OT's Official Election 2012 Thread- onwards to the future 2016

[QUOTE="SaudiFury"]

Seriously guys,

Nevada's senate majority leader is a black man.

the first openly gay senator.

women now make 22% of the Senate (the highest ever).

LGBT's are looking to win on ALL the amendments in their favor

more blue counties even in states where Romeny won big.

solid wins in Nevada, New Mexico, Colorado, and demographic changes in Arizona (the southwest is changing guys).

Republicans manage to look past the fact that they pushed a Mormon nominee (from a religious faction often despised)

A black man got re-elected to Presidency by good margins.

it's the demographics that are changing. more i look at the results, i seriously seriously think the Republicans are gonna need to rethink their strategies.

[QUOTE="TheWalkingGhost"] What a well thought out and logical response. :roll: Why point out where and why I was wrong when you can roll your eyes? Really is end all be all. theone86

The thought put into response need only to match that put into the original post. A:roll: is more than sufficient to respond to what you posted.

Don't make idiotic comments if you don't want to be treated like an idiot.

You said that because hispanic demographics are increasing in voting importance the country is screwed because they're automatically going to vote to let more hispanics in through any means necessary and will result in the destruction of the English language in America. That's not only one of the most idiotic statements I have ever heard, it's also patently racist. Stormfront's thataways, you fvcking moron.

Man OT is one mean spirited site. I guess some people need laid. Anyway...four more years of suckage....not that the option was any better. American loses when they elect politicians. Someday maybe the people will ask for more.:(LJS9502_basic

So Obama won? That was expected.

This, nothing of value has been lost.

so could anyone sum up everything for me? I know Obama won, but by how much? What is the current state? :Prilpas

I think Obama won by 2% in the popular vote, but there's still votes to be counted, so that might go up to 3%. He's probably going to win Florida, which would put him at 332. Furthermore, if he wins Florida, he'll have won every swing state with the exception of North Carolina, which was alot closer than people thought it would be.

So, in a nutshell, popular vote was close, electoral vote was not.

sounds like an all around win then

and everything stayed the same.

Weed was legalized in some states too Never thought I'd see it happen.SteverXIII

IDK, I feel we as a country have been on the track to weed legalization for some time now.

Honestly, I see weed becoming completely legal throughout the country in my lifetime. Might not even take more than a couple more elections honestly.

Yup, and then the generation that will be that old population will be supportive of weed legalization.

I don't know if people honestly think that all the pot smoking that was being done in the 60's and 70's just disappeared because it didn't. Plenty of middle age people still smoke or are at least still for legalizing weed.

On top of that younger generations seem to really support it as well and thanks to the internet people have been coming to learn of how much BS has been spread around by anti-marijuana campaigns.

With the tobacco industry not being the uber-powerhouse it used to be, that is also one less thing standing in the way of weed legalization.

Yeah, but Grey, you're forgetting that swing votes always break for the challenger and that Democrats were getting oversampled :P.

Probably too early to bring up but any expected cabinet changes in the Obama administration? I recall the idea of Clinton stepping down (presumably to take time off and build towards 2016) and Kerry taking over at state was floated earlier this year but that likely was just hearsay.

Thankfully Republicans kept control of the House. Else we'd be subjected to even more bad policy.

It won't even matter if there's more votes to be counted. Obama has already reached the 270 target first.

Like I said, I blame the liberal media for this travesty of an election. That and I think maybe the Democrats stuffed the ballot box. After all, voter ID laws are supposedly "unconstitutional".
