Regardless of what happens tonight, tomorrow this man will still be president.

[Drunken Irishman]

And will be for the next two years.

1. If I may be so bold . . .

So what? He won't be able to get a damn thing done.

[Ykcutnek]

2. He'll get a lot done, but nothing the base supports. nt

[Drunken Irishman]

3. So what? Would you rather have a Republican president and Republican House & Senate?

[Brigid]

4. Doesn't seem to make any difference anymore.

We are completely on our own, folks. We cannot count on our elected officials for anything.

[Drunken Irishman]

5. Sure it does.

[Brigid]

9. A lame duck president with a congress . . .

That hates the people of this country with a passion. Not much to work with there.

[Drunken Irishman]

11. Nope. But it means at the worst nothing gets done.

Which is better than the Republicans having a rubber stamping president in office.

[brentspeak]

7. For all practical purposes,

we WILL have a Republican president.

[RichGirl]

6. Let's hope....

That as Bill Maher has stated...we'll finally see the angry black man half of Obama...instead of his nice guy white half.

Maybe this is what he needs to get things done and stop caring so much if people like him.

[LittleBlue]

8. Is that supposed to be reassuring? Because I see a lot of compromise coming

[titaniumsalute]

10. No we are now the United States of Koch

Obama doesn't run shit. The Hosue is Right, the Senate is Right, the Supreme Court is Right. The Media is Right.
