2012 USA Election Day Thread

[RobbieD_PL]

Apparently the Latino vote had a particularly strong impact in Nuevo Mexico and Colorado this time around.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Tejas is going to go Purple in about 12 years. It's so god damn cute that the right wing doesn't realize it.

 

[Bobby]

Don't sleep on Barry O. Don't ever sleep on Barry O.

Best part of the election: Right-wing pundits piling onto Nate Silver, calling him a nerd and all sorts of garbage. Florida is going blue in the morning and he'll have picked 50 of 50.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

My favorite 538 tweet was "Nate Silver seems kinda gay so.... he's full of ****"

Full of WHAT you bigot ****s!? I can't wait for Dick Morris to have to answer for his bull**** predictions... oh wait, he will never have to... he'll get ignored for 2 years and then pop up during the primaries as someone who is SUPER SERIAL

 

[Bobby]

Obama is going to take Florida, Romney barely won NC, and he won Georgia by 8. If the Democrats have a strong four years they can start to eat into the South. Oh my God can you imagine the panic if Southern states start going blue.

 

[Vagegast]

America is a changed country. F*ck yeah, bitches. We did it.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

GET MONEY, **** BITCHES, FAIRFAX COUNTY RUINS THE CONFEDERACY!!!!

I ******* love this ****

In 2020 Tejas is gonna go purple. We haven't even hit the schadenfreude peak. OH ******* YES!

Oh, I can imagine. NOM NOM NOM Mother****er! This **** is gonna go hella blue when it's a white guy carrying the mantle.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

So that's where we are and I predict Obama to win with either 294 or 303 electoral votes.

For the record, Obama is ahead 303-206

 

[Bobby]

Heidi Heitkamp is leading in North Dakota with supposedly 100% reported. Huge win for Democrats if true.

Shifty, you'll absolutely love that. Check out Dean Chambers!

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Oh man, I must admit that recently I have become a good (google it), so Dean Chambers was VERY MUCH on my radar. But his final "unskewed" prediction shows that maybe he's not a complete retard... maybe he's milking retarded conservatives for all they're worth. Last night when we saw Unskewed went like 275-263 for Romney pretty much everyone (including freepers) did the Tim "The Toolman" Taylor "Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh?" The writing was on the wall. Then after the first 2 hours after the eastern timezones were closed and it was clear that Barry won the big states, **** GOT REAL!

So anyway, I'm gonna watch some Garfunkel and Oates, because USA USA USA USA!!!

 

[ShiftyPowers]

And this is the ****ting DONE! I'm ****ed up and drunk. 0bama wins, just like Randy Marsh says. ****s.

 

[Mandieta6]

Obama then, cool.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

So that's where we are and I predict Obama to win with either 294 or 303 electoral votes.

****ers. 303, with Florida going to take a month to decide.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

****ers. 303, with Florida going to take a month to decide.

And it pretty much doesn't matter, because Nate Silver nailed every state except MAYBE not Florida which was his closest prediction in a presidential state ever. NATE ******* SILVER

 

[kp41]

democrats make world so boring.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

At least they don't invade a bunch of countries

 

[ARIAGA II]

So glad 538 did it this year, NYT has to double his allowance, bright future ahead for him.
Linda McMahon losing is hilarious just because of the volume of money she spent.

Most Southern States are pretty blue in major cities, it's the rural areas that let them down.

 

[Mandieta6]

Linda McMahon as in WWE?
