Meh another 4 years in the 2 party system.

Oh well, Obama at least looks honest.  Romney looks like a sleazy used car salesman.

P.S. Yes I'm aware that basing my election hopes on what a candidate looks like is wrong.  But I didn't vote for either of those guys, so I still get to complain.  Rosanne Barr woulda put this country straight.

So, I'm not going to have to use this?
That's kinda' disturbingly well done.

Anyway, Aqi, m'good fellow! You've been a host. I'd even say maybe a good one (especially considering the shit the thread's been dealt, all things considered)! And I'm just going to go ahead and say, "Thanks."

So now you can't say the effort you put into this, however much that was, was thankless :P

How long do you intend to let this thing stay open? Inauguration? Until recount foofala settles down? Official numbers released? What's our ETA for going back to making individual threads for American political nonsense?

Is this the bit where we all put on our shocked faces and proclaim 'Oh my, a black president? I never thought I would see the day! What an age of equity we live in!!!!'

Or am I late to the party?

So what do people think about 2016?  I think Biden and O'Malley are democrats to watch not to mention Clinton while Ryan will probably be the standard bearer on the right.

If you want something to act shocked about... Obama is the first president who's been elected after openly supporting gay marriage :P

Well folks, we've cryed, we've laughed, we've cried because the candidates made us laugh, have we laughed because the candidates made us cry? Anyway, it's been fuun. Let's never do it again.

My thanks to you, gracious OP. You were everything we could have wanted. Or close enough. Rather like the election.

Romney campaign director in Ohio is disputing the result, insisting Ohio is still in play.

Awwww fuck, here we go.

Thankya kinda broseph.  I have no intention of closing the thread unless some asswipe decides to bump it a year later or start some flamewar.  Let it preserve for all time.  Maybe I'll even update the OP, now that no one will ever have a reason to look at it again.

And with that, hope is restored to my dark, cynical heart for US politics.
