This election gave me a little faith back in our country’s level of intelligence after it elected W once. We need a strong two party system but sadly the Republicans have gone so far to the lunatic fringe right that it gives many of us no choice. Perhaps this will force them back towards the middle where compromise, which is the bedrock of any democracy, is reached. Great to see that those two loonies who chose to bring rape into their campaigns and claimed to understand the will of “God” were put down.
When the radical right is reduced to 8%, like the union membership of workers in this country, and unions actually do regain some control over “industry”, we will all be better off.
Gotta love the Obama Get Out the Vote ‘machine’…. quite a few of those swing states had >100% (up to 141%) voting… amazing that there were more voters than residents in these swing states!!!
Massey, of Massey Energy, killed his men by refusing to comply with even reduced safety regulations, mandated his folks “rally for Romney”, without pay, then fired them when Obama won. He’s a pretty good example of the “anti-union” corporate structure.
Rove complained that Obama’s negative ads “suppressed” the vote. So I guess the Dem turnout would have been 200% plus? I guess Rove doesn’t think HIS negative ads suppressed the vote, even though BOTH candidates got less than the 2008 totals.

Pennsylvania’s claim as the Keystone State no longer holds true.

And the Zit trying to sell himself as a moderate is proof of just how far right they have gone.

More likely offered more than union scale to mask the lack of benefits!
