If this is correct, then Obama has 332 electoral votes. Wow.

Yes, Obama has won Florida, and this makes me very sad. I really thought that Romney would have won that State.

If I was with the Fox Advocacy Group, I would start making up excuses for this event. Hey, how about, "A group of cigar rolling Cubans stole the chads". For proof of this I would cite the the main question of the lips of the Florida residents at the Ruth Horowitz Retirement Community, "So where's the chads already". I would then talk about it on the Benighted Four, so it could be reported as an actual event on Fox News the following day.

Virginia, PA, Ohio, Colorado, Nevada and now Florida for Obama?

What a disaster Romney turned out to be. The Republican campaign managers and pollsters that didn't see this coming should be ridden out of town on a rail.

But they'll probably all be back in four years as if this never happened.

I wonder if Sheldon Adelson feels he got an adequate return on investment for his 60 million?

If Bain Capital bought American Crossroads, I think Karl Rove would be out of a job.

That being said, no matter which side you are on, I think it's a tragedy that all of these advertising dollars (from both sides) are spent on manipulating voters, not educating them.

Tragic, indeed!

Well, it didn't work for Romney. So do they start trying something different, or do they double-down?

Is it possible that the problem wasn't the candidate, but the message?

And is it possible that the reality isn't quite so simple as "makers versus takers"?

Or that the racist democrats successfully painted Romney a rich white guy who could not give two hoots about women and minorities?

Considering that many of those 47% "takers" are senior citizens on SSI and Medicare who probably voted for Romney...no it's not quite that simple. What is simple is that white people are shrinking as a percentage of the population and if the Republicans continue to antagonize minorities they're going to lose minority voters 80-20 every time.
