We stopped Obama from having a landslide!

Well, looks like you've hit the denial part in the 5 stages of grief, Benvolio...I mean, DarkCap...

Hmmmm.....

I suppose that's possible but Ben's syntax and idiom always came across as slightly, foreign, and while yes he has the blind parroting of right wing propaganda down pat, I suspect not.

"To heck with JayQueer. There's only one famous JUB troll king around here."

Never mind this thread. It wasn't meant to be taken seriously.

It wasn't a huge blowout like Lyndon Johnson had in 1964.

Seriously? You do know that Lyndon was a DEMOCRAT. He bitch-slapped Barry Goldwater 486 to 52.

If you're trying to troll, you're doing a horrible job of it.

PS - the only way the GOP has a prayer of not collapsing on itself is to stop courting the batshit racist/homophobic Teatards and start welcoming back the more rational Republicans like Goldwater. Dude even predicted that the GOP was going to fall into their slimy grip and start flying off the rails.

As if Obama's epic win wasn't sweet enough, we have the delicious frosting on the cake:

Fury, I hope we can add Allen West to that line... he didn't say anything about rape i don't recall... but he was an extremist that needs to be kicked out.

Hes a huge asshole, he is gone. Doesn't qualify for a recount the margins are too high against him

 

[Just_Believe18]

Oh, Joe Walsh is gone too? That's awesome!

Hes a huge asshole, he is gone. Doesn't qualify for a recount the margins are too high against him

The outcome doesn't qualify for an automatic recount, but that doesn't mean there can't be one. He's already filed suit in court, evidently alleging tallying irregularities -- which is the only grounds he's got to get a recount, because unlike many states Florida doesn't allow a recount at candidate's request (and cost).

So it's going to be up to a judge to decide whether whatever West's attorneys present as evidence of irregularities is good enough to drag the ballots back out.

^ And I heard that the judge turned down his request...so indeed he's toast.

He doesn't have to disgrace himself to have to hang around 81 (or is it 83 or 84, now, with the new results?) Communists anymore, now.

He's done... unless he appeals... which I don't think he has any ground to do so.

The way the judge stated it, he can try again after the election is certified. But with this against him, the next court isn't going to be likely to receive him favorably.
