Dear Right Wing

I cant wait to get up in the morning and hear the excuses, the insults of other people, the silver linings, the good news spin, ect. I also cant wait to hear 4 more years of how bad the world is and that its all going to hell. I also wanna hear how it has nothing to do with race or birth certificates or religion. What I certainly hope I do not hear however is a simple admission that even as bad as the economy, jobs, and confidence is----the idea and the man they put forth is even a worse idea than what we already have.

As often as I see political postings...do any of you really think it matters? I mean this seriously and honestly, not in jest. Who among us does not think that corporations run America? That if Romney won he'd come in and change things overnight. He'd say the same thing Obama said..."$hit is messed up, and the last four years I've been undoing my predecessors' mistakes. So just give me another four years and then things will be better." Thanks for letting me rant

Not too much salt in the wound Vulchor. Even as a registered Democrat I would still vote republican in the future if they can get their heads out of their butt and stop focusing on things that are so far right and mean nothing to me personally. Give up the insistence on trickle down economics working without any regulation or oversight of financial markets, give up on protecting the uber wealthy and corporations, and focus on things that matter to the middle class. Stop calling a president a food-stamp president because he took office during a collapse after 8 years of republican policies, etc. And most important of all, and this is the most needed, DROP the religious right pandering! The fringe right, especially fringe religious christians etc, do not hold views that have any relevance to 3/4ths of the people in this country. Religion is going the way of the dodo, the sooner the GOP distances from the religious right the better for the party as a whole. The GOP needs a major shakeup, and I think in the future we will see a lot of changes from the party if they are to remain relevant.

Well. Your guy won. Fair and square. Now where do I go to get my free Obamaphone, healthcare and food stamps?

Maybe somewhere in your imagination. That's where I'd look.

MSNBC reports that Obama has received 50% of the 97% of votes that are in. That's 48.5% of the popular vote by my math. That's not victory, that's just not losing. No one won last night, not the president, and not the people he'll allege to represent. Number reversed, my opinion would have been no different.

I go on tangents and sometimes lose sight of the big picture. Dlo I think Obama is a better choice than Mitt...yes, I do. HOWEVER, I think you are totally correct. The country is run by wide ranging economic influences from every side of the political spectrum who only care about furthering their financial gain----not true political measures. See the Bildebergers and other organizations as proof of this. So to answer your question...No, I do not think this will be a big difference for the country, but sadly here we have to take our joy in small victories.

Didn't something similar pass in WA as well - I know it was a ballot issue, not sure what the specifics were though.

...and I've got a bunch of good friends in both states. Met my bride of 37 years in Steamboat Springs, and we lived in Bellingham, WA for 20 years. I feel a vacation coming on.

Thanks for doing that Ken. It actually made me feel less critical of the electoral system. I appreciate that!

You can only count votes cast, not those that weren't cast and Obama won 50% to 48%, a number that is likely to rise if they ever get a final total for Florida. It's a higher percentage than President Bush and Al Gore got in 2000. It's nearly as high as the percentage Bush got in 2004. But here's the difference: When Clinton and Bush were elected, the economy was still growing and unemployment was low. The fact that Obama won with unemployment so high and an economy struggling to improve momentum is unprecedented in American history, a tribute to his ability to capture the loyalty of his supporters, regardless of whether you like him or hate him.
