In today's age, unemployment will never be that low with any President. If gas goes that low, it probably will have nothing to do with Obama. One of the biggest myths is that the President can make the price of gas go up or down. In reality, he has little control of it. Before the election, experts predicted that no matter who won the election, things will probably be much better in 4 years, and whoever was in office would take/get credit for it.

Many people predict now that the left and right will both move more to the center to get things done. Let's hope they're right.

Well, then they shouldn't have bought him .

From your mouth to God's ears, Lou. Political moderacy is the only hope for the future. The only hope. People who can't see that from too far down either side of the political aisle are living in the past.

I think there's a good chance of it happening. Obama is now all about his legacy, and he no longer has to suck up to the base. He can move to the center. The Republicans saw their extreme right policies blow up in their faces in both the Presidential election, and Senate races. If they're smart, they'll work with the Democrats.

That's the key.

The amount of money spent on these campaigns and advertising was disgusting, that money could of been used to help people in need etc.

Well thats that "cool" phenomenom called Mass Hypnosis and no1 cares where the money goes and how much of it,just go out and vote....again

I understand there is a contingent of House Republicans who are going to break with the tea party and engage in negotiations. Apparently Obama and Boehner get along fairly well and were very close to striking the "grand bargain." With electoral politics out of the way for at least six months (2014 looms!) it is in Omama's and Boehmer's best interest to push through a tax and deficit cutting deal,and move us away from the cliff. It is also something that would enhance both men's legacies. Obama would be seen as a better president and Boehner a better and stronger speaker of the house. Let's hope they can do what Reagan and Tip O'Neill did.

The love that dare not speak its name?

Karl Rove is having a painful day after, trying to explain how his machine failed to deliver. On a side note my poor brother-in-law has been in NYC three times in the last year and a half, and every time there he's been stopped by people, who thinks he's Karl Rove. He even had to show his license to a lady, who didn't believe it.

On other notes PA delivered by 5 points as I said it would a couple weeks ago. The day will come again when it goes republican in a presidential race, but this certainly wasn't the time.

I think Congress is going to have to back off its stated priority of doing whatever it can to undermine the President. They won't be running against an incumbent. They won't be as attached to the Tea Party agenda that took all the credit for the 2010 midterm elections, and they know they're being watched closely.

Not that it matters now, but what's going on in Florida? Is there going to be a recount again? Why don't they project the winner yet?

I think the voting lines in Dade County are presently down to a three hour wait. Voter suppression must continue even when it's defeated by the people.

I am offering Donald trump $5,000,000 if he can provide me with a videotape of him criticizing the Electoral College in 2000 when Bush defeated Gore despite losing the popular vote. I also require that he also include his seventh grade school transcripts.

He said the election was a sham. It wasn't...even though he did his best to make it one.

It was bound to happen when the early voting was cut short. Thank goodness it was not up to Florida and not 2000 all over again.

Amen to that, nobody from this side was revolting then.

I think they said there are about 2.5 million people undecided. It seems they all voted for Obama, cause that's the number by which he is leading. Think of all the money GOP spend and all the false ads.

I just can't not post this, I got such a laugh out of how awkward that walk was down to the "Decision Desk."



"There's too much Obama vote..."
"There just aren't enough Republican votes left.."
"Percent certainty? -99.95."

I saw that. As most Fox staff was, Megyn was, at the very least, perplexed.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Thanks Gina. That IS hilarious.

Boy just couldn't believe their ears hu? Poor Mr. Bush's Brain, crunching those numbers like crazy. Ha ha. After blowing what on the campaign with his super pac? $300 million? Yikes!!

Thomas Jefferson said:

"I never considered a difference of opinion as to politics, religion and philosophy as a reason to withdraw from a friend."

Thomas Jefferson never watched Fox News.

Jefferson also never used Facebook.

My news feed was a train wreck last night - so full of bitter attacks, and yet I kept reading. I must admit I enjoyed the entertainment!

This is like watching David Letterman walking on camera to the roof to throw a watermelon off the building. I wish the camera would have passed a sobbing Sean Hannity.

This is funny.

i sure hate fox news as much as any of the other jokester msm, but megan is more than welcome to sleep over whenever she wants!

I've watched Fox most of the day. Its pundits, for the most part, have been exhibiting a demeanor that is a cross between chagrin and anger.

My boy Romney? I supported him in the election but in no way shape or form was he the perfect candidate. I thought he was a better alternative, because no matter how you people want to spin it, Obama's first terms was sluggish, ineffective and he was not a strong leader. He governed from the left as opposed to the middle and he achieved almost nothing other than the auto bailout, Iraq and killing Osama Bin Laden.

I want nothing more for the House and Obama to work together to get something done I really do. Whether it will happen I don't know but I certainly do not wish ill on our president, I don't want him to fail I and I want this country to go forward in a bipartisan manner, no matter who is in office.

But let's face it, the people elected Obama, but in no way was it by a landslide like the last time. He may have handily beaten Romney in electoral votes, but the popular vote was pretty even. Half of this country is not satisfied with Obama and his administration which has to tell him something.

The Republicans on the other hand, need to stop going so extreme and become more moderate and drop this damn tea party sherade which is the lousiest excuse for politics I have ever seen. People like Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachmann don't belong in any position of power.

Bottom line: we just need to work together and get shit done.

Fuck them and the horse they rode in on.

I listened to Beck, Hannity AND Limbaugh today.
Limbaugh was like "F*** all you moochers!".
Hannity said the same thing but admitted the Republicans might need to change branding.
Beck was on the verge of a nervous breakdown. He made comparisons to the American Revolution and said "sometimes God sucks".

Sorry I couldn't resist, enjoy.

DD,

I love that first picture. Who is the President on the left with the brown shirt? Cool picture



TIS

LBJ, I love that picture as well!

Who is the guy all the way on the right with the glasses? And who is the guy that his back is facing the picture and is from the old days of the republic?
