AdLib 3 days ago
Waiting for the first results…
AdLib 3 days ago
trump in a mudslide!
Harleigh
3 days ago
Hey Harleigh! You said it!
AdLib 3 days ago
Trump under a landslide!
AdLib 3 days ago
Still wearing my “I Voted” sticker.
AdLib 3 days ago
hopefully and I hope faux has a total meltdown agin tonite.
Harleigh
3 days ago
Who gets to play the role of Karl Rove and insist Hillary didn’t win?
AdLib 3 days ago
Trump?
AdLib 3 days ago
If Hillary wins FL, it’s pretty much over.
AdLib 3 days ago
He will do it I’m certain. It would be a yyyuuugggeee surprise to me if he doesn’t
Harleigh
3 days ago
Do you think he really will refuse to accept his loss?
AdLib 3 days ago
Will Trump celebrate his loss with a big glass of whine?
AdLib 3 days ago
floriduh has basically 3 big dem areas Miami, Ft lauderdale and Orlando that has mostly dem voters and huge dense populations. That had a very heavy early vote as well.
Harleigh
3 days ago
Hey FD!
AdLib 3 days ago
What’s up, peeps?
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
hey FD
Harleigh
3 days ago
Hey Harleigh.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Harleigh – That sure bodes well for Hillary! Especially the huge Latino vote coming out!
AdLib 3 days ago
These are tense hours.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
both black and hispanic up over 120% from 2012.
Harleigh
3 days ago
Think we’ll know by late tonight?
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
FD – True but I’m confident she’ll win relatively early.
AdLib 3 days ago
too bad that this is Groundhog day and the loop ends at 7PM eastern so we will never know!
Harleigh
3 days ago
NOOO!!!
AdLib 3 days ago
LOLOLOLOL
Harleigh
3 days ago
That’s purgatory, Harleigh.
AdLib 3 days ago
Well, if the Orange molester wins, I’ll be very surprised. And extremely disappointed in my country.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Aaaaaccck!
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
FD – Won’t happen. He just doesn’t have the numbers.
AdLib 3 days ago
I can’t see him winning.
Harleigh
3 days ago
Well, i voted straight dem ticket, this morning.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
I vote every election by mail and always straight dem
Harleigh
3 days ago
All kinds of questionable stats on MSNBC now. They have so few exit polling results yet report them like they’re comprehensive.
AdLib 3 days ago
Harleigh – Same here. Either he’s close or loses big. He doesn’t win.
AdLib 3 days ago
MSNBC has definitely changed, for the worse, in the last year and a half or so.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Me too, FD. And if a Trump type was a Dem, I’d have no problem voting against him. The difference between Dems and Repubs.
AdLib 3 days ago
i used to love MSNBC with Ed and Keith. Can’t stand Todd or mathews.
Harleigh
3 days ago
FD – It’s like 75% Repub shills as guests now, Dems and Progressives are rare.
AdLib 3 days ago
Me neither Harleigh. I do like Chris Hayes, Rachel, Lawrence O’Donnell and Joy Reid. They’re the only ones worth watching. Oh, and Katy Tur! She’s a class act.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
I watched 10 minutes of them tonite and Kornyacki making up parsed shit exit numbers. meaningless
Harleigh
3 days ago
Yeah, it seems they’ve adopted the “Fair and Balanced,” shyte that FOX supposedly does.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Did you notice how Steve Kornholio’s map is the only one at MSNBC that shows Hillary below 270? Just to keep Dems on edge and watching! He’s slime.
AdLib 3 days ago
Kornaki drives me nuts. He talks fast and non-stop. I just want to yell SHUT THE FUCK UP!
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
even racheal that I used to love now phrases her 1 minute questions 4 ways from the middle for 5 minutes like that shithead mathews.
Harleigh
3 days ago
Ratings till the end!
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Ad has a great name for him…Dime a Dance Matthews. It’s perfect.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
FD – He talks quickly because he’s trying to inject BS into viewers without interruption.
AdLib 3 days ago
He’s quite effective. I always mute him.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Harleigh – Agreed, Rachel became so acidic and spiteful towards Bernie, it was just mean spirited. She’s a mainstreamer now.
AdLib 3 days ago
I can’t wait to see Kellyann be interviewd after Trump loses. Will she still be lying?
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
I still like Rachel. She hasn’t completely gone mainstream. She’s close though.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
well kellyanne will tell us how it was rigged and MSM lies. you both know thta! LOL
Harleigh
3 days ago
True! Trump can do nothing else and Kelly will suck up to him, at least until (and if) Trump pays her.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
I’m annoyed too of all the cuddliness hosts have with Conway. You can’t spell Conway without Con.
AdLib 3 days ago
Exactly. She’s a walking lie machine.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
anybody that has not been paid by trump is getting stiffed. guaranteed.
Harleigh
3 days ago
And Trump will sue everyone he has paid.
AdLib 3 days ago
That would not surprise me.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Fox News is having depressed “sour grapes” whiners talk about how even if Hillary wins, she has too much baggage to ever govern. Oh, and…”WAHHH!”
AdLib 3 days ago
If she got stiffed, I would find that quite humerous.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
The Con-Way!
AdLib 3 days ago
Let’s hope the dems take back the senate.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
FD – I’m optimistic about that, especially with the surge of Latino voters.
AdLib 3 days ago
Yeah, me too. Then we can tell old turtle face to take a flying leap!
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
I often wonder if some of the paid shills really believe the shit they have to spew like Dana Perino for Bush or Megyn Kelly for Ailes. Both are bright enough to know it’s bullshit but the paycheck is for performing the masters way.
Harleigh
3 days ago
FD – BTW, you know you can log into KT by not putting a space between the names? That’s the way you originally set it up.
AdLib 3 days ago
Yeah, I tried that a couple of times and had no success. I’ll try again, maybe tomorrow. This was probably 4 days ago or more.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Harleigh – They are the definition of having sold one’s soul. They have no principles, money is all they have.
AdLib 3 days ago
That’s how I feel too AD
Harleigh
3 days ago
it’s all about their personal careers, the hell with ethics and integrity.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
FD – I logged in as a test with no problem. The failed logins all had the names seperated with a space, just run the names together and you’re cool.
AdLib 3 days ago
FD – They are evil zombies, no conscience, they’re just mindless creatures following their simple motivations.
AdLib 3 days ago
You mean no space between Killgore and Trout?
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Did you see any of the videos in my post today? Funny stuff last night from all around the dial!
AdLib 3 days ago
I’ve tried it both ways. Again though, that was last week.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Yep, it needs to be: KillgoreTrout
AdLib 3 days ago
I love when they get punked reading their teleprompters. remember that jet that landed short and a couple of kids fell out of the back of the plane? LOL
Harleigh
3 days ago
The VR post?
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
That’s how you set it up originally and it’s always been. Don’t forget, I set a temp password. It’s in my email to you.
AdLib 3 days ago
Wait, I’ll post them here too…
AdLib 3 days ago
Yeah, I’ll do it tomorrow.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Here’s one:
AdLib 3 days ago
You don’t like Fuzzy? LOL!
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
I like Fuzzy but also miss Killgore.
AdLib 3 days ago
Ah so!
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Wait, here it is again, embedded in the chat window:
AdLib 3 days ago
While we’re waiting…here’s number two video:
AdLib 3 days ago
And here’s number 3:
AdLib 3 days ago
I saw the Sam Bee video. Very good, as always. She’s one of the best late night has to offer now.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
FD – I think she made the best argument for Hillary as a person, better than anyone else the whole season.
AdLib 3 days ago
Yeah, me too. she wasn’t too fond of Bill though. Can’t blame her really.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Sam wasn’t fond of Bill? Since she’s a feminist, that’s not hard to understand.
AdLib 3 days ago
No, it’s not.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Steve Kornholio is frothing again.
AdLib 3 days ago
Yeah, I got him on mute!
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Blab-a-blab-a-blab! Well said, Kornholio!
AdLib 3 days ago
poll closings right now!
AdLib 3 days ago
How about out west?
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
MSNBC is sucking today. More so than usual.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Projections…GA, VA too close to call. Trump wins IN of course.
AdLib 3 days ago
7pm local time across the whole great land of freedumbs…. lol
Harleigh
3 days ago
Trump wins KY too. Hillary wins VT.
AdLib 3 days ago
Coal miners.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
SC – Too early to call.
AdLib 3 days ago
FD – And uneducated whites.
AdLib 3 days ago
Billhillys.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Wouldn’t it be too cool if Hillary could win GA?
AdLib 3 days ago
ga in 2020 maybe
Harleigh
3 days ago
FD – Unfortunately not Bill&Hillys.
AdLib 3 days ago
That would be quite telling, concerning the GOP’s rep.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Harleigh, yep, you’re probably right but I can still dream tonight!
AdLib 3 days ago
Georgia is considerably more progressive than it was a decade or so ago.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Kornaki must drink Red Bull all day. The guy is super hyper.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
TX will be interesting too. see how close the races are in baggertopia
Harleigh
3 days ago
Yes, GA is ready to flip, more moderate and Progressive. In 4 years, I can see it going convincingly Dem.
AdLib 3 days ago
Kornholio sniffs whatever Trump sniffs during debates.
AdLib 3 days ago
This year would be great. Could happen.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
I think TX will be Repub this year but the margin could be single digits.
AdLib 3 days ago
bbl, dinnertime
Harleigh
3 days ago
What’s for dinner?
AdLib 3 days ago
dogs, baked beans and mac n cheese. a real murikkkan meal. lol
Harleigh
3 days ago
God Bless American food!
AdLib 3 days ago
What? No apple pie?
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
And the fried Twinkie!
AdLib 3 days ago
i’ll look
Harleigh
3 days ago
Dinner sounds good right now. I’ll be back later.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Think I’ll fry me up a stick of butter right about now!
AdLib 3 days ago
Whahappen???
AdLib 3 days ago
Hope we have FL decisively for Hillary in a couple of hours. Pretty confident we will see that.
AdLib 3 days ago
Hillary in the lead in FL with 30% of the vote in.
AdLib 3 days ago
Hey Funk!
AdLib 3 days ago
Hi! Florida and Virginia looking good! NH is a little disappointing
funksands
3 days ago
Yep! If she wins FL, NH doesn’t matter…except for the Senate seat.
AdLib 3 days ago
Wow, Trump wins WV. Big surprise!
AdLib 3 days ago
Yep, if Florida goes, this thing is cooked.
funksands
3 days ago
That’s what I’m happy about right now. It could be all over for Trump and a win for Hillary relatively early.
AdLib 3 days ago
That would make my panic-stricken wife a little calmer for sure
funksands
3 days ago
The vote seems to be coming in pretty fast in FL.
AdLib 3 days ago
Trump’s barely ahead of Hillary with big red areas coming in and a lot of blue yet to come in. I think she’s in very good shape in FL.
AdLib 3 days ago
Do they throw all of the early votes in after poll closure?
funksands
3 days ago
There was a shooting at an LA polling station did you hear about that?
funksands
3 days ago
Don’t know, CNN said they’ve already put in the early votes yet they show big Dem counties not in yet. Probably depends on the county.
AdLib 3 days ago
Yes, heard about it, Azusa is a real outlying area, not very close to LA itself.
AdLib 3 days ago
Yeah she’s close in Virginia too with zero urban areas reporting
funksands
3 days ago
Heavily armed shooter…sounds like a lunatic.
AdLib 3 days ago
Wonder why rural votes are seeming to come in first? Just to tease Trump?
AdLib 3 days ago
They always do. Easier to count!
funksands
3 days ago
CNN is frothing at Trump being ahead early in various states Hillary is expected to win. Froth away Wolfie.
AdLib 3 days ago
She’s running 7 points ahead of 2012 Obama in Palm Beach County
funksands
3 days ago
That’s very encouraging! And it sure seems that a lot of Trump areas are in already.
AdLib 3 days ago
In Duval County, a Repub county, Hillary is ahead. FL is looking very good.
AdLib 3 days ago
Wolf still frothing…or is that his beard?
AdLib 3 days ago
I’ve stopped watching CNN. Can barely stand to watch MSNBC. Enjoying SkyNews coverage
funksands
3 days ago
New Hampshire looking good!
funksands
3 days ago
I’ve got Directv, they have a special 4-screen page with CNN, MSNBC, Fox and BBC News so flipping between them.
AdLib 3 days ago
What’s NH now?
AdLib 3 days ago
Don’t see a lot of votes in yet for NH.
AdLib 3 days ago
Southern NH just came in and Hillary is up. That’s good
funksands
3 days ago
Sorry about harping on this but every 5 minutes, CNN has a “Key Race Alert” with the FL vote flopping back and forth. For people sho like being jerked aroound, CNN is Jerk Central.
AdLib 3 days ago
60% in FL and Hillary up by 2%.
AdLib 3 days ago
Trump wins SC. Again, no surprise.
AdLib 3 days ago
ha!
funksands
3 days ago
71% in FL and Hillary building lead!
AdLib 3 days ago
I wouldn’t mind getting to bed early…unless I’m going to stay up to see Trump refuse to concede.
AdLib 3 days ago
7 minutes until the next polls close!
AdLib 3 days ago
Hillary up in FL and NC!
AdLib 3 days ago
72% in FL, Hillary up 2.6%
AdLib 3 days ago
That would be nice. I’m really much more concerned about the Senate. I think we’re going to end up at 50/50 Supreme Court at stake!
funksands
3 days ago
Did you hear about the two douchebags in WA State that are Dem Electors that will refuse to pledge their delegates? Blowback from overwhelming Bernie support in the state
funksands
3 days ago
I’m concerned too!
AdLib 3 days ago
Ah, they just answered the Florida question. All those votes were the early votes
funksands
3 days ago
hey Ad, Funk, are we there yet??????
pinkpantheroz
3 days ago
I heard of one elector saying that, now there are two? Someone needs to take a sack of manure to their heads.
AdLib 3 days ago
Yep, two. Assholes
funksands
3 days ago
Hey PPO! We’re almost there! Hillary in the lead in OH!!!
AdLib 3 days ago
good news. My TV is in another room, so I cant type here and watch at the same time. Wall to wall coverage here, btw
pinkpantheroz
3 days ago
Uh oh…things are now swinging away from Trump to Hillary! Is Trump snorting something already?
AdLib 3 days ago
florida is too close to call, i hear
pinkpantheroz
3 days ago
Heh! I’ve got 4 screens going!
AdLib 3 days ago
sheer Luxureh! Ah’ve just got one tiny tube!
pinkpantheroz
3 days ago
Land of Lincoln!
funksands
3 days ago
Ah, I feel better now.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Hillary wins IL, NJ, MA and MD. No surprises but good.
AdLib 3 days ago
Penn in yet?
pinkpantheroz
3 days ago
PPO – I’m watching in a mirror reflecting my neighbor’s tv!
AdLib 3 days ago
you win!
pinkpantheroz
3 days ago
Trump wins OK, TN and MS. Shocked?
AdLib 3 days ago
Nope.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Hi, FD
pinkpantheroz
3 days ago
Hey P! How goes it?
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
RI, DE, DC all for Hillary (of course).
AdLib 3 days ago
trying to keep up with what’s happening. good coverage here, but all talk and no displays
pinkpantheroz
3 days ago
NY Times being much much more cautious about the electoral calls
funksands
3 days ago
come on Ohio. You went for Obama twice!
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
back shortly. need to catch up on states just closed
pinkpantheroz
3 days ago
Trump needs NC. Too early to call.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
I think FL is showing that Latinos are making a big difference right now.
AdLib 3 days ago
TAMMY DUCKWORTH WINS!!!
AdLib 3 days ago
Tammy Duckworth winning.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Hassan way ahead of Ayotte!
funksands
3 days ago
4 Senate wins to go!
AdLib 3 days ago
Including NV that is.
AdLib 3 days ago
Ross ahead of Burr early
funksands
3 days ago
Burr really needs to lose.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Nevada is going D
funksands
3 days ago
Funk – That’s great news! I know it’s early but better to be ahead!
AdLib 3 days ago
Indiana is disappointing. Bayh ran a terrible campaign
funksands
3 days ago
Funk – I think you’re right. That would mean only 3 other seats needed.
AdLib 3 days ago
Hey, it’s Indiana. Redneck central.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Hillary ahead by 8% in NC.
AdLib 3 days ago
Woo Hoo! Yeah!
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Damn Kornaki is annoying!
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Huge report from Raleigh, that’s why. That lead is going to shrink
funksands
3 days ago
Funk – Bayh is a pretty messed up Dem, blue dog. Not surprised he was so compromised in his race but disappointed.
AdLib 3 days ago
Hillary winning white college educated in PA. They’re usually Repubs.
AdLib 3 days ago
I’ll take an 80% voting record Blue Dog over a GOP’er any day
funksands
3 days ago
The lead in NH is going to shrink too. But its really big
funksands
3 days ago
Lots more blue votes in FL with Hillary ahead.
AdLib 3 days ago
Who’s leading NH?
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Leave it to LA to make the Church of Scientology a polling place…
funksands
3 days ago
Oh no. Tweety is philosophizing.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Clinton, Fuzzy by 15%
funksands
3 days ago
Hillary’s ahead by a bunch but still early.
AdLib 3 days ago
In NH.
AdLib 3 days ago
Yeah! Go NH! Thanks funk!
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Hillary winning by big margins in Dem counties in FL and swing counties.
AdLib 3 days ago
Come on OHIO!
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Hassan outperforming Clinton in NH. That’s a good sign
funksands
3 days ago
Funk – We have to get some usefulness from Scientology buildings.
AdLib 3 days ago
Funk ?
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Funk – That’s fantastic news!
AdLib 3 days ago
Hillary still ahead in OH!
AdLib 3 days ago
Yeah Tweety, you also said Trump won the last two debates! Moron!
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
FD – You said it!
AdLib 3 days ago
neck and neck in TX, Fer cryin’ out loud!
pinkpantheroz
3 days ago
PPO – So funny!
AdLib 3 days ago
Aus tracker gives it 68-48 clinton so far
pinkpantheroz
3 days ago
Hillary is ahead with A LOT of Dem votes not in yet.
AdLib 3 days ago
In FL.
AdLib 3 days ago
Fla is looking good, but don’t want to put the hex on it!
pinkpantheroz
3 days ago
I think FL is looking very good for Hillary.
AdLib 3 days ago
Agreed PPO but looking good!
AdLib 3 days ago
i’m still flabbergasted that this race is still close. After all Trump has said and done. Unbelievable.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
FD – I don’t think it’s so close, that’s just how it looks at this moment. Hillary leading in OH? She’s overperforming so far.
AdLib 3 days ago
Hillary’s leading in NC, FL, VA and OH. Pretty good!
AdLib 3 days ago
It’s still way closer than it should be.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
factoring in the West coast definites, Aussie TV has it 182-111 HRC
pinkpantheroz
3 days ago
lot of rubio/clinton voters
funksands
3 days ago
Watch out for the Fla Panhandle – different crowd there.
pinkpantheroz
3 days ago
PPO – Some of panhandle already in but most of Palm County not in…and Hillary leading.
AdLib 3 days ago
Funk, yep, that weasel Rubio wins on name alone. He’s worthless.
AdLib 3 days ago
Hillary overperforming in NC.
AdLib 3 days ago
Hillary ahead by 7 in OH!
AdLib 3 days ago
Get ready for a big shift in Virginia shortly. Nearly all of the rural vote in, only about 10-15% of the urban vote in
funksands
3 days ago
no such thing as overperforming, Ad. Just as long as she wins it!
pinkpantheroz
3 days ago
Funk – Great update on VA! Thanks!
AdLib 3 days ago
Evan Bayhs the farm.
AdLib 3 days ago
Hillary on target in NH with ’08 Obama, and ahead of ’12 Obama
funksands
3 days ago
Good news Funk, same in NC and FL so far.
AdLib 3 days ago
Behind both Obama votes in Ohio as expected
funksands
3 days ago
Hassan ahead by 13%?
AdLib 3 days ago
Ross ahead of Burr.
AdLib 3 days ago
Florida looking better when you look deeper. Only about half of the urban blue counties have reported
funksands
3 days ago
Palm Beach county for example only has 1/4 of their precincts reporting.
funksands
3 days ago
91% in FL with Trump barely ahead. Sure hope that 9% is Hillary heavy voting.
AdLib 3 days ago
It is
funksands
3 days ago
Nice!
AdLib 3 days ago
Funk, you’re keeping my blood pressure down. Half of the vote in TX…Hillary ahead!!!
AdLib 3 days ago
Their estimate on MSNBC is just that. NYTimes is using reported results. Only about 64% in
funksands
3 days ago
Funk – In FL 64% IS IN?
AdLib 3 days ago
Sorry about the caps, accidental.
AdLib 3 days ago
Yes
funksands
3 days ago
68 now. MSNBC using exit polling and early voting to estimate how much of the total vote is in. They’re a bit high
funksands
3 days ago
CNN, Fox and BBC also using the same estimates, all show 92% in.
AdLib 3 days ago
Got it.
AdLib 3 days ago
NYTimes showing the same number of votes, but a lower % reporting
funksands
3 days ago
Very interesting Funk! Such a discrepency is messed up.
AdLib 3 days ago
What’s interesting though is that there was only 8.4 million votes in Florida in 2012 and we’re almost there. maybe the times is wrong
funksands
3 days ago
Funk – Right now they’re the outlier.
AdLib 3 days ago
MSNBC talking about the lagging urban vote in Florida
funksands
3 days ago
Half of Palm still out, much of Broward still out.
AdLib 3 days ago
Gonna be close!
funksands
3 days ago
It is close!
AdLib 3 days ago
Mch closer than it ever should be.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Yep, this could be a lot later night than I had planned!
AdLib 3 days ago
Trump has a long uphill battle tonight anyway.
AdLib 3 days ago
FL is stuck at 92%!
AdLib 3 days ago
Something is wrong, CNN keeps showing Trump gaining but still shows 91% of the vote. SOmething’s messed up.
AdLib 3 days ago
Cnn generally screws everything up. I wouldn’t trust them.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
i’m not too sure about MSNBC either.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
MSNBC has the same bad numbers. Both keep saying though that lots of votes from the Dem counties are still out. They’re saying 1 million votes still not counted.
AdLib 3 days ago
Yeah, that’s a bit of hope. I expect things to go better for Hillary the later it gets.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
FD – Agreed, the big cities are always lagging and Dem votes are in the cities.
AdLib 3 days ago
Yeah, most repub votes do come from the more rural areas. Ohio still looks good. A strange mix of both here.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
FD – That would be pretty unexpected.
AdLib 3 days ago
What would?
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Hillary winning OH. Polls have showed it going for Trump for a long time.
AdLib 3 days ago
No she’s ahead in Ohio.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Hillary ahead in NH so far.
AdLib 3 days ago
Hillary ahead now in Miss? Wow.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Missouri
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
This is the craziest election I can remember, the back and forth!
AdLib 3 days ago
I don’t know why they keep comparing this to Rmoney in 2012?
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
They have to babble about something while they wait for numbers to come in.
AdLib 3 days ago
Tweety is good at babbling.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
And he’ll babble about all kinds of conflicting things.
AdLib 3 days ago
California is going big for Hillary I think.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Yep but that’s in the bag. We need NV and hold onto NC and VA.
AdLib 3 days ago
I think we may have Nevada. A big Hispanic vote there.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
FD – But we were supposed to have that in FL and look how close it is.
AdLib 3 days ago
Yeah but they’re Cuban, and out west they’re mostly Mexican, and they really hate Trump.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
FD – A lot of Puerto Ricans outnumbering Cubans though and they’re Dem leaning.
AdLib 3 days ago
Damn, gramps McCain wins again. He really needs to spend more time with the family, so to speak.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
McCain wins, will be a senator now until he’s 92!
AdLib 3 days ago
But the Mexicans really, really hate Trump!
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Yep but Hillary has to hold onto some of these other states in the east.
AdLib 3 days ago
Absolutely.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
What concerns me is that Hillary isn’t locking up the blue states she’s supposed to win like Trump is locking up the red states he’s supposed to win.
AdLib 3 days ago
It’s early still.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Oh shit, Trump tied with Hillary in NC.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
But the largest Dem county isn’t counting any of today’s vote yet.

AdLib 3 days ago

funksands

I’m getting worried.
glenn

Me too, glenn. But we have to be patient, the urban vote is almost always last so in close elections, the Dem will be down until the end.
AdLib 3 days ago
Damn, I wanted a big landslide. It would have been if so many Americans weren’t so damned stupid.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
FD – Yep, me too. But even if she loses FL, as long as she keeps VA, she can be okay. VA is actually looking okay, tied but lots of Dem votes out.
AdLib 3 days ago
It’s difficult to be patient when I see trump with this big a lead. Could the pollsters be this wrong?
glenn
3 days ago
There are 19 million first time voters this year. That could explain the crazy numbers.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
glenn – Hillary only had a 1%-2% lead so if Trump was to win by 1%, that’s in the margin of error.
AdLib 3 days ago
In FL that is.
AdLib 3 days ago
I wonder if there is a stealth vote against having a woman President?
AdLib 3 days ago
This does make one wonder. I don’t really think so, though. A lot of stupid women are voting for Trump.
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
But I wonder if there is still a hidden prejudice for that reason.
AdLib 3 days ago
Ad, I expect there is. Not everyone is ready for that believe it or not
funksands
3 days ago
That’s one of those rhetoricals, right?
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Yeah, but even against a total doosh like Trump?
Fuzzy Dunlop
3 days ago
Well, it is going to be a long night so best not to jump to conclusions.
AdLib 3 days ago
Now the pundits are just blathering, no new numbers. What’s taking sotuhern FL so long to come in?
AdLib 3 days ago
I agree about Fl, but every projection I saw said that Hillary had about a 90 percent chance to win. This is getting scary!

Agreed glenn, this isn’t the way things were supposed to be. But Hillary has multiple paths to win.
AdLib 3 days ago
Kander? Really? Cool!
AdLib 3 days ago
Fuzzy, I am trying not to panic. I cannot believe trump is doing so well.
glenn

Yep, outperforming Clinton by 105
funksands

10%
funksands

Me neither glenn. I guess RW media is more effective than I thought.
Fuzzy Dunlop

But Ad, if Hillary loses Fl that takes away a large part of her path!
glenn
3 days ago
Hang in there, a lot of disappointments so far but still so many results in question.
AdLib 3 days ago
glenn – FL was not needed by Hillary, it was needed by Trump. If he wins it, she can still win but she has to hold onto the rest of the states she was expected to win.
AdLib 3 days ago
One bright spot is that Tammy Duckworth is projected to win. Yea!
glenn

I think we’re going to squeak out Virginia folks. Waaaaay closer than I expected. If she wins it, she’s probably golden barring a disaster in Michigan

AdLib 3 days ago
MgGinty, Kander, looking very good. Ayotte just pulled ahead
funksands
3 days ago
Funk – I think this is truly going to be a long night. Hillary may have to squeak this out and can. Trump only ahead by 10k votes in VA and a lot of Dem votes outstanding. She can do it.
AdLib 3 days ago
But damn, having to see Trump ahead in nearly every swing state??? WTH?
AdLib 3 days ago
Funk–and mostly for trump. Awful!

AdLib 3 days ago
Hillary’s looking better in VA.
AdLib 3 days ago
Yep, 538 thinks its very likey that she wins
funksands
3 days ago
Funk – Yep, I lock up the panic button until the final results come in.
AdLib 3 days ago
NYT’s has Trump at 58%. 538 is based on 12 hrs ago, right?
Questinia
3 days ago
So is Hillary’s struggling a reflection on her or of the underestimated ignorant and angry voters out there?
AdLib 3 days ago
Trump already preparing his protest. This election is too close. He won’t concede. I think Hillary still wins, but I’m imagining an ugly scenario
funksands

AdLib 3 days ago
58% chance of winning.

AdLib 3 days ago
Q – Don’t forget, 538 was completely wrong about tonight, I wouldn’t give any of their claims weight now, Silver has messed up repeatedly.

Ignorance and anger is propelling vote.

I thought Silver was golden?
Questinia

Q – Nope, he’s taken a lot of criticism for arbitrary weighting of polls and his polls are proving completely wrong tonight.
AdLib 3 days ago
538 was the most conservative estimate about the election results. A full 30% below the rest of the firms that had it 90-99% for Clinton
funksands
3 days ago
Funk – Yes but his critics say that he has a habit of weighting polls arbitrarily and changing his polls after the fact too be closer to outcomes.
AdLib 3 days ago

Funk – You and me both.
AdLib 3 days ago
Q, they haven’t been that wrong
funksands
3 days ago
Q – My guess is that they greatly underestimated turnout by the white uneducated and maybe those who can’t abide a woman as President.
AdLib 3 days ago
But in a race this close, it doesn’t take much to upset the projections
funksands
3 days ago
I never saw any polling on how voters felt about having a woman president.
AdLib 3 days ago
Funk – True but there are some big swings between polling and where the numbers are right now.
AdLib 3 days ago
Wisconsin’s worrisome now too.
AdLib 3 days ago
Yep

Can she sneak out Iowa? That would be an awesome wrinkle

There won’t be much of an independent MSM left if Trump won. But that hasn’t happened yet.

Destruction to the globe. Europe is probably quaking. Putin and Trump dividing the countries up.

I said throughout the primaries that Hillary was a weaker candidate than Bernie but I don’t know if he could have won against this angry white rural voote.

I think he would have beaten Trump. I don’t think he would have beaten any of the other GOP candidates. He would have sucked a lot of Trumps oxygen away

Trump won’t be hanging out with the people who elected him. He wants to be liked. He defines himself by the outside and he marketed himself to win. He is an acolyte of George Steinbrenner who taught him to do whatever it takes.

Yes, I agree but they are in his pocket and gratify his need for adoration. Those opposed to him will never embrace him, he can’t get what he needs from you or me.
AdLib 3 days ago
They had to take his Twitter account away from him, he has no self-control. I can’t see how he suddenly becomes a reasonable person.
AdLib 3 days ago
He will never be reasonable. But his weakness is a blind need to be liked. It might get Pavlovian. Clap and cheer for when Trump does something approaching good. Please note I am doing major spinning now!

Q – I do appreciate it!

But this is a man whose whole campaign began and was based on bigotry against “the others”. Hard to imagine someone with his character caring more about moderates approving of him (which will never happen) than keeping his ego gratifying army.

He’s become President, he’s been validated that he can be a monster and be rewarded with becoming the most powerful man in the world. To someone with his ego, that would seem more like carte blanche to fulfill any and every whim noo matter who would be pissed off. As he said, he could shoot someone and not lose his followers. He just might now.
AdLib 3 days ago
Q – I do think that will happen but some of what we have today will become ashes first. Obama came because of the destructions of Bush, someone else from the Dems will come because of Trump. But I’m afraid much will be lost for good along the way.
AdLib 3 days ago
Ad- Yes. Yes. And yes. But he’ll have to deliver more than a fantasy to sustain hubris-filled behavior.

Q – I’ll agree with that. You know, it’s kind of ironic that Hillary set up that private email server, likely to keep her emails private so they couldn’t be used against her by political enemies…and yet it’s what appears to have been what was used to defeat her.
AdLib 3 days ago
coming out *after* the attacks.

And they bought another house in Chappaqua and didn’t get permits to make changes. It is ironic about the emails. It makes one wonder,

Q – Really? Very interesting. It does seem to me though that what’s behind this is both the resistence by the rural Americans to the racial and social changes to the country and their economic decline due to the wealthy like Trump skewing the economic system to benefit themselves at the expense of blue collar workers. And now they’ve elected someone who will only further the pain, hatred and fear they feel.

Narcissists USE people then DISCARD them. Look at how Trump didn’t pay back whoever served him.

Q – Hillary lost her last big election in kind of a similar way. Plenty of missteps but primarily, her opponent (Obama) had passion behind him and Hillary wasn’t inspirational and lost a race she should have won easily. She almost lost the primary to Bernie, a race she should have won easily. Now, she lost an even bigger race she should have won easily. She is not a good politician or campaigner, doesn’t inspire passion and came with so much baggage. She would have lost to Jeb or Kasich too I think. On one hand, this is a shock, on the other hand, it is part of a pattern.
AdLib 3 days ago
Q – Good point. They’re always looking for people to use. I’m just suggesting that those who opposed him in the election won’t submit to being used by him once he’s President. He’s got his choir already, why discard it for one that might not sing for him?
AdLib 3 days ago
I think Trump will saber rattle and rattle louder than a lot of kooks in power out there. He postures better than Hillary. I totally agree about deja vu with Obama and Bernie. She is not resonating authentically with the passion of the times.

So do you think Trump will buck his party and his core voters to do a 180 on all he’s promised to do?

As for the ACA coosts, the MSM pumped up that story, the increase was mostly covered by government payments, The hysteria was a fraud. Now, instead of paying more, they won’t have any insurance. How crazy is that?
AdLib 3 days ago
You are among those who’ve really been hurt by that increase. But if you have a pre-existing condition, you may not be able to get any insurance once the ACA is killed.
AdLib 3 days ago
The ASA needed to be fixed but now it will be killed.
AdLib 3 days ago
In other words will I have to pay $3000 an month? That would force me to work for a corporate entity and I’d have to say good bye to a private practice. Yes on the pre-existing condition as a horror. Maybe that part can be kept. Who doesn’t have a pre-existing condition?
Questinia

Q – The costs went up because not enough healthy young people without pre-existing coonditions bought insurance. It’s a chicken and egg thing. Without government helping to subsidize insurance, there’s no way the provision on not banning people with pre-existing conditions can be kept. That will be ended with the ACA.
AdLib 3 days ago
MSNBC is like Fox was in 2008. Dumbfounded.
Questinia

That’s the whole thing. Insurance companies don’t want to have to pay out, now they can go back too only covering healthier people and build bigger profits.
AdLib 3 days ago
Yep, this time it was the moderates and Progressives who feel, look and sound bushwhacked.
AdLib 3 days ago
Young people also covered longer under their parent’s policies so no need to pay in I suppose.

Right but that was working for the ACA. They expected millions of more young people to get insured but they weren’t insured in any way.

And that provision will end. Like the pre-existing condition aspect, they were mandated and financed by the ACA. When the ACA is gone, thoose will be gone, likely for the rest of our lifetimes. It took 50 years too get it passed.
