looks as though they were wrong.
UPDATE: 10:48: This bodes poorly long-term for the GOP:
Exit poll finds that 74 percent of Republicans believe illegal immigrants should be deported.
Overall, just 29 percent of Americans share that opinion. So how do you convince that 74 percent that the party has to alter its viewpoint to succeed?

Despite efforts to stabilize Fulton County’s elections system in time for Tuesday’s vote, the Georgia Secretary of State’s office is “extremely concerned” at reports of problems at the polls in the county Tuesday morning, according to a spokesman for the office, Jared Thomas.
The issues are not isolated to one location but are scattered throughout Fulton at a level unseen in any other county, Thomas said. The office has fielded four investigators who are “very busy,” he added.

It really was much easier when Democrats ran Georgia and they just banned black people from voting via literacy tests, ones that I doubt half or more of the Dems couldn’t pass. Made for shorter lines at the polls for ignorant people that ran the state for 100+ years.

Romney’s Bain Capital invested in companies that moved jobs overseas
http://www.washingtonpost.com/business/economy/romneys-bain-capital-invested-in-companies-that-moved-jobs-overseas/2012/06/21/gJQAsD9ptV_story.html
The Washington Post recently reported that some of the companies Mitt Romney’s firm Bain Capital invested in were “pioneers in the practice of shipping work from the United States to overseas call centers and factories.” Even more troubling than his business record is his platform as
Republican presidential candidate, which includes a policy that would encourage and further accelerate the outsourcing of American jobs to foreign countries.

Romney’s strength: Outsourcing American jobs
In strategic sourcing circles they refer to it as “offshoring” and Bain Capital invested in companies that specialized in it when Mitt Romney was its leader between 1983 and 1999, according to Tom Hamburger in Thursday’s Washington Post.
Bain didn’t simply indirectly help shift a few jobs overseas – it invested in companies whose sole reason for being was to reduce costs for its clients by shipping entire business operations abroad to countries like China, India, Mexico and South Korea.
During the 15 years Romney actively ran Bain, it owned companies that were “pioneers in the practice of shipping work from the United States to overseas call centers and factories making computer components.”

Romney Invested In Company That Is Outsourcing Jobs, Forcing Workers To Train Their Chinese Replacements
By Travis Waldron on Aug 24, 2012 at 4:07 pm
Workers at Sensata Technologies, a business based in Freeport, Illinois, have been protesting Mitt Romney’s campaign stops across the country all summer because the company, which is owned by Bain Capital, is laying off workers in order to hire employees in China. Bain took control of Sensata in 2006; last year, it took over the Freeport plant and announced that it would layoff 165 workers and close it.
Some of the workers, according to Sensata employees, have been forced to train their Chinese replacements, adding insult to the injury that was their looming job loss.

Given the provisional ballot situation in Ohio, we could be a week and a half or more away from knowing who our next president will be.
“Ohio shaping up as ground zero for Election Day disputes”
“But it is in Ohio, where the polls in the race between President Barack Obama and Mitt Romney remain tight, where a key dispute is brewing. It centers on an emergency motion from a labor union and homeless advocacy group asking a federal court to clarify whether Ohio voters who cast provisional ballots – or the workers who process them – are responsible for incomplete or missing identification information on those ballots.
The ruling, from U.S. District Court Judge Algenon Marbley, will not come in time for Election Day. But he is expected to decide the case by Nov. 17, when Ohio counts provisional ballots.
The case is the result of Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted’s order last week that county elections officials should not accept provisional ballots if they include incomplete information on the type of identification the voter used to obtain the ballot.”

Republicans Want A CEO President That Outsourced Jobs
By: Ray MedeirosJune 24th, 2011
We need a President with a business background, someone to get the economy growing and stronger. That has been the talking point of the GOP for many months. The two most prominent GOP candidates with a strong business background are Mitt Romney and John Huntsman but unfortunately both of these gentlemen have been either creating jobs overseas or buying crumbling companies, splitting them off and outsourcing American jobs.
Let’s first take a look at Mitt Romney. As an executive, Romney would buy struggling companies, break them up and ship parts to foreign low wage countries. Now many people on the right will try to defend this as doing what he was paid to do, which was to take companies and turn them around to be profitable. The problem is, he could have turned them around, made a healthy profit, restructured them and finally kept the jobs here in America. Romney didn’t do that. He decided to make an even bigger profit by destroying communities through outsourcing. He didn’t stand with the workers of factories or other businesses at all. He decided to stand with the shareholders ONLY and I am sure some of the shareholders weren’t even American.

We will take it in the teeth of President Obama is not re-elected. No access to high risk pool health care, no reproductive rights, extreme limits on itemized deductions, include medical expenses under the Romney-Ryan plan. The 17K limit Romney put out there, as part of his plan, will be eaten up almost immediately with after tax cost of health insurance for two at 15K a year. YES, $15K before the huge deductibles are even taken into consideration. Here is one middle class person who is going to take in the teeth, to broaden the tax base, and lower taxes for the well to do. And, all this misery is just make sure the net result of Romney’s plan is tax neutral (meaning not a penny goes to lower the national debt). Dream on, the middle class, we are about to get screwed to the floor boards.

Early exit polls report that 2012 electorate is ’slightly’ more Republican than in 2008. That’s crucial, because most 2012 polling is built on the assumption that 2012 turnout will be similar to 2008 turnout.

I was curious about the Republican experience today as far as communication from the Romney campaign. I’m a Obama supporter and contributer and I have received at least 4 or 5 reminders an hour by email, text, and tweet to go vote, and contact friends to go vote, send Facebook messages to friends to vote. I am a FL voter, so that may have something to do with it, although what I hear from friends is that they’re getting the full court press across the country from the Obama organization.
If there are any Republicans that can comment civilly, are you getting the same intensity of messaging from the Romney organization?

If you care about politics and spend a fair amount of time online, odds are good that sometime between 5 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Eastern time on Tuesday, you will encounter someone sharing leaked “exit poll” numbers that purport to tell you who will win various battleground states.
It may be tempting to assume the numbers will tell you who is going to win the presidential election.
They probably won’t.
Hard as it may be, you should try to ignore them, at least until the polls close. And even then, take the underlying vote estimates with big grains of salt.

Besides, McCain was a true American hero and I guy I respect enormously. (Andy doesn’t much care for combat heroes. He has called McCain and Hagle RINOs and has ZERO good to say about them, their service to the nation or their not insignificant sacrifice.)
Willard on the other hand is IMUO a candyass, money-hiding, shape shifter and is utterly unworthy of this veteran’s respect. I have no doubts that OBL would still be alive had he been in the White House the past four years.

Georgia demonstrates Larry’s findings. Georgia voters are on average far less educated than other states, one reason SAT scores are so low. Would be fun to run IQ tests on the state. Obama voters will average about 115; Romney voters something below 85. Unfortunately the 85’s far outnumber the 115’s. Maybe we should pass Amendment 1; at least we could guarantee we’ll stay #1 in something: lowest SAT scores.

Very bad news for Romeny:
From CNN:
Our exit poll info about the economy:
More voters in the swing states of Florida, New Hampshire, Ohio and Virginia blame George W. Bush than Barack Obama for the state of the U.S. economy.
According to early exit polls in Florida, 53% of today’s voters say Bush is more to blame for the country’s current economic problems while 41% say Obama.
In New Hampshire, exit polls show 54% blame Bush while 41% blame Obama.
There’s less of a gap in Ohio and Virginia. In both states, 50% of today’s voters say Bush is more to blame for the country’s current economic problems. In Ohio, 41% say Obama is more to blame and in Virginia 45% say Obama.

A lot of people struggle to make ends meet and it helps them to blame someone else for their problems and to think that someone else is getting unfair advantages.

Pauline you’re right on when you say the Democratic party was first called the Republican party. It was also called the Republican-Democrat party, it was the party of James Madison and Thomas Jefferson. They were states rights advocates. The opposition was, of course, the Federalist party led by Alexander Hamilton. They were intent on giving the Federal government power. Interestingly Hamilton and Madison, who worked closely together on the Federalist Papers, wound up truly hating each other. Of course most everybody hated Hamilton, and nobody more so than John Adams.
George Washington was also a Federalist. How popular was he? In the final year of his second term he still had an approval rating of over 90%. That will never be rivaled. And his first Cabinet he had Henry Knox as Secretary of War (defense), Jefferson as Secretary of State and Hamilton as Secretary of the Treasury. No Cabinet has ever come close to that one nor will it.

Voters devastated by superstorm Sandy — many of whom were left homeless and broke — doggedly made their way to makeshift polls even as they tried to rebuild their lives, with one saying her right to cast a ballot “is the only thing I have left.”
On New York’s Staten Island, FEMA workers were going door-to-door, still expecting to find bodies, shovel-bearing U.S. Marines stood by ready to help and weary-eyed residents, many wearing surgical masks, stood outside their wrecked homes.
“Yes, I voted,” Mona Schriver, 68, a nurse at Staten Island University Hospital, told FoxNews.com. “I voted because it’s the only thing I have left. Everything else is gone.”

It looks as though Obama will be narrowly re-elected.
A few points:
1) There is a good chance he will lose the popular vote but win the electoral vote. Our founding fathers wisely set it up that way. Pure democracy is not good ……… that’s why we have a House of Representatives “and” a Senate with two Senators for Rhode Island and two for California.
2) I also believe historians 100 years from now will mark this date as the point our Republic reached the “point of no return” in its demise. “Alea iacta est”
3) In the meantime, the stalemate, devisiveness and political conflict will surely continue.

Jay: What stories have you heard about folks in Georgia not being able to vote? I Dekalb, MANTY were stricken from the rolls , not added to the Express polls, and flagged with an “X” status.
Those with an X status were naturalized citizens who unbeknownst to them had their citizenship challenged by *someone.* They were not told in advance. They just showed up at the polls and were told they couldn’t vote until they “proved” their citizenship. It was a pretty crappy deal.
Others could go online and see they were registered and even where to vote, but when they get to the poll, they don’t show up in the Express Poll machine. We had to call to get authorization for them to vote. Average wait time for each call was 30 minutes. It was a total mess. In ten years I have seen nothing like it.
You should sniff around and see if there is a story there…….

I disagree with the apparent outcome, but congratulate Democrats on their victory. Regardless, I was among many who incorrectly thought that the polls expecting a D+5 or 6 turnout was oversampling. I’ll offer an apology to Nate Silver as well because his projections are looking closer than I expected.
I’ll definitely provide more thoughts later, but for now, the evening looks to belong to Democrats by the slimmest of margins.
Regardless of what I may think – a win is a win.

You know something Jm. What you say to me might actually mean something if you held the same standard for the clowns who come out here and do as I stated. You are a hypocrite. But this is why blogs suck, because people get their panties in a wad and then the moderator has to get involved when really the moderator is in a way complicit because they allow certain individuals to come onto their blogs every day and spew the same garbage and insult people. They selectively moderate. I have to suddenly be “classy” when typically that’s what I do, in dealing with the substance of things typically even up against morons who cannot see past a political party.
But hey… the election is over. It is what it is. Barack Obama is President of the United States once again. You can’t change history, demographics, the WILL OF THE PEOPLE AND DESIRE TO MOVE THE COUNTRY FORWARD FROM ITS MANY BACKWARD WAYS. Deal with it! The world will go on without you.

My guess is they will move harder and further to the right. And as far as I am concerned I hope they do. It will just make them smaller and smaller until they are as insignificant as their extremist positions reflect the real USA.

If you think he was a socialist during his first term, you’ve not seen nothing yet.
I am too old and poor to leave the country so I will just have to send what assets I have overseas.
(already been working on it).
It may not mean much but what little I can do to subvert the system I will do. I plan on statistically removing myself from the imperial government data bases. I did not participate in the census of 2010 as a first step.
P.s. for those of you in my situation without any hope of getting adequate health care I have relatives working on a plan to provide a network of quality hospital and care facilities overseas (India and the Philippines look good as they already offer quality US trained Drs at reasonable prices. They just need to be networked).

Republicans believed in a Romney victory like many people believe in God. They put their trust in certain people so they believed what those certain people said, despite no evidence and sometimes even evidence to the contrary.
BTW, I don’t disbelieve or believe in god, but I do *feel* God.
When it comes to stuff happening in the realm of reality, however, I don’t go on faith, I go on evidence. That’s where many Republicans went wrong this time, though. They didn’t believe the polls or the employment data or global warming, etc. They think disbelieving it will make it not so. Maybe this will be their wake up call.

I have thought that this election would be pivotal in the direction that our nation and our world would move in the 21st century because the choice of President Obama by the American people means that we are as a race, a human race, evolving toward greater consciousness of inclusion and egalitarianism in how we perceive one another.
No one lost this election because we are all moving in the direction that Providence would have us move, imo. We are simply arriving sooner than later toward a kinder, more humanitarian world. There can be no losers when that has happened, and no one should proclaim victory over any other human being for to do that would not be in keeping with the beauty and the grace of this undertaking and its conclusion. The collective voice of the American people has spoken and the now the America that I so love and have always believed in will be able better to lead the world, a grateful world, to its higher destination.

GOP talking about “modern” conservatism (= conning Hispanics) to win future elections.
Republicans seem unwilling and/or unable to grasp that their policies that are aimed at helping the wealthiest among us to the detriment of the majority among us and that buying the votes of the zealots by abandoning individual liberty and equal right under law in favor of tyranny of religious zealots of the evangelical flavor are WRONG for America.

“No one lost this election because we are all moving in the direction that Providence would have us move, imo”
If no one lost, then what’s there really to celebrate? I would hope there are some 1%ers who are feeling the sting of loss tonight.
“We are simply arriving sooner than later toward a kinder, more humanitarian world.”
With the Middle East in flames, neo-fascism on the march in southern Europe, and no small amount of misery in our own country, I don’t see much evidence of the evolution you speak of. And anyway I certainly don’t see how Barack Obama’s re-election has much to do with getting us there.

The party is on the road to irrelevance unless there is a major change, unless they get out of the religion business (opposition to science, abortion, gay marriage, Planned Parenthood) and get back to being the party of fiscal conservatism, small government and social moderation.

Remember, Obama does not have a lot of allies on the right, especially after his scorched earth campaign. This country is in deep, deep doo-doo right now, and he has pissed off a lot of folks on the right. Obama and the dems are not the folks who will suffer, we the people will suffer.

Now it’s time for us all to come together and celebrate our democratic process of selecting our leader and try to fix the problems we have in this country. I’ve read every entry on this blog tonight and it pains my heart to read some of the salvos rendered on here. We’re all Americans, folks. Let’s(PLEASE) try to work this out for the sake of ALL Americans and make this nation as great as it can be. God Bless.

I believe tonight was our final wake-up call, but we as a country failed to answer that call. Instead, we have 50% of this country celebrating, and 50% upset. Our differences are polar opposites, unable to reach a middle ground. Mitt Romney did not lose tonight, America lost tonight. Sleep well democrats, you have a lot of work to do.

@Pete – too many posts to count
I think you either forgot to take your medication or it is no longer effective in treating your paranoia.
Seriously, what exactly do you think Obama will do, or has done, that will “destroy” America? For one, I believe this country is more resilient than what one man can do.
Let’s see..
- Ensuring women have equal pay to men for the same work
- Reasonable regulation of wallstreet so they can no longer engage in predatory practices on consumers or investments that threaten our financial system
- Rescue the auto industry
- Kill OBL and decimate AQ’s command and control infrastructure
- Achieved steady, albeit slow, PRIVATE SECTOR job creation after GWB’s loss of over 500K per month
- Gave LGBT individuals the right to serve their nation openly as they have done in secret for 200+ years
- Ended the war in Iraq with a timeline to bring troops home from Afghanistan
- SMALLEST increase in government growth, as a percentage of GDP, in the last 50 years
- Overseen the recovery of the stock market which benefits individual investors, pension plans, etc.
- Enacted legislation to increase fuel economy
- Overseen the largest increase in domestic fossil fuel production (oil and gas) ever
- Passed the first comprehensive health care reform in 100 years – reforms that were advocated by Republican Presidents beginning in the early 1900s to ensure that every American has affordable access to health care
Yes, these things are destroying America. A Romney presidency would have wiped out all those gains and replaced it with eliminating Medicare as we know it, decimating Social Security and other safety net programs, given trillions in tax breaks to the wealthy while increasing taxes on the middle class…the list goes on and on.
But you just continue in your bitterness. I hope for your sake you seek treatment because anger and hatred will eventually kill you.
Look before I leap...

Folks will wake up in the morning and realize that;
Hurricane Sandy hit the northeast while the dems were campaigning
Libya is a mess, and you will not be able to dodge questions any longer
4 dead Americans in Benghazi
There really are some countries that just don’t like us, and Obama wants to down size our military
Mitt Romney was a really nice guy, and Ryan is a whole lot smarter than Biden
Unemployment WENT UP last month, with no sign of it going down anytime soon
He said if unemployment was not down to 5%, he would be a 1 term president. He lied.
Gas prices are above $3 a gallon, not $1.80 like they were when Obama was first elected
Record number of people on welfare
Record number of people receiving food stamps
Can’t blame the previous administration, you are the previous administration
Hard to build a ‘legacy’ when you only have the support of 50% of the people
Terrorists may support Obama, but I don’t think they will invite him over for dinner
Joe Biden IS STILL the vice president
Universal healthcare really isn’t such a great idea when we have a deficit of 6 trillion dollars
Have fun Barack, you have the full support of 50% of a grateful nation.

@ Pete
You are delusional, please check your medications…
- Hurricane Sandy happened when both candidates were campaigning. Unfortunately for Mittens, he said FEMA should be virtually eliminated. FEMA has responded and the keynote speaker at the Republic conclave in Tampa thanked BO for his help
- Libya is a mess. I lived there. Have you ever been outside the U.S. Questions about GWB’s knowledge of OBL’s plans for attacks, weapons of mass destruction took years to sort out so shut up
- Obama is “right-sizing” our military. We spend more on military than all of our potential adversaries combined. Spending more doesn’t make you stronger, it makes you poorer
- Mitt Romney is not a nice guy – he loathes the “little people” just like Leona Helmsley. Why did Biden wipe his ass with Ryan’s gym face during the debate if he is so smart?
- Unemployment has trended downward from the +500K job losses under the previous Republic president. And that with ZERO cooperation from the Republic House
- He never said if it wasn’t down to 5% he would be a one-term president
- Gas prices are very low relative to demand. Recall that when GWB left office the world economy was in a spiral. Demand was down significantly. I would have thought you “supply siders” would understand such basic concepts. I guess I am wrong.
- Yes with the economic downturn initiated by GWB more people need assistance in the worst economic situation since the Great Depression. No surprise there. But it was the Republicans that brought us this disaster
- Record number on food stamps (please see above) – a GWB failure
- We are not blaming the previous administration other than to say that the situation BO faced when he came to office was the result of the previous administration and 4-eyes McConnell stated his only job was to defeat BO this election cycle. Well he failed
- How could Robme have built a legacy with less than 50%?
- Terrorists support BO? Please give me evidence? OBL and the other AQ operatives that have been hunted down and killed by BO disagree.
- Yes Biden is still the VP. A big step up from gym-boy Lyin-Ryan
- The ACA will actually reduce the deficit per the CBO. Getting everyone insured is the sensible thing to do. It makes those “freeloaders” pay their cost to the system or at least reduce the public outlay by shifting the cost to private insurers
- BO has the support of 50% of the population and the rest of the world
Seriously Pete, take your medication or seek treatment. I think it is covered under the ACA.

Obama: ‘We can seize this future together’ the AJC’s main headline!
seize
[seez] Show IPA verb, seized, seiz·ing.
verb (used with object)
1.
to take hold of suddenly or forcibly; grasp: to seize a weapon.
2.
to grasp mentally; understand clearly and completely: to seize an idea.
3.
to take possession of by force or at will: to seize enemy ships.
4.
to take possession or control of as if by suddenly laying hold: Panic seized the crowd.
5.
to take possession of by legal authority; confiscate: to seize smuggled goods.
Of course Bookman and everyone else is going to claim he chose that word flippantly and he doesn’t have speech writers who toil over every word.

But the Republic party has chosen to hate the President and do NOTHING to help the American people. Aren’t they great Americans? NOT.

All the Billionaire money was wasted (could have been used for much better things), All the doom saying was ignored. May the Republicans in Congress take note.

I really don’t think you understand. This country is going downhill fast with Obama at the wheel. He has shown no interest in compromising with the republicans at all for 4 years. Thus debt ceiling is a HUGE issue, and it has to get resolved by the end of the year. He HAS to get republican support as he does not have a super majority. He has lost a lot of political capital, and he is too arrogant to compromise with republicans. But that do you care, Obama won and we still have 6 billion in debt, and the bad guys still don’t like us too much.
Enjoy your victory.

Be on the look out for an e-mail from your company turning the responsibility over to you to buy your own health insurance. They’ll be getting out of that part of your life.
The question is; How long will the process take to transfer group coverage health insurance from being purchased by private business to you shopping for coverage and being totally implemented and over seen by government agencies?
You’ll be given a choice of plans by the government and there will be different levels, Bronze, Gold, Silver etc.
You’ll see a temporary windfall until you have to start paying it yourself.
Educate yourself because it’s going to be very confusing for some on which plan to purchase.
Of course, as you know you’re already paying for someone else’s coverage with the changes that Obama initially implemented when he took office.
And of course you know that the amount and quality of your coverage didn’t increase for the extra money taken out of your check. It’s doubt-full that it will with the upcoming changes either.
Sadly, it won’t affect a large population of folks because they’re not paying anything anyway.
Those working and earning income are footing the bill.
But, hey the country spoke and this is the direction that the electoral college wanted to go.
Get used to it.
Better work hard. Make as much money as you can and try to invest it off shore.

I am so proud of our nation. The voices of the masses spoke loud and clear, with some citizens remaining in line to vote for hours in the cold in order to be the determiners of how they will be governed and to determine the type of government that they wish for themselves, today. The billionaires were unsuccessful in trying to buy stealthily the America that they wanted, which would have primarily served their interests, the few of wealth and power.
Thomas Jefferson: “Some men look at constitutions with sanctimonious reverence and deem them like the arc of the covenant, too sacred to be touched. They ascribe to the men of the preceding age a wisdom more than human, and suppose what they did to be beyond amendment. . . .I know. . . that laws and institutions must go hand in hand with the progress of the human mind. . . .As. . . new discoveries are made, new truths disclosed, and manners and opinions change with the change of circumstances, institutions must advance also, and keep pace with the times. We might as well require a man to wear still the coat which fitted him when a boy, as civilized society to remain ever under the regimen of their barbarous ancestors. . . .Each generation. . . has. . .a right to choose for itself the form of government it believes most promotive of its own happiness. . . .”

Parents: Come here kids it’s time for a family discussion. We know that you love your Nanny very much. She takes good care of you. She takes you the Chuckie Cheese almost every day and to the zoo and the water park. She feeds you the best lunches and takes all your clothes to the Chinese laundry to be washed and all that. She tells you everyday that she will keep you safe and happy forever. The trouble is, children, that all this stuff is very expensive and Nanny doesn’t really have any money – she spends Mommy and Daddy’s money on you. Mommy and Daddy’s income has flatlined over the past few years while all the things Nanny buys for you get more expensive.
We think that you kids are old enough to look after yourselves. If we keep Nanny it means that Mommy and Daddy won’t have any money for retirement or to send you to college. It also means that after we are gone you will have to pay off all the debts we ran up to pay for the things Nanny buys for you.
We’ve decided that instead of making tough decisions ourselves that might cause you to have a little less fun with Nanny, we are going to let you kids vote on whether to keep Nanny or not.

You have to scratch your head about an electorate that re-elects Obama and a republican house
Not really, as one vote doesn’t really have anything to do with the other. Presidential votes are based on statewide polling while House votes are concentrated into districts designed to elect people along partisaned lines.

Before Republicans conclude that they had an insufficiently conservative candidate, they should consider what happened in the Senate — a near wipeout. If the party goes hard right, selecting candidates even less appealing to women, minorities and an increasingly secularized society, it is hard to see how they will improve their standing.
Republicans now will need to develop a strategy for addressing our fiscal problems with only one house of Congress in their possession. They will need to look at what the voters are telling them and who the voters are in the 21st century — fewer marrieds, more secular, more ethnically diverse.
Seems like the introspection parade has began….

If you make over a quarter million a year, well, yeah, the trend of unemployment is down, regardless of month to month variations, and Obamacare’s been the law for quite some time now.
Ever thought of looking at things like value of personal retirement accounts, rise in the stock market, foreclosure rate, housing appreciation rates, corporate profits, number of personal bankruptcies caused by catastrophic health care costs, stuff like that?

This was an election over social issues. It proves that 50% of us still hold on to traditional societal views, 50% do not. I do not believe anything was settled tonight, I believe it will only get worse. Tonight, a huge wedge was driven between us, and I do not believe time will heal the wound. These last 4 years have been a constant battle between the left and the right. I don’t see an olive branch offered in peace anytime soon.

We are NOT black, Hispanic, living on the public dole, etc., etc, etc, etc, Until you Republicans gain back your sanity, shed Rove, Trump (what an idiot!), Grover Norquist, and the like of Mourdock and Akins, you will NEVER EVER see my vote. I had to be out of town on business, so I voted last week. I wrote in Charles Darwin instead of voting for dingbat Paul Broun. By the way, I was in a Starbucks in Chicago when the President’s motorcade went by, everyone jumped up and went out to watch as it sped by. These were Chicagoans that love that man and they were proud. It was still early afternoon, so they didn’t know he was going to be elected. By the way. Not one of them was black, not one was Hispanic, and, since they were drinking outrageously priced coffee, I assume they were gainfully employed. So, Repugs, spin, spin, spin, spin….

Thye can’t do that. They won’t do that. I fear they wil resport to violence since they and their nutcase man were so completely rejected by the nation. Obama won both the popular vote AND the electoral college.
We the people stood up to those asshats like the Koch brothers and Dr. Bankruptcy Donnie Trump. We rejected the bumper sticker lies of Rush and Neal. We defeated the Dr. Goebbels propaganda machine of FOX news and their talk radio puppet masters. And what do their whacked out, out of touch, blindly insane followers have to say?

I will make a prediction. To you reasonable people in the party, if there are any of you left, Chris Christy can be your next president. That is if you don’ t continue to let Norquist, Trump, Limbaugh, Boortz and Hannity lead you down the wrong path.

Just so it’s clear, it’s not Nate Silver who’s vindicated (although I imagine he will be rewarded handsomely–if nothing else, I’m pretty sure he doesn’t have to worry about paying back that $700K book advance) but rather his methodology, which was hardly his alone.
Just as you don’t only see the tired Triple Crown offensive stats for hitters on the TeeVee, at least not so much any more, but more emphasis on on-base average, so I imagine that in the next general election you will see more attention paid to an aggregate of state polling rather than the same tired and ultimately not-terribly-significant national polling.
I’m sure that the big polling players will adjust their resources and rhetoric accordingly.

Nothing, but nothing, is “permanent” in US partisan politics. Democrats can succumb to the monied interests that already pretty much own (most of) them; Republicans can return to the trust-busting populism and environmentalism of TR; their respective nominees for the nation’s CEO will reflect this.

The survival of the GOP depends on them divorcing themselves from the hard right on all social issues and concentrating on economic conservative principals.

But I voted for Obama because, quite frankly, me and my partner of 20 years, are despised by the right wing of the GOP.
