Thank God the Romney "era" is over.

At least he is gone unlike other Massachusetts losers who stuck around for years and years and years.

[Skintime]

Yeah. I am a wild hairy man. Raised in AK and lived most of my life (traveled a lot though) in the PacNW.

How did you become a skins fan???

[FanboyOf91]

So Puerto Rico wants to become a state.

I'm not sure if you'll ever see a more accurate analysis of how the election is going to play out. He has been calling this for weeks and he might go 50/50.

Not sure if serious...but... http://fivethirtyeight.blogs.nytimes.com/

Republicans lost their mind over his election prediction. Looks like he'll go 50 for 50.

Fox News just accused Obama of running up the score by also winning Virginia and likely Florida too.

I have a real soft side. I reacted to his smary, bs, say anything, and rich guy side until tonight, and now I feel compassion for him as a loyal American, a nice guy and good family man.

He is a former baseball SABRE guy who started weighing polling and has pretty much figured out how to predict every election all the time, it seems. He's been saying for a month that the race was not close. He seems to have predicted every single state. And Right-Wingers crucified him.

Glad I'm not alone in that.

I thought that was one of the most gracious and positive concession speeches I have heard. Classy.

He didn't take any shots at Obama, and he encouraged Republicans to compromise. It would be nice if our politicians could say things like that more often.

Gotcha. I really am not a politico at this stage of my life (different in the late 60's and 70's) for fun or hobby, so other than how it relates to my profession and as an informed citizen, I really do try to avoid any unnecessary dipping into it. The tailgate is about all of that I can take.
