Romney's concession delayed

The Chinese firm he outsourced it to is having labor problems. Tagg's on the way to kick their asses, but it may take a while.

Everyone remain calm, we'll get through this.

Sorry, but I'm getting concerned.



Peace to everyone.

Warren, Grayson... we got the start of something

FDR Democrats who'll fight for working Americans.

Let's hope the spark ignites.

Christie put the blade through Romney's heart. Was it

political murder, or a mercy killing?

I'm thinking the latter. You?

DO NOT dismiss Republican claims that they're way ahead

Remember this interview with Karl Rove from Nov 2006?

SIEGEL: We’re in the home stretch, though, and many would consider you on the optimistic end of realism about -
ROVE: Not that you would be exhibiting a bias …
SIEGEL: I’m looking at all the same polls that you’re looking at every day.
ROVE: No, you’re not. No, you’re not.
SIEGEL: No, I’m not.
ROVE: No, you’re not. You’re not. I’m looking at 68 polls a week. You may be looking at four or five public polls a week that talk about attitudes nationally but that do not impact the outcome of -
SIEGEL: I’m looking at main races between – certainly Senate races.
ROVE: Well, like the poll today showing that Corker’s ahead in Tennessee, or the poll showing that Allen is pulling away in the Virginia Senate race.
SIEGEL: Leading Webb in Virginia, yeah.
Mr. ROVE: Exactly.
SIEGEL: But you’ve seen the DeWine race and the Santorum race – I don’t want to have you call races.
ROVE: Yeah, I’m looking at all these, Robert, and adding them up, and I add up to a Republican Senate and Republican House. You may end up with a different math, but you’re entitled to your math, I’m entitled to THE math.
SIEGEL: Well, I don’t know if we’re entitled to our different math, but you’re certainly -
ROVE: I said THE math. I said you’re entitled to yours.


Just like Rove predicted, Republicans went on to win both houses of Congress in that election, if by "win" you mean what the dictionary defines as "lose".

Damned Liberals and their so-called "word definitions".

It would be incorrect to say Obama won tonight

It would be more correct to say that Obama *owned* Romney tonight.

It's now clear that the win was last week, that Obama broke Beldar at that time. I believe that the moment was at the "Please proceed, Governor" mark. That was when we first saw the fear in Romney's eyes, the realization that an uppercut was milliseconds from his head and his hands were stuck in his pockets. I've never seen Beldar look afraid like that.

Bam.

My former Governor showed up tonight still looking afraid, looking all "please don't make it hurt again". This time the Mitt Flopper brought his "I'll do the same stuff that he'll do, just don't smack me down again" guise. While Obama was unable to get a claw deep into balled-up armadillo boy, there was still much violent batting around.

Owned.

Hard to tell how this will end up in November, but it's clear that Romney's been roughed up good and has lost confidence.

Beldar's terrified - just trying to avoid another beatdown

I've never seen him scared like this before - Obama really rattled his cage last week.

Hopefully Obama will coax him to stick his neck out then...

Here's what happens when spineless Democrats refuse to fix problems:

When triangulating becomes more important than delivering results, we get shit like this: Romney's family has money in Ohio voting machines.

Romney Family Investment Ties To Voting Machine Company That Could Decide The Election Causing Concern

From fucking Forbes, no less.

Really great idea to stay away from making Republicans mad by keeping hands off their precious magic electronic voting.

Ken Blackwell will be laughing so hard and continuously from now through November 6th that he'll need a Foley cather to keep the place dry.
