At least the guy knew what was up. | ||

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! | ||

He would have to blame his loss on aliens from Venus for us to remember it for longer than 3 weeks. Hoping he does now that you mention it. PLEASE ROMNEY, THINK OF THE VENUSIANS. | ||

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. | ||

Look at why Perry, Bachmann, and Santorum lost to Mitt. | ||

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. | ||
