Good news in Maryland and Maine, don't know about the other two.
Most likely, Obama is going to exploit the hell out of signing statements. In addition, if the Republicans play hardball again in all likelihood they will lose control of the house in 2014 giving Obama 2 years with a completely freehand.
Because however much the Republicans want to pretend they liked Clinton in comparison, they fecking hated him. They accused him & Hilary of murder FFS. That was the equivalent of the birther fiasco. I'm amazed Bill stood up at the DNC and said he'd never seen so much hate towards a President after what he'd been through.
Fox are still being brilliantly fair and balanced btw. I don't think anyone's talked about Obama positively for about 2 hours.
Obama has said that if the gridlock in Congress continues he'd look at ways to avoid them.
Romney really hasn't won any swing state except NC.
Romney's speech should just be him saying "y'all don't like me, blow me" and then dropping the mic.
First line of the Prez' victory speech..."Obama yo momma!"
Obama takes the lead in the popular vote and won't give it up now.
Sexual Chocolate!
That's exactly what I thought!
On the BBC at the moment they are discussing the idea of Obama offering Romney a job in his administration, Secretary of State for Business or the like. The gesture of unity being a win-win even if he refuses.
Kind of fitting that maths and science correctly predicted this election.
ad-mitt defeat!!!
Got to laugh at CNN.. they are claiming that there is no will on the democratic side to cut spending.
This is the dems have ran on cutting spending (as well as raising taxes) and off the record they all talk about wanting to cut entitlements.. theres even a video of Bill Clinton saying that Paul Ryan has some interesting ideas about one of the programs (think it was medicare) and to give him a call if he needs his influence.

Bill Clinton was the first president to visit N.Ireland, I was only 6 but I was brought along to Belfast City Hall where he made a speech. Can't remember anything about what he said but the atmosphere was amazing.
How? By like, not texting them back? Getting his mate to tell them he's not interested? Hiding behind the bike sheds after school?
On the off chance the Paul Ryan is reading this, I just want to say feck you, you smarmy little prick
Has Sonunu reacted yet? I'd expect something similar to Trump.
Believe me, there are ways, dude. You don't wanna know about it, believe me.
Where Republicans refuse to cooperate on things that I know are good for the American people, I will continue to look for ways to do it administratively and work around Congress.

Virginia called Blue. What a relief!
Karl Rove just said that Obama won the battle but lost the war. Okay!
Obama now winning the popular vote too.
My favourite Fox rationalisation so far has to be 'Obama could be the first president to be re-elected with fewer electoral votes than his first election'
both elections were utter blowouts.What a sad sad man. Now that Obama is winning the popular vote, they've stopped going on about the mandate. Heh Heh.
Maryland legalizes same-sex marriage.
Cool.
Cool.

Yeah...what a wanker that he couldn't better his numbers from 2008!
Un-fecking-believable from those bitter cnuts!
The shape of his head is freaking me the feck out!
The executive branch has found a way around the need for congressional approval to go to war, I'm sure they can find a work around for the rest of it.
Fear not, i'm sure he'll have a story about when he met a random person on the street [or Biden n a TV studio] who told him to go and do one.
10 minutes till concession!
Romney to speak at 12:55 eastern.
I predict three 'gosh', two 'gees' and a "goodness gracious."

The world is changing around the idiots. No....NOOO!! STOP CHANGING WORLD!! YOU'RE GOING TOO FAST!!
Thank feck. I need to go to sleep.
And "if you will".
Dare I stay awake till Obama's speech? 1:15ish Eastern?
Romney has called Obama to concede.
I think I might as well stay up for the two speeches.
