Judgement Day

Fox are projecting Virginia, which would mean California would push him over 270

[Rich Pullen]

...and he will take California. I was expecting the Republicans to win more than they have I must say.

[Rich Pullen]

and that is that. He's got it with 297 thus far.

[Rich Pullen]

Hahahaha Gore Vidal was ace.

I take little to no interest in this.

But what I do enjoy is the thought of tens/hundreds of thousands of ignorants seething because they think that their new president is an Arabic Muslim Terrorist.

Well done Obama.

He's none of them...He's just a fucking Tony Blair clone and we all know what a cock wobbling cunt, of the highest order, he turned out to be...we're all going to hell in a handcart...

Yes. I personally felt much safer knowing the Free World was being run by a handful of bible bashing ultra conservatives, with a feeble minded cunt who could barely manage a coherent sentence, let alone make balanced, intelligent descisions, as their figure head.

Republicans in charge = Wars in two countries, a fucked up economy and a Worldwide reccession.

While all the above may not be solely attributable to them, lets see what a Democrat can do.

Thank fuck Mr Dead and his nazi female sidekick never got the vote.........

The one thing that annoys me about Osama winning is the Oprah factor, this should not have been a race issue but with her backing Osama publically she made it one (especially as she's never publically backed a presidential candidate before.

I expect Chip McCain will be shipped to the nearest old folks home tout suite, it's a case of slippers, keeping warm and healthy evening suppers for him, whilst his wife files for divorce and finds herself a new man.

Interesting point about the hockey mum, she now has to go back to Capital Hill to work with her colleagues, or as she and McCain have called them for the last couple of months the "old boy network", doubt she'll ever get near the top again - which isn't a bad thing.

Yee ha, I'm glad it's over, now for the really interesting stuff, what is Osama and Joe Bi(n la)den going to do come January.

I'm delighted.  I can remember coming down to breakfast four years ago today to learn that America had given Bush another 4 years, and couldn't quite believe it (even though Kerry was a poor candidate).  Watching the results roll in at 3am this morning (feeding Ardiles Jnr) was an all together different experience.

More than anything, it's relief.  When the history books are written, I'm quite sure the period from 2000 to 2008 will be seen as a dark period for the US.  Bush was over-promoted in my view, and history will not be kind to him.

I've just got up after going to bed after Obama's victory speech.

Highlight of the evening was definately Neoconservative John Bolton on the BBC arguing everything whether it had any relevance to the conversation.

Now the U.S. and indeed the world must wait and see. For the record, I don't see Obama as a Blair type character at all - it's important that the Bush reign of terror can wind down in full without another republican taking the baton.

[flammableBen]

Yeah sorry I chipped off a bit early Rich. Tiredness got the better of me.

Bolton was fucking hilarious.

I don't get the Obama = Blair thing either.

[my-velocity]

I think he'll make a massive difference eventually, but at the moment he's been left with so much shite like the war, recession etc that he needs to be really spot on with his decision making.

[ibelieveinmrreeves]

I fell asleep at 10 o'clock after having planned to saty up for this. Whoops. I'm sure I dreamt Obama getting elected though and checked at about 5am and it was true. Nice.

For anyone half interested it was over by about 1am - certainly when Ohio went democrat... My intent was to stay up for the speeches.

You only need to look at who posted it...
