Head honcho of the Conservatives (not Prime Minister Scott Morrison) in bambuland (Right wing with Medicare for all, social programs for all, tow back the boats, seal the borders)...said on tv at the beginning of the election coverage yesterday, about Trump: "looks like he's going to lose the unlosable election thru his own arrogance and stupidity."

You guys have to give it a rest.   C'mon one of you be the better man and stop.

Both sides, huh?

Not even close.  Trump saw good on both sides.  I'm not seeing good on either.

Cool.

Utley gets his wish.

I’m out.  I’ll not respond to him again.

Peace.

So ends today's local chapter meeting of the RGI.

Yes...


"Peace".

Seems no one knows shit down there.
It's more like Trump came close to winning an unwinnable election.


Looks like Biden takes WI.
And might be in good shape in both MI and even PA (mail in ballots heavily skewed Biden 2:1 so far).

Hey, MODERATOR, can you start deleting the Larry/Uno flame posts? 

My thought:  if people can't grasp that neither whites nor blacks nor latinos are a "block" of voters, then they really aren't paying attention. 

Maybe time to retire the whole "black people should have voted this way" and "white people should have voted this way," garbage.

If elected as moderator I would convene a study on deleting posts.  I envision a bi-partisan group of posters who would make recommendations to reform the forum system which has gotten "out of whack".

After eight years under the steady leadership of Joe and Kamala, we’ll all be singing Kumbaya -

at AOC’s inauguration for her eight years of presidency.

. Which was my fucking point. Lawrence blamed whites for the closeness of this election. "You ought to wonder what the fuck is wrong with white people."

 I called him out. Don't lump me in with his bigotry.

AZ and WI for Biden.
Just need MI and NV both of which are looking close but Blue.
With PA a possibility and GA a bit of a stretch but still doable as well.

Pump the brakes. You won't know until Friday. Then it has to be certified. then the electors have to meet...then...well, you should know the story by now.

As they used to say in the Sixers front office. "Trust the process."

Do not believe my worthy opponent, no matter how sincere he seems or how nice his legs.  His ideas are nothing but a Trojan Horse for secret Death Squads which cause posters who say anything stronger than "horse poo" to vanish in the night, never to be heard from again.  It's true our threads will no longer explode in flames, but will it be worth it, if we also extinguish the warm hearth of Free Speech and passionate rhetoric forever?  And what about the children??

That's a bunch of malarkey! C'mon man! You're confused. He thinks he's running against someone else.

President Donald Trump's campaign will immediately request a recount of votes in the key battleground state of Wisconsin, even though the state's presidential election results have yet to be finalized.

https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-campaign-immediately-request-recount-175322704.html

Behave as expected.  Because according to Trump's team nearly 21000 voters cheated.

Jill Stein has my vote for moderator if we can’t get Ralph Nader.

I’m wondering what the fuck is wrong with white people.

The exit polling I'm seeing has:

White Men (32% of the voters)
58-40 for Trump.

White Women (33% of voters)
55-43 for Trump

Every pigmented group voted Biden.
Out of those, Trump did best with Latino Men 36:61 (6% of the vote total).

So indeed Trump was backed by Whites.
Trump just had the worst year of any president in nearly half a century and still just barely lost (I've predicted a Winner)

Yup.

Got to destroy the republican bench, money, and mouth pieces before they regroup.

Espionage investigation of every individual and organization that picked up and amplified a Russian talking point since 2012.

Corruption investigation of everyone that got a no-bid contract or regulatory change or carve out under trump.

Plus hit the whole GOP for anything they did on tape under the trump protective glow that was clearly in violation of the Law.

Flip everyone on everyone where and whenever possible.

Make it a big big stink.
