As long as we have an electorate with the determination of people like you Momoe; we will continue to see the good guys and gals win elections!

Well the state republican

Well the state republican officials are still attempting to curb voting on the part of the peasantry.

Comments right at this blog from folks like Momoe in Florida demonstrated that us peasants would stand in line to vote for hours in reaction to these attempts.

Now people like Rove most probably felt that the attempts at curbing the voting of the lower classes would work. And I think the peasantry really surprised these 'professionals'!

FOX News and other pundits

FOX News and other pundits from other networks (like Scarborough) were dissing Silver throughout 2012.

I think the strategy was that the electorate likes winners so it would be better to stress those polls that showed the repubs with an edge...

As November approached, Morris and Rove and others were just doing a sales job to get more contributions.

Others like Mitt were just believers in the power of positive thinking.

Maybe they were thinking they'd be able to manipulate the results, either through changing polling hours or through even more devious methods?

Didn't any of these guys read Nate Silver?

Until the end of Sept I thought Romney had too much money to lose . And wrote that here. .That Silver was reporting what had been not what would be.But 538 was imperturbable and after Oct 1 I started to remember the cliche that no one decides before Sept 1 or after Oct 1.

What puzzles me is how Romney, Rove et al could go into Election Day ignoring Silver's argument that the national polls were superficial and that for reliable information we should look at the state polls and they were showing :Four more years.

Thanks for the links BTW

Thanks for the Tina Turner

Thanks for the Tina Turner concert. She still got it at the age of 72. She lives in Switzerland and is a citizen there. She is considered a super star in Europe and packs them in with her concerts. I sure hope I still have her energy when I hit 70. She is on the cover of Germany's Vogue Magazine this month. She is also a hero the way she picked herself up after her split with the abusive Ike.

You are right. The GOP is dying from its own cancer.
