That obstructionist clown Bob Menendez almost got voted out but then the urban counties came in last and mirked Joe Kyrillos hard. | ||

Winning the popular vote by possibly 2-3 percentage points is a much more convincing win than all the B.S. pundits started spouting last night about him losing the popular vote and winning the EC (because they apparently missed California, Washington, and Oregon still counting their votes). | ||

Yeah, last night I was laughing my ass off at the Fox news people who kept harping on that. It's not like there's this big giant blob of a state on the west coast with a huge population that consistently votes democrat that they haven't yet factored into their counts.... | ||

The lower population areas got their counts done faster(many of which leaned republican). West cost states were counted later(many which lean democrat) The 'heatmap' they kept showing on fox(i know) was like 80% covered in red - Due to large land mass/low population republican areas and many democrat states(particularly the north-east coast) are small by land mass. Major Swing states were counted late/took a long time to 'call' compared to most others(Obama ended up winning all swing states except North Carolina). I don't think it was a land slide but it certainly wasn't close IMO. | ||

They got to entertain the republicans to keep watching even if they arn't going to win. and the dems to stay tuned to make sure that obama wins. | ||
