hey are we really sure theres no voting booth fraud in some of those electronic booths? it's very strange i heard some people in RL ssay it, but ont the internet, i dont really see any recent articles on it.

exp: i think you are way too optimistic in what obama would accomplish.  i for one do not believe obama will escape from the shit direction of the war and economy.  it will get worse.  and obama will get the shaft simply for not 'changing' their direction.

whenver someone runs on Hope or Change, plenty people will get disappointed.  That's not a hit against obama, thats just realistic.

Cool, I'll post some useful information in this thread.

This is a list of poll closing times around the country. (http://swingstateproject.com/showDiary.do?diaryId=3641)  Will give us an idea of when stuff will be called.  I expect that the first states to be called will be SC for McCain and VT for Obama, both right at 7 pm.

Marc Ambinder over at The Atlantic has a list of counties that will be indicators in PA, NC, NV and CO. (http://marcambinder.theatlantic.com/archives/2008/11/counties_to_watch_pennsylvania.php)  Also in FL, VA, and OH. (http://marcambinder.theatlantic.com/archives/2008/11/counties_to_watch_florida.php)

You can use the DKos scoreboard to watch results come trickling in. (http://scoreboard.dailykos.com/map/)  Or if you don't like clicking on Kos' site, try the CNN Election tracker. (http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/results/president/)  I like the Kos tracker, though, it's easy to use and fuck around with.  Hopefully it gets updated in a timely manner on election day.

For my election night drinking game, I have decided to drink a bottle of Miller High Life (the champagne of beers, natch) for every Senate seat the Dems take from the GOP.  And if/when Obama wins, I'll buy a cheap and shitty bottle of actual bubbly to pop open.  I plan on being tore up from the floor up Wednesday morning.

Also, here are my final predictions:

Obama 54% to McCain 45%.
Obama 386 to McCain 152 in the electoral college.
Obama will carry all of the Kerry states plus Iowa, New Mexico, Virginia, Ohio, Florida, North Carolina, Indiana, Colorado and Nevada.  Plus my super special upset states:  Georgia!, Montana, North Dakota and Nebraska CD-2.  McCain will barely hold him off from getting 400 electoral votes by narrowly winning in Missouri, Arizona and Louisiana. 
The Dems will win 36 House seats, including both of the Diaz-Balart brothers seats in south FL, Dave Reichert's seat in WA-08, Michelle Bachman's seat in Minnesota and John Shadegg's seat in AZ-03, which will take three days of careful counting to confirm.
The Dems will win 10 Senate seats:  VA, CO, NM, NH, OR, AK, NC, KY, MN and GA.  This will allow them to get a 60 seat super majority in the Senate and still tell Lieberman to fuck off.
I will call my conservative friends up throughout the night and tell them that I plan on exhuming Ronald Reagan's corpse and pissing on it.

Three reasons to vote for Barack Obama:

1. He karate-chopped Cobra Commander.


(http://www.the-isb.com/images/Obamadok.jpg)

2. He negotiated a truce with MODOK.

I'm not sure I see McConnell losing either, but it's been a tricky race to poll or predict. I would intuitively think that Musgrove/Wicker would be closer but the amount of shady shit that Haley Barber and co. would do to win that race is not possible to estimate. I still have the Senate at 57-41-2 in the end.

I'll actually agree with all of these picks.

I will be volunteering until 5:00 or so on election day, then heading home with takeout Thai food and SLAMMING the hard stuff to hit instant inebriation, staying there with a constant stream of Rodenbach Grand Cru and punting down a B-52 every time we win a "real" swing state (OH, FL, MO,NC,IN,MT,ND, NV).

Strange times we live in.

The Dems made some great decisions in the past four years after Kerry's defeat, obviously starting with electing Howard Dean chairman of the DNC, then putting ass whoopers like Rahm and Schumer in charge of the DCCC and DSCC, and finally nominating a candidate who wasn't going to have the same old beltway distinguished mentally-challenged fellows run his campaign.  Obama is the big black cock that is going to brutally savage the GOP tomorrow night, but Axelrod and Plouffe are the big swinging balls that run things.  It's no accident that when Dems go outside the beltway for people to run their campaigns (Begala and Carville were from Texas and Louisiana, Ax and Plouffe from Chicago) they win.  Learn this lesson, people!

Some of my friends decided to make a statement and vote for "justice" (I'm not kidding).  I'd imagine that a lot of people on both sides doing throwing away 5% of votes in the "I hate blacks but love liberty" category and making it harder to figure out who really won in case of a 2000 style head-ache.

More disturbingly, they all were pretty for gay rights and marriage a couple months ago until one of their moms joined the prop 8 campaign and literally told them JUST once that prop 8 hurts the families.  They didn't really believe that and they admit that prop 8 is discrimination but they just could not give a shit about what goes on their ballot.

That's my experience with young voters.

Most young people don't give a fuck about anything except beer and pussy.  I wouldn't count on too much of a youth uprising for Obama.  Maybe it will increase a little from 2004 or remain the same as 2004.  I remember all the hype I heard about how the youth vote will radically change politics in 2004.  The increased drive towards early voting will probably help the most but again, there won't be a significant youth uprising.  My other two roommates couldn't give a shit and never bothered to register, for example.

I think the surge of the black voters will be the big game changer from 2004 that aren't accounted much for in polling.  Republitards will make noise about it but fuck them.

Either way, there will be some surprises tomorrow.  A lot of bitter tears to roll down the cheeks of a certain political party.

Post by: recursivelyenumerable on November 03, 2008, 01:41:15 PM
Marx was never big on redistribution of income, by the way, at least not as a goal in itself.  He was pretty clear on this, here he is in the Critique of the Gotha Program:

Quote from: Karl Marx
Quote from: The Gotha Program
3. "The emancipation of labor demands the promotion of the instruments of labor to the common property of society and the co-operative regulation of the total labor, with a fair distribution of the proceeds of labor.
(...) What is "a fair distribution"?

Do not the bourgeois assert that the present-day distribution is "fair"? And is it not, in fact, the only "fair" distribution on the basis of the present-day mode of production? Are economic relations regulated by legal conceptions, or do not, on the contrary, legal relations arise out of economic ones? Have not also the socialist sectarians the most varied notions about "fair" distribution?

To understand what is implied in this connection by the phrase "fair distribution", we must take the first paragraph and this one together. The latter presupposes a society wherein the instruments of labor are common property and the total labor is co-operatively regulated, and from the first paragraph we learn that "the proceeds of labor belong undiminished with equal right to all members of society."

"To all members of society"? To those who do not work as well? What remains then of the "undiminished" proceeds of labor? Only to those members of society who work? What remains then of the "equal right" of all members of society? (...)

What we have to deal with here is a communist society, not as it has developed on its own foundations, but, on the contrary, just as it emerges from capitalist society; which is thus in every respect, economically, morally, and intellectually, still stamped with the birthmarks of the old society from whose womb it emerges. Accordingly, the individual producer receives back from society -- after the deductions have been made -- exactly what he gives to it. What he has given to it is his individual quantum of labor. For example, the social working day consists of the sum of the individual hours of work; the individual labor time of the individual producer is the part of the social working day contributed by him, his share in it. He receives a certificate from society that he has furnished such-and-such an amount of labor (after deducting his labor for the common funds); and with this certificate, he draws from the social stock of means of consumption as much as the same amount of labor cost. The same amount of labor which he has given to society in one form, he receives back in another.  (...)

Hence, equal right here is still in principle -- bourgeois right, although principle and practice are no longer at loggerheads, while the exchange of equivalents in commodity exchange exists only on the average and not in the individual case. (...)

But one man is superior to another physically, or mentally, and supplies more labor in the same time, or can labor for a longer time; and labor, to serve as a measure, must be defined by its duration or intensity, otherwise it ceases to be a standard of measurement. This equal right is an unequal right for unequal labor. It recognizes no class differences, because everyone is only a worker like everyone else; but it tacitly recognizes unequal individual endowment, and thus productive capacity, as a natural privilege. It is, therefore, a right of inequality, in its content, like every right. Right, by its very nature, can consist only in the application of an equal standard; but unequal individuals (and they would not be different individuals if they were not unequal) are measurable only by an equal standard insofar as they are brought under an equal point of view, are taken from one definite side only -- for instance, in the present case, are regarded only as workers and nothing more is seen in them, everything else being ignored. Further, one worker is married, another is not; one has more children than another, and so on and so forth. Thus, with an equal performance of labor, and hence an equal in the social consumption fund, one will in fact receive more than another, one will be richer than another, and so on. To avoid all these defects, right, instead of being equal, would have to be unequal.

But these defects are inevitable in the first phase of communist society as it is when it has just emerged after prolonged birth pangs from capitalist society. Right can never be higher than the economic structure of society and its cultural development conditioned thereby.

In a higher phase of communist society, after the enslaving subordination of the individual to the division of labor, and therewith also the antithesis between mental and physical labor, has vanished; after labor has become not only a means of life but life's prime want; after the productive forces have also increased with the all-around development of the individual, and all the springs of co-operative wealth flow more abundantly -- only then then can the narrow horizon of bourgeois right be crossed in its entirety and society inscribe on its banners: From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs!

I have dealt more at length with the "undiminished" proceeds of labor, on the one hand, and with "equal right" and "fair distribution", on the other, in order to show what a crime it is to attempt, on the one hand, to force on our Party again, as dogmas, ideas which in a certain period had some meaning but have now become obsolete verbal rubbish, while again perverting, on the other, the realistic outlook, which it cost so much effort to instill into the Party but which has now taken root in it, by means of ideological nonsense about right and other trash so common among the democrats and French socialists.

Quite apart from the analysis so far given, it was in general a mistake to make a fuss about so-called distribution and put the principal stress on it.

Any distribution whatever of the means of consumption is only a consequence of the distribution of the conditions of production themselves. The latter distribution, however, is a feature of the mode of production itself. The capitalist mode of production, for example, rests on the fact that the material conditions of production are in the hands of nonworkers in the form of property in capital and land, while the masses are only owners of the personal condition of production, of labor power. If the elements of production are so distributed, then the present-day distribution of the means of consumption results automatically. If the material conditions of production are the co-operative property of the workers themselves, then there likewise results a distribution of the means of consumption different from the present one. Vulgar socialism (and from it in turn a section of the democrats) has taken over from the bourgeois economists the consideration and treatment of distribution as independent of the mode of production and hence the presentation of socialism as turning principally on distribution. After the real relation has long been made clear, why retrogress again?

tldr: it's about who controls the means of production, not who gets what is produced.  also the "from each ... to each ..." quote is talking about a post-scarcity society.

PA's always been solid blue on his map. McCain has pulled it within like 5 points I think. Granted thats a considerable pull down from a state that used to be like +12

Its actually make or make. His group has done probably the best job, at least approaching the polls, objectively. Some of the column entries lean a bit, but overall they give credit where credit is do and present all possible ways for McCain to win

I'm sure his site will continue to get hits in upcoming elections but if he totally botches this one he'll have to get off the high horse. His final map has Obama with 346 EC votes, ie landslide. Lots of people will have egg on their faces if McCain magically pulls this through

Obama will win PA.  McCain has made a lot of efforts there and except for a few outliers, shows a comfortable Obama lead.

Also I haven't really seen an instance where Nate was blatantly wrong.  If he made mistakes, he usually caught them, and then changed them as soon as he could.  I don't see him being that far off.  Could be within a point or two overall.

That's not what I was gambling you illiterate 14th century republican

do you not want a brand new zune? these suckers are sexy. there's no risk to you!

If you promise on your heart to keep the deal, then sure. But I refuse to be banned if McCain looses.

I will definitely keep the deal. To spell it out:

If Obama wins, Malek and Y2Kev are unbanned (presuming the mods see no problem with this).

If McCain wins, I will send you a new 8GB 3rd gen Zune(tm) player. You will not be banned as a consequence of this bet, although a) I never speak for the mods; and b) it doesn't protect you from getting banned if you act like a prat in an unrelated context.

Coolz?

I dont support bet bans. I think theyre dumb.

Will Madelyn Dunham’s Vote Count?

posted by Eli Sanders on November 3 at 5:17 PM

I was talking with a coworker earlier today about how sad it was for Barack Obama’s grandmother to have died on the day before Election Day. My coworker took the sadness one step further, wondering if Madelyn Dunham’s vote (she voted by early absentee ballot) would now not be counted.

Not knowing the answer, I called the Office of Elections in Hawaii. Kevin Cronin, chief election officer for the state, just got back to me. Here’s what he said:

    Ms. Dunham’s absentee mail ballot was received and reviewed under the Hawaii standards for processing absentee mail ballots… She was alive at that time. Her ballot will be opened tomorrow, and it will be counted in the same way that all absentee voters would be treated under our law.

The key point appears to be that Ms. Dunham was alive at the time her absentee ballot was received and reviewed, and that it met the standards for review at that time.

Madelyn Dunham’s vote will count, even if she is not here to learn the final tally.

Go vote and okay, sure, go grab a cup of coffee. Then drop by Babeland for your free sex toy, head down to the Stranger's election night bash, celebrate (jinxy!) Obama's victory, and cap off your night by inviting a some new friends back to your place to try out your new sex toys...

I just heard my dad arguing with my sister over the phone.

"We don't know anything about him except for his associations, which are all bad! He's friends with terrorists from the 1960's and 1990's! And he'll tax us out of house and home! I don't think he is an American!"

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v233/MastahCrushed/Emote/obamacry.gif)


I actually asked him over dinner, "What happened to you? You used to be a Democrat."

"I still am! But I'm not voting for that man, he's a complete unknown. And I know that John McCain is not George Bush. I don't want to vote for him, but he's the lesser of two evils."

I've accused him of being a racist for the last 5 years or so, since he talks about colored folks, nigras, and when he's drunker than usual, n-words.

He then pulls out the kindly racism card by talking about how used to play with the black chilluns when he was a little boy in Athens, GA, and how he loved his colored mammy so much and how he knows he'll see them in Heaven with Jesus, just bless those colored folks' pure and simple hearts. He thinks that the Negroes betrayed him for his support of the civil rights movement by going and becoming rappers and criminals, and that back in the old days they were much nicer, save for the usual Saturday evening "cuttings" on street corners.


And he was never a Hillary fan since he's also moderately misogynistic.

He's not really a fan of anyone, to be quite honest. He hates distinguished effete fellows and conservatives, but also anything politically correct. He's quite wary of racial minorities, but he'll accept them out of Christian goodness as long as they're clean and articulate.

Has anyone checked out foxnews.com and looked at the comments made about story on Obama's grandmother's death?  Fucking crazy of the crazy. 

"Michelle Obama's voice choked with emotion during a campaign appearance in Colorado as she asked people to remember the woman her husband called "Toot," a version of the Hawaiian word for grandmother, tutu." Like Michelle really cared about this woman. Michelle's "tears" were tears of joy. She never had a relationship with this "white" woman."

"How convenient for Obama that his grandmother died. What timing. She was the one who said that she was there for his birth in Kenya. I guess she got in the way. Also, either I've been out of the loop or missed it somewhere down the way,but I wasn't aware that she had cancer. I thought that she fell a broke a hip. That's interesting. I guess that's how the Chicago mob takes care of those who speak against their Don."

"She was murdered to hide the truth."

"I ask you all - Log onto the Obama Blog Site - Sign up with whatever emails you can mek up and FLOOD THEM WITH OUR COMMENTS - I HAVE DONE THIS FOR 5 WEEKS NOW - TO SPREAD TRUTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NO ONE HAS EVER LIED LIED LIED THIS MUCH TO EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MY LORD - SATAN IS UPON US!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "

"If in fact she died today, why is he not there. Sounds fake to me. You talk about the Republicans doing low things!"

"LIAR LIAR! SHES NOT DEAD. THIS IS JUST ANOTHER OF OBAMA CAMP'S LIES. FOOL ME ONCE, SHAME ON ME. FOOL ME TWICE, U DESEVRE OBAMA."

"DEATH CERTIFICATE or it did NOT HAPPEN!!! MCCAIN-PALN 08"

"WHO CARES... ONE NIGR LOVER LESS... MCCAIN 08"

Quote from: The Stranger
It’s the Family Values Party! Seriously!

posted by Lindy West on November 3 at 6:03 PM

Wonkette posted a little round-up of extremely sensitive reactions to Madelyn Dunham’s death from the Free Republic.

They’re all fucking bonkers, obviously:

    Seriously, has anyone actually seen this woman in recent years? If Obama has some of his thugs guarding her (and if there is, indeed, a body) I hope they do an autopsy to make sure Granny’s passing was a natural event.

    Murdered? It’s not murder when it’s for the chosen one. The dems will blame it on lack of universal health care and get a double bang for the buck. Obama will forgive her racism and find another family member to use and throw under the bus.

But I particularly like this one:

    She was swindled into raising someone else’s child. I do not believe that hussein is half white.

Because what, exactly, is the scenario you’re envisioning here, right-wing insane person? That one day, way back when, Obama’s mother was out shopping, and grabbed a box of Frosted Mini-Wheats, and went home to pour herself a bowl, but instead of delicious cereal an all-black baby fell out? And then she said, “Hmm, I have found this all-black baby. What should I do with it? I know, I’ll play a trick on mom!” And then she did!? FOR 47 YEARS? I just don’t know if you’ve thought this theory through, is all.

If McCain actually does win, I honestly don't know what it would be like.  It already boggles my mind that there is even a race between the two.  I'm all for accepting other peoples opinions, but in this case I can't grasp who anyone would look at Palin and be like "yep, I want her to make decisions for the next 4 years"; actually you can just cut that all out and wonder why they don't see Obama and aren't immediately filled with the desire to see this man as the leader of our country.  Well, I have a feeling of what its like.  It's probably just sitting back waiting to get nuked or some sensation similar to that.

Good luck and what state are you in?  Can you like say about what proportion of voters there are black?  I've heard that black registration is up to around 90% in some areas like Georgia according to Nate Silver and that a lot of black people mailed in their ballots to avoid getting screwed with 8 hour lines.  I just know that there's going to be some weird thing that happens with the black vote this election.

I am in Kentucky (for now)...not many black people in my state, nor in my voting district.

 The line was unbelievable this morning...I got to my polling place 5 minutes before they opened and was 47th in line.  I asked one of the polling officials and she said that there were 719 registered voters at this polling station.  When I left the line was just as long as when I got there....it is going to be a long night for everyone.

+1 for Obama.

Then I'm going to flood the no spin zone with fart sounds and uncontrollable laughter. Nothing in the world would give me more joy.

I got excited in 2004 when Puff Daddy told me personally that every thing was going to be alright. Look what happened.

I remember liking the way Al Gore talked as a child and look what happened.

I talked to my dad this morning (I had to explain to him that Obama's birth certificate had been produced a long time ago and that the Department of Health in Hawaii had confirmed that he was born in Honolulu, not "Keen-ya" as he puts it).

Though I think he's calmed down from last night, he's still the same ol' "amiable racist" who jokes that we'll be eating chittlins and watermelon and that "Hail to the Chief" will be replaced with "Hooba Dooba Hooba Dooba" and who says, "Make sure to vote for all the white folks!" with a laugh so that he can get a rise out of me. :-\


At least he actually pronounces Obama's name correctly now, instead of saying "o-BAM-a."

This, despite someone I know urging me and a friend to vote McCain or she'd kick our asses.  "I don't want my money being taken from me and given to some lazy ass who doesn't work!"  I didn't bother explaining the workings of the Earned Income Tax Credit, so if Maryland goes Republican by a vote, that one's on me.

Went to the local polling station, a small elementary school, around 7:45AM before work. There were people there but it wasn't really too crowded. Went to the front desk, the woman told me what table to go to to vote, so both my mom and I went over there, and voted (both Obama obviously). We didn't have to wait at all, we were in and out in a few min. I remember the 2004 election having a bigger, more hectic turnout. It was actually pretty anticlimactic this morning.

Didn't get an "I VOTED" sticker either.

McCain didn't really inspire tried and true Republicans from my experience.  Many conservatives I know, who are voting for him, are doing so for what they believe is the lesser of two evils, much like liberals voted for Kerrry in 2004.

I don't really think it mattered who was the GOP nominee. McCain probably was the best choice from an experience/C-in-C pespective, but there was little beyond that. And realistically, I don't think the re-incarnation of Ronald Reagan could win in this environment. The party needed a serious purge. Today will provide it. I just hope the religionist wing doesn't double down and take things further right. If Palin and Jindal are the top choices in the spring of '12, then they're in deep shit regardless of Obama's performance.

The problem with the republicans was their choices all felt like Bush 2. And even most republicans are really rited of Bush. Heck it was either Ron Paul or Bush 2. I guess republicans just swallowed the most palatable candidate.

The problem with the republicans was their choices all felt like Bush 2.

That's why McCain was a fatally flawed candidate. He opposed Bush on both tax cuts and the Prescription Drug Benefit - arguably the three biggest Bush initiatives besides the Iraq clusterfuck. But, there's no way he could have run on that because the base would have gone apeshit (especially the tax cut part). So, he had to adopt the tax plan and take the hit for Bush's fiscal recklessness even though he opposed it.

He's also distinguished mentally-challenged for supporting the Rays, then supporting the Philies, along with supporting the White Sox. Therefore, how can I have a president who caters to different places to make them happy? McCain doesn't do that.

Hey, man, you don't talk to Obama. You listen to him. The man's enlarged my mind. He's a poet-warrior in the classic sense. I mean sometimes he'll... uh... well, you'll say "hello" to him, right? And he'll just walk right by you. He won't even notice you. And suddenly he'll grab you, and he'll throw you in a corner, and he'll say, "do you know that 'if' is the middle word in life? If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs and blaming it on you, if you can trust yourself when all men doubt you"... I mean I'm no, I can't... I'm a little man, I'm a little man, he's... he's a great man. I should have been a pair of ragged claws scuttling across floors of silent seas...

This.  Maurice, at least Olbermann has an undertone of factual basis and has fun with his position.  He's a blowhard, sure, but he's a fucking awesome blowhard.

ohn McCain's presidential campaign is making an 11th hour appeal to Cuban Americans in Florida with a robo-call that says Barack Obama would pursue "political policies like those of Cuba."

The automated Spanish-language telephone calls began late this afternoon into Cuban households, particularly in and around the southern part of the state, and quote a Reuters story that says former Cuban leader Fidel Castro prefers Obama win the presidency.

Yeah MSNBC has:

McCain 44%

McCain win. Whatever.

South Carolina is reliably pub at this point, if it didn't go for McCain it would be very, very odd.
Probably if Obama isn't winning be a certain %, McCain will be likely to win the state by the end or something.

Each state has two senators, and the entire state votes on both.  60 senators is the magic number to completely dominate and force the republicans to make scat porn in exchange for any of there votes to pass.

So you vote for senators separably from president?  Is that how CNN has more senator numbers than stats that have closed?

Quote
My sister just called and asked me to post here for we Christians to pray and visualize a wall between Obama and the presidency that he cannot penetrate.

Please join with me as we visualize this impenatrable wall that will stop Obama while protecting us from the evil he represents.


Dear Father God,

We join together and are humbly pleading that you will protect us ,your children. Please separate Barak Obama from the POTUs by a supernatural wall that he cannot penetrate.

Let the wall that he cannot penetrate be a barrier of protection for we that belong to you and that are covered by the blood.

I pray that the precious blood of your Son Jesus cover this wall and not allow Obama to pass into the presidency.

We ask this is name of our Savior, Jesus Christ-

Amen and Amen

Maybe now McCain will transform back to his 2000 self.

I hope not, because then it means he completely sold his soul just to have his name on the 2008 ticket. That's egotism and selfishness to the nth degree.


You hope not?

cmon i think we already knwo the answer to that train of thought

My favorite moment was Biden coming out with the music in the background, giving this look and gesture to Obama as if to say, "Holy shit, we did it!  You crazy motherfucker, we did it!"

I half expected them to jump in the air and high five - then freeze frame and fade to black.

Truly a post that deserves to be put in the history books  :lol

As Bloodwake said, 1 Ounce and lower is considered a small amount (for the petty crime). $100, get your weed taken away, doesn't get put on your record.

The amazing thing (as the article stated), a lot of the local politicians were against this. It was the voters that went against this opinion and voted for it. The system works!

I was right, something funky DID happen with the black voters this election.  I just had no idea it was going to be on a non-presidential thing.  My guess is that this being the first election where a black person could win, most black voters were very anxious and voted completely on their fears for every other issue on the ballot.  The good thing is that they won't be like this in 2 or 4 years when this proposition comes up again and then I think gay marriage will be permanent in California.

I'm still going to now go into every election expecting some sort of socially disastrous thing to happen.

The REPs appear to stop the bleeding at 56 though (although I wish Stevens had lost). That's a bit of a surprise to me. I was expecting at least 58.

For all the ink and money spilled on McCain's hopes of making inroads into the Jewish vote, exit polls suggest Obama won the demographic by a margin even higher than John Kerry's, and like Al Gore's and Bill Clinton's.

The exits currently have it at 78 percent to 21 percent.

This election kind of sucks aside from Obama winning and Liddy Dole losing. 

-Prop 8 passes
-Alaska seems ok with sending Senator "Convicted Felon" Tubes back to the Senate just to see him get booted
-Michelle Bachmann, the odious Diaz-Balart brothers and all assorted other gross Congress critters got sent back
-Looks like Obama's not gonna have much in the way of coat tails- Senate races in OR and MN are too close to call but trending to the Republicans.

In the big picture, how awesome is it that you're disappointed by six seats in the Senate, twenty odd in the House, and 364 electoral votes?

I'm not sure that Obama has no coattails.  Most of the pickups seem to be in swing states where he campaigned.  Maybe he could have tipped the Oregon and Minnesota Senate races, but it was probably the right call to stay on offense in the '04 red states.

And as much as I've been pimping the demographic plate-shifting, it takes time and there's still a lot of Republicans out there who aren't going away.

Energy policy/job creation for me, at least in the sense that it seems like one of the more doable things given the current economic status. The possibilities are amazing, and while we won't be weened off oil anytime soon I really think the job creation potential would really help the country, especially states like Michigan

In general, I'm looking forward to this:

Quote from: Chris from Explananda
Politics becomes interesting again. For eight long years, the country has been run by hateful, blinkered people. During this time, and especially over the last four years, politics has only been interesting because it involves issues vital to our lives and often to the fate of humanity. What’s been largely missing is a sense that an intelligent contribution to political discourse could ever have a meaningful impact on the people who actually make decisions. For all the disagreements among Obama supporters, I think that there’s going to be a real, and extremely refreshing sense, that political debate is an area in which intelligent, well-argued, evidence-backed contributions might conceivably sway reasonable people in positions in power. A lot of very smart people all over the country are going to find that wildly exhilarating. There’s an incredible amount of pent up energy, enthusiasm and ideas out there. May it make a difference.

The adults are back in charge!

I'm not expecting too much.

- Obama's tax plan will get watered down so it can pass.  Lower and middle class families will get less relief and the upper class will have their tax increases reduced.

- Due to the massive deficits, I wouldn't expect huge amounts of money to go towards technology until we're on track to have a surplus.  He might in the second term.

- No nationalized health care in either terms.  There will be talk of it but not a lot of action.

- Foreign policy won't be much different.  It isn't like either McCain or Obama can afford the wars for too much longer anyway.  To prove that he is tough, I will expect toned down forms of sabre rattling but not even close to the extent of Bush.

The only thing I really want is a concrete plan to start paying off the massive national debt.  No sense paying $300+ billion on interest.

Which is why stuff like energy could see traction early in his term. There will be bi-partisan support, Obama is willing to let the republicans drill baby drill, McCain will probably get on board to help save his image, etc.

Foreign policy is going to be very different, come on. First off we won't see any unilateral wars built on lies

I don't know about that. Obama's campaign is paradigm shifting in that it proved that you don't need to rely on the rich elite (although having supporters such as Buffet help) for cash. He tapped the Internet and reached out to the everyman and hauled in record amounts. If the republicans are smart they will copy that strategy, become more centrist, and will do less to please the rich.

It still has some power.  It took a big hit but some left last night unscathed.  They might talk a little different now but they all got into their seats because of the rich and because of their negative campaigning.  For some of these guys, it was the only way they know how to act, politically.

Plus then you have conservative Democratic senators that might not be too trustworthy and facing a tough re-election if they were to just follow Obama.

-- The debates unnerved both candidates. When he was preparing for the Democratic primary debates, Obama was recorded saying, "I don't consider this to be a good format for me, which makes me more cautious. I often find myself trapped by the questions and thinking to myself, 'You know, this is a stupid question, but let me ... answer it.' So when Brian Williams is asking me about what's a personal thing that you've done [that's green], and I say, you know, 'Well, I planted a bunch of trees.' And he says, 'I'm talking about personal.' What I'm thinking in my head is, 'Well, the truth is, Brian, we can't solve global warming because I f---ing changed light bulbs in my house. It's because of something collective'."

There is still a chance that Obama could get an EV in Nebraska!

Quote from: Omaha World Herald
One Nebraska electoral vote remains up for grabs
BY ROBYNN TYSVER
WORLD-HERALD STAFF WRITER

Democrat Barack Obama won the presidency Tuesday, but the question of whether he scored an electoral vote in Nebraska remained up in the air.

And it could remain unanswered for a week.

Obama and Republican John McCain were locked in a virtual tug-of-war in the Omaha-based 2nd Congressional District, with the election too close to call.

At the end of the evening, McCain led Obama by 569 votes in unofficial returns.

But more than 9,000 early votes and provisional ballots were still to be counted, said David Phipps, Douglas County election commissioner. Those ballots - some of them won't be counted until next week - could decide the race in Omaha.

"This is very, very exciting. I think it's interesting, indeed," said former Omaha Mayor Hal Daub, who was McCain's state director in Omaha.

McCain won the popular vote statewide, but both Democrats and Republicans hailed the tight 2nd District contest as a good sign.

Republicans said it was an example of the Nebraska GOP being able to "weather the storm" in a difficult political climate. Democrats said it showed that their party had become energized by Obama's presidential campaign.

It assuredly will be a race for the record books.

The fact that Obama even campaigned in Nebraska - a traditional GOP stronghold - will be remembered for years. It already has altered the region's political landscape, serving as a big ego boost to Democrats.

The last time a Democratic presidential candidate won an electoral vote in Nebraska was in 1964, when Lyndon B. Johnson rolled past Barry Goldwater in a statewide landslide.

In 2004, President Bush won the 2nd District with 59 percent of the vote.

It was the first time that a single electoral vote in Nebraska had been contested since the state adopted a split-electoral system in 1991. Nebraska and Maine are the only states that have scrapped the winner-take-all system. (Maine's electoral votes were not split Tuesday.)

In Nebraska, three electoral votes are awarded based on the popular vote in each of the state's congressional districts. The final two go to the candidate who wins the statewide vote.

Tuesday's tight race was a testament to Obama's strong presence in the 2nd District. He opened three offices in Omaha and employed 16 people. He drew scores of volunteers, many of whom flocked to his offices each day to man the telephone banks or walk neighborhoods across the city.

"It's been a terrific year. God love the Obama people for coming into Nebraska. The Democratic Party has exploded in numbers because of this year's politics," said Steve Achelpohl, chairman of the Nebraska Democratic Party.

The Obama campaign not only energized the party's base, but it also brought hundreds of new voters and volunteers into the system.

For the first time in 14 years, registered Democrats now outnumber Republicans in Douglas County.

Republicans said the tight race was a good reminder that they could not take Nebraska for granted. They also said, however, that it underscored their efficient get-out-the-vote machine.

Obama spent money and resources in Omaha, while McCain did not.

Still, McCain kept it close, even though Republicans have lost registered voters in the district, said Mark Quandahl, chairman of the Nebraska Republican Party.

"In politics, it's not only registered voters, it is getting them out to vote," Quandahl said.

Obama first gave notice that he planned to compete in Omaha shortly after he sewed up the nomination. He had won the Nebraska Democratic Party's caucuses in February with 68 percent of the vote.

Nebraska was part of his plan to expand the Democrats' electoral map. Obama said he intended to compete in states and regions where previous Democratic presidential candidates never ventured.

The 2nd District was part of that new map.

McCain never followed suit. Instead, he relied solely on the Nebraska Republican Party to identify his supporters and urge them to vote. His running mate, Sarah Palin, did make an appearance in Omaha.

Several Republicans insiders said the philosophy within the McCain camp was that their time and resources were better spent in battleground states.

And if they couldn't keep Nebraska firmly in the GOP column, then McCain had little chance of winning the national election.

If Obama can get that 2nd district EV, it will make our Thanksgiving in Nebraska all that sweeter.

There is still hope. While I absolutely do not approve of assination, there is a good chance of someone trying it before he is sworn in or shortly after.

Also don't forget the challenges to his citizenship. I doubt that the people pressing that issue will slack off now. Rather, I expect them to redouble their efforts before the innauguration.

Does anyone know what the required action will be if Obama is assinated before he is sworn in? Also what does election law, or the constitution, say about the way to handle it if he is shown to be inneligible for the office? Does the succession rule that would give the presidency to Biden apply before Obama is sworn in or would we need a new election? Or a possible third scenario of McCain, with the second highest vote tally, being declared the winner instead? "

There's no way that religion alone could be responsible for this.  I mean, we have a lot of catholics as warcock pointed out yet they weren't nearly as homophobic.  I'm guessing that homophobic black voters will drop below 60% by the next election.

The religious aspect plus I think there's a stigma about homosexuality within the community, especially among black males.

With respect to Catholics I'd argue that many aren't particularly fervent followers of their faith, and on social issues they're less rigid than evangelicals and protestants

The best time of the election was the week of the Dow collapse.  McCain and Palin looked like they were going to win it and then all of a sudden, the Dow plummeted and the momentum was stopped cold.  That was not a convention bounce because people still thought Palin was intelligent and that McCain had appealed to the center with DRILL BABY DRILL.

All of that changed in just one or two days.  Pretty amazing.

Don't fuck with Rahm you'll feel sooory.
Quote
Friends and enemies agree that the key to Emanuel's success is his legendary intensity. There's the story about the time he sent a rotting fish to a pollster who had angered him. There's the story about how his right middle finger was blown off by a Syrian tank when he was in the Israeli army. And there's the story of how, the night after Clinton was elected, Emanuel was so angry at the president's enemies that he stood up at a celebratory dinner with colleagues from the campaign, grabbed a steak knife and began rattling off a list of betrayers, shouting "Dead! . . . Dead! . . . Dead!" and plunging the knife into the table after every name. "When he was done, the table looked like a lunar landscape," one campaign veteran recalls. "It was like something out of The Godfather. But that's Rahm for you."

Of the three stories, only the second is a myth -- Emanuel lost the finger to a meat slicer as a teenager and never served in the Israeli army. But it's a measure of his considerable reputation as the enforcer in Clinton's White House that so many people believe it to be true. You don't earn the nickname "Rahmbo" being timid.

Haven't read it.  I've heard good things but I'm much more interested in Obama as a political leader than as a black man in America dealing with his multiracial heritage and daddy issues.

On the other hand Audacity covers most of the topics I think of as the most important in American politics right now.  He does an excellent job of summarizing recent political history, explaining some of the major factors in the current process, suggesting specific policy guidelines, and tying it all together into a coherent whole.

If you're a huge political junkie like me most of it won't be new.  But it was reassuring that we came to a lot of the same conclusions.  There were also a few points where -- and this is a mark of good political writing for me -- he crystallized some thoughts that had been vaguely bouncing around my head for a while and left me thinking "Yes!  That's what I've been trying to say."

Media elite conspiracies? You're sounding like a lonely liberal

Palin was a disaster. Today Newsweek and other media outlets were able to dump massive amounts of formerly "classified" election notes and anecdotes.

I'm sure the media would love to see Palin in 2012 because it would guarantee views, especially when compared to the more boring candidates like Romney and Huck. She's going to be destroyed by the conservative shot callers who are more in line with Romney/Ginrich/Jindal, not by the media

I disagree. The CPAC has invited her to their pity party next year, the huge GOP leadership "secret meeting" we learned about a few weeks ago is going to be heavily discussing her future in the conservative movement, she has the potential to join the senate relatively soon, etc. All signs point up. While I do agree there is a faction of the GOP which firmly believes she needs to be silenced and discredited asap there are other "powers that be" which still see her as the ultimate trojan horse.

Four years. In four years she can totally reshape her image, making people forget about SNL and Kouric. Romney and his financial backers can try to slow her as much as they want but at the end of the day the 2012 primaries open with a series of caucuses and southern states. Expect a bitter, bitter campaign as the religious right attempts to re-assert themselves with Palin and/or Thune while economic conservatives rally around Romney, Jindal, or Ginrich (who will probably wind up as someone's VP).

And IMO Huck will be in the middle of all of this. It's been pretty damn obvious that he's been the keenest observer of Obama this year, and I think he's going to attempt to roll out a similar campaign.

I think Gingrich is going to be a much bigger player than most believe right now.

Imagine a scenario where Obama can't get the deficit under control, the economy doesn't recover as well as it should, 60% of US troops have been pulled out of Iraq with it still being relatively stable, and Afghanistan/Pakistan has completely collapsed into into oblivion.

None of that is too far fetched.

So, Gingrich comes in as the fiscal saviour and he taps Petraeus as his Veep who hammers Obama for not giving him all he needed in Afghanistan like Bush gave him with the Iraq surge. Game. Set. Match.

I love how the GOP is so starved of leadership that Sarah Palin has a chance for the GOP ticket.

It could work.  The GOP has essentially purged everyone who isn't a far right Christian with this election.  Huckabee likes doing things for the poor so he's out.  Romney has the economic appeal to the GOP but he's a filthy Mormon and while I'm sure they're happy that his people will nullify homo marriage in CA, again, the GOP has purged everyone who might be an outlier and Romney is an outlier.  He also governed an Unamerican state that went for Osama bin Barack in 2008.  Fred Thompson?  Negro please.

Maybe there will be an ambitious up and comer that might be willing to play ball.  Palin would be disastrous for the GOP and despite their nuttery, deep down, a lot of them know how stupid and shitty she is.

He'd get absolutely slaughtered in the general.  Along with Goldwater's thumping at the hands of LBJ it would provide bookends to the newly dead conservative revolution.

He had set firm boundaries: no Jeremiah Wright; no attacking Michelle Obama; no attacking Obama for not serving in the military. McCain balked at an ad using images of children that suggested that Obama might not protect them from terrorism; Schmidt vetoed ads suggesting that Obama was soft on crime (no Willie Hortons); and before word even got to McCain, Schmidt and Salter scuttled a "celebrity" ad of Obama dancing with talk-show host Ellen DeGeneres (the sight of a black man dancing with a lesbian was deemed too provocative).

I often find myself trapped by the questions and thinking to myself, 'You know, this is a stupid question, but let me ... answer it.' So when Brian Williams is asking me about what's a personal thing that you've done [that's green], and I say, you know, 'Well, I planted a bunch of trees.' And he says, 'I'm talking about personal.' What I'm thinking in my head is, 'Well, the truth is, Brian, we can't solve global warming because I f---ing changed light bulbs in my house. It's because of something collective'."

You know, despite the nasty campaign, I find it difficult to stay upset with McCain.  I can't really explain it.  Actually, it probably has everything to do with Sarah Palin.

Anyone else watching South Park?

edit: Ok, it started out funny, but I think it's veering into Libetardian county now...

South Park was awesome. One of the best ones I've seen, really lighthearted, no completely random weirdness or anything, and pretty funny parody of the Ocean's movie. I'm not sure what was pro liberal about it, other that McCain supporters thinking the sky is falling (which is accurate from everything I've seen lately) and that the fake Palin acting dumb on stage, also accurate. Great episode.

him and huck are my most likeable of US politicians.  yes, out of all politicians, save a few like the obvious obama, these two area really likeable to me.  I wish they were my uncle(s).

but not my father.

You know, I like Huck, too, although I'd be terrified if he were anywhere near office.  Maybe it's the same thing with McCain, but having a healthy sense of humor about yourself goes a long way towards making me think you're pretty cool, and both McCain and Huck have displayed this trait.

I actually think North Carolina was the most surprising.

This is a place that voted Jesse Helms in four times and then Elizabeth Dole.  I haven't forgotten the 1990 advertisement he ran against Harvey Gantt.
