Common sense thoughts on what happened in the election

[Suwannee Tim]

Look at my beautiful, 100% red state of Oklahoma. The tide may be turning blue, but it will take a LONG time for it to wash over us Okies!

How 'bout that! Almost makes me want to move! But lemme ask you one question: If Oklahoma is so great how come everyone in Texas hates it?

Every Republican knows you have to beat them by the margin of fraud.

Common sense from Ann Coulter. I could not have said it better myself. I love Ann Coulter. A kind of brotherly / sisterly love. She's too boney for the other kind.

She is wrong about the primaries - if you don't vet the candidate in the primary process you get a debate performance like Obama's first one this year.

Ann is in the bag for establishment Republicans, that's who buy her books.

Some of you have already touched on it, but I viewed a couple of stats yesterday that speak very deeply about where we are at and the direction we are headed. Andrea Tantaros on Fox News stated yesterday that when Reagan first ran against Carter that 29% of the population was dependant on welfare, for this election 49% are dependant on welfare. I hope people think really hard on that one.

IMO, and to put it very simply, the ball is over the peak, headed down, picking up momentum and there is no turning back.

THAT map is from 2004.

I hate to break it to the tin foil hat crowd but, the election was legit. We need to drop the crying towel now and man up. Join a political group that reflects what you know to be truth. Spend less time on the web and more time convincing the idiots as to where we know where we are headed.

You all know this, you just need an asshole like me to remind you and tell you to stop the bs and get back in the fight. Quit talking about it and do something. Especially get involved with any youth or youth group. It is our future!! Choose to fight or move into your bunker.

PS...this is my vent...That fat piece of shit Chris Christie can kiss my pimply hairy ass. There I feel much better so, I'm back in the fight.

Not seeing a lot of common sense with the armed uprising talk and bullshit like that in this thread. "Common sense." Get it?

We are Americans and when we loose, it is not an excuse to secede or talk armed rebellion. We want to strengthen State's rights, not weaken them.

I heard republican turnout this time around wasn't that big.

Anyone got a reputable source for this stat?

It was less than McCain which was less than turned out for Bush in 2004 but Democrat voter turnout was also lower this time than 2008.
This time Obama (so far) has only gotten around less than 3 million more than Romney so far. McCain got a little over 9 million votes less than Obama.

Romney did get 206 electoral votes vs. McCains 173.
