(48 posts)But that won't happen, and come to think of it, even if it did, I could see the most rabid of the Repukes still claiming that Obama somehow "stole" it.
They are insane.

(26,044 posts)If it's a narrow Obama victory, they'll claim voter fraud.
If it's a sweeping Obama victory, they'll claim a massive conspiracy of election-rigging, like when a strongman in some authoritarian state wins re-election with 99% of the vote.
It's a hopeless case.

(18,672 posts)I actually heard a co-worker say something stupid at lunch. "You know that 'Steel Magnolias' was remade with (whispers) colored people?" Jesus fucking Christ, I wanted to bang my head against something. And yes, my opinion of her is down to zero. She's a fucking racist. The other co-workers lunching with us asked her to repeat herself, and then asked what decade she was living in, LOL. I was too stunned to respond, because there is no way I heard that shit in the liberal state of Washington, but there are definitely bigots up here outside of Seattle.

(14,093 posts)"ACORN stole it," you know.
Hell, they've even managed to tell themselves, despite polling that indicated otherwise, that Bill Clinton only won two terms because Perot split the vote of a supposedly guaranteed GOP win.
To Republicans, any Democratic president is illegitimate. Ever since Reagan they've operated under the idea that the White House rightfully belongs to the GOP and that anyone else occupying it is some kind of interloper.

(24,412 posts)I have no clue. Remember, they think they OWN the WH (they've occupied the WH for 20 of the last 30 years!) so, at least to them, a Democratic victory is always a "bug" not a feature.
