Now would be a good time to start tearing down the works of the repub party. Start building it up with a libertarian slant or just court the people from it that want to effectively work on real problems, be it state control w/e...focus on real problems of freedom. Not just the empty words. Like gov in our computers, and taking our rights to play poker in the privacy of our homes with our own money, all the other kinds of bullshit that comes with it.
Really? Too bad. I know it would never happen, but I would have loved to see both the Libertarians and the Greens get 5%.Quote:

Ohio hasn't chosen a losing president since 1960, no other state comes close to our record. Ohio is always a key state in the presidential elections. I mean both candidates were in Cleveland today for a last minute pitch.
I'm just glad to have this over with already. I can listen to the radio or watch tv without all the political ads, and not come home to having 10 political calls on my answering machine. I hate living in Ohio during presidential elections. You have no idea how bad it is in this state during this time.
Just looked at CNN and the are declaring Obama the winner. Ohio put him over the electorals he needed.

The Republican party has to have a come to Jesus moment, so to speak.
Obviously the black vote went a long time ago, but the way they went out of their way to fuck themselves with the hispanic vote was hilarious. Is hilarious. It's not even like it's a complete game changer now, but it will be. For what its worth, I enjoy their self-inflicted meltdown.
Not to mention the silly social issues bullshit.
I hope they don't change things. They need to, hopefully they won't. Thankfully they have to worry about their psycho tea party base.
Obama has this now. I have a hard time seeing Romney turn this around. I get no satisfaction from the result though and looking at the system Obama is going to have a nightmare trying to get anything done. The political system is appalling and see I no real way for America to get its act together in the interests of the populace with all of the shit floating about. It is corrupt to its heart and only the indoctrinated can be celebrating any of this. There is nothing to be pleased about, the lesser of two evils wins. Nothing more.
This one leaves ya feeling empty if I'm honest. I've never felt so fingers up to both as I do this election. Obama just phoned it in as far as campaign and I don't have any reason to think things will change, and Romney never garnered serious support from right because they saw him as an 'outsider' in a way. He was adrift the whole way.
If there ever was a time to yell third party or demand alternative its now!!
On a sidenote someone needs to smack Donald trump around with a big sack of can goods while yelling 'get tha fuck ova yourself non factor' :p.
Don't be so hard on orange supremacist Donald Trump.Quote:

It isn't democracy when neither party represents the will of the people. It is just a routine.
