| This race is over, but the conspiracy theories are about to begin. And, boy howdy, are things going to get ugly. To wit, Mitt Romney will defeat Barack Obama for the presidency on November 6, after which there will be hysterical blowback. The election result is quantifiable, with Romney consistently leading in national tracking polls, finding a level at or above 50 percent in many, and closing the necessary gaps in swing states and among demographic groups. Greater evidence can be found, however, in Obama’s sour demeanor and the conduct of his campaign. What a mess.

Here's a little prediction of one of the conspiracy sources: the total number of votes cast for president will be less, much less, than the number of people who voted. Many black voters will turn out to vote for their congressman and other down-ticket offices, but will not vote for president. Unable to bring themselves to vote for Mitt and be first-time Republican voters, they will nonetheless refuse to vote a second time for Obama, the charlatan who fleeced them and abandoned them. It's a simple explanation that the left will refuse to accept.

2, I'd like to think that you are right about the black voters feeling abandoned. Obviously those with their free cell phones don't feel that way, but let us hope that that ignorant cadre is in the minority.

I dunno, I voted early yesterday here in Ohio. Nearly half of the voters waiting in line were black. I didn't see any particular lack of enthusiasm on their part.
Of course, this is a major metro area, very much in the Democrats' pockets. The Republicans didn't even run candidates in many of the down ticket offices.

Given there is a win and a potentially crime ridden lame duck suicide run by obozo it would be the perfect time for The Donald to offer the same 5 million dollars again to more whistleblowers in smaller payments! He'll pay to make public the insane things obozo will be doing in the last few months of his royal reign, and he'll be the kindly judge of what each horrifying act is worth. O's own insider staff jumping ship, will gladly go public on obozo dirt. Go Donald !

Remember the recount in Florida and Bush v. Gore? I love deflating liberal fantasies by reminding my friends that if Gore had carried his own state of Tennessee he would have won the election today be the Former President AlGore.

Rather risky to assume a Romney win at this point. Anything that lets people assume they don't have to crawl over broken glass to get to the voting booths on Tuesday will only help Obama. I sincerely doubt the MFM will be sitting on its corrupt hands between now and voting day, passively awaiting their own defeat. Any "unforeseen event" in the next 7 days must be viewed as a potential trap or trick by the MFM/Obama campaign. Anything.

Sure, there will be some of the usual who try to excuse Obie or blame the nasty cheating uncaring republicans, but I suspect many in the dem hierarchy realize what a disgrace the prez has been.
They've compromised themselves already and aren't likely to go one step further for this loser. He's demonstrated he cares not about them, only himself
That and a landslide should quiet the libs for a good while....those few that remain.

This is the delicious part.. FTA "We often see leftist orthodoxy morph into popular convention. This is because, while there are some smart people on the left, it requires almost no thinking to be a liberal. Simply absorb the political sentiments you hear in almost any Hollywood film, or on most any television program or newscast and, presto, you’re in. Repeat these nostrums at school or work and you will be rewarded. Augmented by the emotional satisfaction of the left’s perpetual righteous indignation, this dynamic becomes self-fulfilling and very cozy."
I just hope the outcome is what they say.. I will sleep a little better next Wednesday.

Do not take anything for granted. Vote and work as if we are trailing in the polls. The left would love nothing more than to repress voter turnout. I will not rest easy until the votes are counted and Romney is declared the winner. I am optimistic but also a realist who doesn't trust anything the left says. My plan is to pray, vote and hope that reason and sanity prevail.

At this late date I still don't know. I feel that Romney is going to win the election, but I can't shake the feeling that the Dims will pull something that could change the outcome of that which the majority will have voted. You know. Cheat. That's what they do. Especially in states that are close. As we all here know, these people will go to any lengths to win. And that includes any and all illegal tactics.
I know that some of the despair I feel at times is brought on by the junk that Dims are put out for the express reason to suppress the Republican vote. But, at least for me, it won't work. I've already voted!

So do we continue to fight the partisan press for President Romney? Who else can whip them into line but the people? Time for the people to stand and deliver still IMO.
Even with reporters like the dude at Buzzfeed lay in wait for a President Romney to make a gaffe or something they can spin into a gaffe, next president, Romney, is not media shy like GWB and he seems to not mind talking over them to the people. But don't expect him to demonize democrats like the abysmal partisan president we now endure.

Never underestimate the commies ability to "fix" things the way they need them. I will be apprehensive until the results come in November 6th/7th. Nothing is settled until then.
And even then, if the results are good, the task of ridding the WH of the anointed one will be like pulling teeth (no anesthetic, of course). A herculean chore followed by nearly a million other chores to rectify the damage done to our beloved country.

Romney will win. It is God's will. This Nation is at a frightening crossroads. This election is in the hands of God, and he expects US to work through Him. Hold firm in your Faith; vote, and encourage others to vote for Mitt. I am not mistaken that those open to such things can see, and sense, that Mitt Romney is radiating a light of Protection.
I watched MSNBC yesterday and Tingles was practically sobbing into his morning Starbucks toddy. He stated something to the effect that Obama can win now "ONLY if HE (BHO)believes and HOPES (his emphases) he can win." Tingles has the inside dope, no doubt. Otherwise he would have had that insipid smirk on his face. Ditto the android pawning herself off as a lesbian.

We don't have to worry, as #54, about "the Republican Party" counting the votes. Turns out - we _are_ the party and we _can_ be involved.
I just signed up to be a poll watcher. I am looking forward to the adventure and will report back anything I see here in the blue state of MA. They are sending me not to a poll in my nice suburban town with all its Scott Brown signs, but to nearby Lowell which is one of the blue spots.

Obie and Bite Me are done. Start packing your bags, boys. But, somebody needs to slow Obie down during the lame duck period so he can't sign any exec orders or pardons.

No. 30 unfortunately has it right, if Obama loses there will be riots in the streets and not just in the northern and west coast cities either. Everyone has been buying gold as a hedge against a larger depression which will surely come in O's second term. I am not buying gold but ammunition because if he wins again that ammunition will be just as valuable as gold. Not to mention the fact you will need it for personal protection. We are in a no win situation no matter how this election goes.

Denver-based CNN journalist Jim Spellman says the total lack of media coverage of the legal travails faced by Fox News reporter Jana Winter for protecting her sources clearly demonstrates an anti-Fox News bias in the press. Spellman claimed in a tweet that if Winter, who faces a subpoena and potential contempt of court charges for protecting her sources, worked for the New York Times instead of Fox News, the case would be garnering far greater exposure. “Observation: If @janawinter, who may go to jail to protect sources, worked for @nytimes instead of @FoxNews the case would be huge,” Spellman tweeted Sunday night.

In the U.K., private ownership of firearms is virtually banned. Professional criminals can still get guns, of course, but for your typical thug, knives are the weapon of choice. Thus there has been a steady outpouring of concern over burgeoning “knife crime” in recent years. The Sun undertook a bit of investigative journalism to find out how easy it is to obtain knives illegally, and was shocked at the result: LETHAL swords, machetes and knives are being sold illegally to children — with no questions asked.

Obama will release his budget this week, and we already know that he´s going to try to stake out a treacherous "middleground" as he attempts to cast himself as a bold centrist, willing to stand apart from leftist Democrats. He´ll do so by, reportedly, introducing a Chained CPI, which is a way of cutting Social Security by using a different inflation measure that won´t rise as much. Liberals are already livid. Congressman Jerry Nadler — who is part of the Democratic party´s Progressive Caucus — slammed the reports in a comment made on Friday: I am quite concerned by reports

Amid all of the very real threats of war and stuff from North Korea, you´d think American intelligence officers want as much video footage of the enemy as possible. Well, here is one video featuring North Korean exercises and Kim Jong-Un holding a gun, and we´ll say this: they certainly get points for presentation. Remember the clap-happy report from Dennis Rodman´s diplomatic basketball vacation? This video comes courtesy of the same Youtube channel that gave us that Rodman video.

While politicians talk about expanding background checks for gun owners, I’m starting to think that what we really need are IQ tests for political officeholders. The only problem is, that might leave us with a lot of vacancies in Congress and America’s statehouses. The debacle over New York’s rushed-through gun bill is one example of what happens when enthusiasm meets stupid. But another is to be found in Rep. Diana DeGette (D-Colo.), who supports a ban on full-capacity magazines without understanding what a magazine actually is. Last week, DeGette justified her position this way: “I will tell you these are ammunition,

Secretary of State John Kerry is worth some $200 million, give or take a yacht. So his decision to slap a 5% pay cut on himself in solidarity with government employees squeezed by sequestration won’t likely hurt him much. But he’s saving taxpayers another way, too — if unintentionally. And it’s downright troubling. How else is Kerry saving money? He’s failing to hire folks to fill key spots at his agency. Terrific. Think about it: With the North Koreans threatening nuclear strikes against America — and Kerry himself preparing to visit South Korea this week — wouldn’t it be a tad helpful

In March, the number of Americans who dropped out of the labor force increased by 663,000 which adds up to a record 90 million Americans who are no longer looking for employment. Zero Hedge reported: This was the biggest monthly increase in people dropping out of the labor force since January 2012, when the BLS did its census recast of the labor numbers. And even worse, the labor force participation rate plunged from an already abysmal 63.5% to 63.3% - the lowest since 1979!But at least it helped with the now painfully grotesque propaganda

Roman Catholic, Jesuit-affiliated Gonzaga University in Spokane, Washington has refused to recognize the Knights of Columbus as an official student group because — wait for it — the Knights of Columbus is a Catholic organization. Gonzaga administrators notified the students who had sought the school’s official seal of approval last month, reports The Cardinal Newman Society’s Catholic Education Daily. “The Knights of Columbus, by their very nature, is a men’s organization in which only Catholics may participate via membership,” reads a letter written by Sue Weitz, vice president for student life. “These criteria are inconsistent with the policy

After 69 years, Newt Gingrich is wealthy, a celebrity, and the owner of a tony home in Northern Virginia. His place in the history books, as the leader of the Republican revolution, has long been established. But the former House speaker isn’t ready to fade away. “I don’t rule it out,” he said on Thursday over breakfast, when asked about a future presidential run. He spoke excitedly about his company, Gingrich Productions, and his upcoming trip to South Carolina, where he won the Republican primary last year. Gingrich’s unflagging energy isn’t surprising.

Going with his parental gut, President Obama applauded in 2011 when Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius barred girls under 17 from obtaining the morning-after pill without a prescription. He pictured 10- and 11-year-olds buying pregnancy prevention medicine as easily as bubble gum and drew a line. “As the father of two daughters, it makes sense to apply some common sense,” the President said. Now, a Brooklyn federal judge has ruled that moms and dads — including the ones in the White House — are owed no legal say over whether very young daughters can pop a hormonal contraceptive

A restaurant where President Obama took winners of his 2012 campaign’s “Dinner with Barack” contest was forced to close this week because it was cited for failing to comply with Washington, D.C.’s health and sanitation regulations. Smith Commons, located in the H Street corridor of Washington, D.C. is a popular dining destination in Washington. According to WUSA9, Smith Commons was cited for “operating without hot water and without a staff member certified in managing food safety.” When WUSA9 asked whether the problems had been remedied, the establishment declined to answer.

It would take superspin powers to portray the March jobs report as anything other than a huge step in the wrong direction. The US economy added just 88,000 jobs last month, 95,000 in the private sector as public payrolls fell by 7,000. The official unemployment rate ticked down a tenth of a point to 7.6%. 1. That is a paltry number of jobs, more or less matching assumed labor force growth per month. So the economy must add at least that many jobs just to keep the labor market at current depressed levels.

HARTFORD, Conn. -- With time running out on the chance to pass gun control legislation, President Barack Obama on Monday warned Congress not to use delaying tactics against tighter regulations and told families of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting victims that he´s "determined as ever" to honor their children with tougher laws. Obama´s gun control proposals have run into resistance on Capitol Hill, leaving their fate in doubt. Efforts by Senate Democrats to reach compromise with Republicans over expanding required federal background checks have yet to yield an agreement, and conservatives were promising to try

North Korea’s young leader Kim Jong-un is waiting for United States President Barack Obama to make a phone call to Pyongyang to discuss easing tensions on the Korean peninsula, according to Russia’s news agency Itar-Tass. The report cited United Kingdom diplomats, saying Pyongyang was demanding the U.S. president personally call Kim Jong-un as one of the conditions to relieve the current conflict at hand. Itar-Tass also quoted the U.K.’s Sky News as saying North Korea currently has eight nuclear warheads.

Beginning a week of high pressure on gun control, the White House on Monday accused some Republican senators of cowardice for planning to filibuster gun legislation without allowing the full Senate to vote on President Obama’s initiatives. “If they oppose this legislation, have the courage to say so on the floor and vote no,” said White House press secretary Jay Carney. “Don’t block it. Don’t hide behind a procedural action to prevent a vote. That’s the wrong thing to do, and that’s how the president clearly feels.”

The letter from the group, “Special Operations Speaks,” supports the appointment of a special committee tasked with the single mission of investigating the attack that left Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans dead, and shut down the CIA operation in an annex of the Benghazi consulate, in the Sept. 11, 2012 attack. “Congress must show some leadership and provide answers to the public

There was growing buzz over the weekend that a bipartisan agreement on gun control — a deal that would expand background checks — could hit the floor as early as this week. However, any deal could be derailed by the looming threat of a Republican filibuster involving Texas Sen. Ted Cruz. With Cruz standing proudly in the way of any gun legislation, Democrats are trying to make him pay a political price — and even a couple of high-profile Republicans are questioning his tactics.

The case of a same-sex Connecticut couple accused of repeatedly raping and abusing two of their nine adopted boys is headed for trial. Married couple George Harasz and Douglas Wirth of Glastonbury were supposed to be sentenced Friday in Hartford Superior Court under a plea deal, but instead withdrew from their agreement with prosecutors. The men had already pleaded no contest in January to one felony count each of risk of injury to a minor — a reduction from even more serious charges related to sexual assault....
