CBS reports that Romney has conceded the election.

Edit: He made his concession phone call and will be speaking at around 1.

He's probably compiling his concession speech.


And why didn't he have this alrdy written out? Was he really so confident that he had no backup plan to adjust for the ONLY OTHER OUTCOME.


If you believe you're going to win, why waste time preparing for a loss?

I'm liking how they both accentuate the stereotypes.

I wonder what 24/7 news cycle be like when the KKK was relevant in the US, really after a point just because it's another side doesn't make it a valid argument.

It's not like anyone will ever or has ever remembered what a candidate said in a concession speech. He would have to blame his loss on aliens from Venus for us to remember it for longer than 3 weeks.

If it's true one wasn't written it's probably an election day superstition that he has. Like the President playing basketball on election days.

I'm sure his speechwriters had something sketched out.


Was listening to Presidential Historians on PBS and a speech is ALWAYS ready but only the speechwriter has it and no one sees it unless they need it.

Good thing just heard Romney called Obama to concede. PBS fuck yeah!

Bush won
McCain failed
Romney failed

So, relatively liberal Republican has hard time winning vs Democrat? Next time around, they might try more tea party style candidate?

History dummy, it's honestly the last impression he leaves the country because people rarely ever give a damn about them afterwards.

That's what Fox was saying.

On the other hand, I heavily disagree with it. Look at why Perry, Bachmann, and Santorum lost to Mitt.

Because true leaders will have a backup plan for the worst of times ffs. Especially when it's the only other outcome that could've happened. He just needs to get his head together, replace some words if he was naming states or other races and say GG WP. It shouldn't take all night.
