Face it, Fox news is not a real news channel, it's made to make conservatives happy. | ||

He'll concede and make a gracious concession speech when he's ready. It's been like 7 years of constant campaigning for him. Seriously. He's been holding house rallies and such since 2005 - he hasn't had a real job since then. He was just a professional campaigner - no office, no job, just a campaign. Has to be crushing. | ||

Not really, even Obama doesn't support gay marriage for "personal reasons," but supports civil unions, which is a cheap ploy really. Yet this fact does not deter people who are for gay marriage to vote against him. Possibly because there's more to running a country than one's opinion on gay marriage, and secondly because his opponent is also against gay marriage. So... Guess what we're not getting on a national level for a while. | ||

Dick Morris spent the last two months building an entire house of cards about polls being systematically biased and 538's polling aggregator being completely useless because Silver was "arbitrarily" assigning weights to the polls. | ||

I think he's the dumbass that adamantly predicted that Romney would win about 330 EVs. | ||
