He'll be too busy worrying about the Fairness Doctrine.

Exactly if the democrats get 59-60 seats bye bye talk radio. Then they will go after fox I am sure. Crush any voice of opposition is what pelosi/reid believe in.

Congrats Obama. Hell of a campaign you ran :beer:

Now don't blow it by becoming a waterboy for the extremists in your own party (Pelosi/Reid/Kennedy).

This.

looking like the democrats might end up with 59 seats.

if so, it'll be a damn fine time to be Joe Lieberman.


So it might as well be 60 then since joe is a democrat in everything but nation security. So Pelosi/Reid can do as the want with this country then. Worst election night ever when 1 party has complete control with no checks what so ever.
I doubt all the Democrats would get behind any truly radical legislation.

Time to apply for a passport for the first time in my American life. I need to get outta here while I can still afford to. USA+OBAMA=USSR! I wish all the damn southern states weren't so hot and humid.

It's time for me to get a passport. This is the first time in my adult life that I think American is worth visiting.

😛 Make sure you look at the map of which states voted for McCain & which states voted for Obama.

Or just visit a major city :roll:

If he does that, he'll instantly ruin all credibility of "change" and "hope" he thinks he's won tonight.

It IS a landslide.

Reagan? 😕

Nixon in 72?
Raw number majority. His popular vote tally will eclipse most.
 
In Chicago the song they are playing is the same one they used for the 'toaster dance' from ghostbusters. Funny how music makes you recall things 🙂

Not at all it will only be a few years. I have confidence that the republicans will make big gains in 2 years and 4 years from now. When Obama/Pelosi/Reid crush evil business owners with taxes and legislation unemployment will reach double digits. People will see that socialism does not work. It was a hard lesson learned under carter and will be a hard lesson learned under Obama.
 
Wouldn't this be a KICKASS time for Obama to throw on a Turban? 😉 :beer:

Hmm. So far I see reagan had a large popular vote advantage in 1980. Maybe he meant largest percentage of votes (reagan only got 50.7 in 1980)

amen. taxing the coperations will simply result in more job less, but by then it will be too late. we'll all be co-dependents, republicans, democrats, independents, and it won't even matter. the government will have total control.

u think this administration sucks? just wait.
