ES's Offical 11/6/2012 Election Results Thread (DISCUSS THE RESULTS HERE)

Cali was far different in 1980, 84 and 88 demographically.

You'll see it happen in Texas by the end of the decade

I think at the end of the day being unable to win your home state is too quickly dismissed.

@granthpaulsen: RT @daveweigel: Romney-Ryan becomes first presidential ticket to lose both candidates' home states since McGovern-Shriver, 1972.

[Kilmer17]

Brace yourselves for complete armegeddon in our Govt.

Yup. It is why I am here in TX.

I consider Utah more of a homestate for Romney then MA

[twa]

And Reagan? How'd he do in California, etc

California is beyond my understanding

don't bet on it SHF, we play a different game here

I could see it.

Especially if Fiscal Cliff triggers another recession.

The only race that is irritating to me is Elizabeth Warren winning in MA. She is a liar and a fraud.

If Scott Brown cant win in the NE, then the GOP should fold up their tents and spend all of there energy and money elsewhere. It's obvious the people in NE are more concerned with the letter in front of the candidate than anything else.

You gotta figure the auto bail out will give Obama Ohio if nothing else.

Maybe if "Jeeps to China" had been played later, instead of being refuted almost instantly.

[zoony]

One of the pundits on fox said earlier that he's not surprised that Obama did so well with the woman vote, because "that has been a focus for the dems"

That's the kind of thought process that will keep republicans out of the white house for years to come. Unbelievable that they are that dumb

Yep. Tonights results will give the GOP absolutely no avenue to agree with Obama on anything.

We get the Govt we deserve......

Don't know a thing about either, but you had to assume a Rep in Ted Kennedy's old seat would be short lived, right?

[Yusuf06]

Romney is getting raped in Ohio though.

But is it a LEGITIMATE rape though?

I love that the GOP just lost Lugar's seat. That's what you get for kicking a respected moderate out of office and putting an idjit fringer on the ballot.

I'm sure the Dems are drafting a thank-you note to the Tea Party right about now.

Because he was progressive republican. Dude passed universal health care

He was until he shook the Etch-A-Sketch for the primaries and then again for the general and then shook it again later in the general to be seen as a moderate again.

Brown loses MA. Goes to show nobody is really interested in bipartisan anything.

Seriously? According to the talking heads all he needed was ~20% of Dems to pull it off. Do you think maybe the consideration of how his fellow Grand Oligarch's Party members have acted played a part in his not reaching that very high threshold? I guess the big picture doesn't count in the calculation regarding bipartisanship, huh?
