It's sort of awesome, all the clutching as Florida and Ohio take their time and meanwhile enough other states piled up so that fuck 'em, doesn't matter.
"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.

Florida only recounts if the amount of vote difference is <.5%. Obama's lead is above .5%.

Its official, Romney has gone from beaten to FUCKING CRUSHED.

Not even funny or exciting, I'm in actual awe.

Good fucking job Obama, for all the shit you went through, you just trolled the entire nation.

I doubt they'll recount. Honestly, it isn't going to be by a few votes. When it is tens of thousands of votes, I think the state will simply say, "Romney, no. You lost. Go back on the campaign trail, like you've been for the last 7 years."

Don't make fun of me! Some of us had to stay sober and stuff to do all that moddy stuff! (And sadly, though getting totally plastered sounds awfully nice, I fear I'll only be nursing this one cider for the next several hours.) :p

Though, I have gotta say, NSG, I have been very pleasantly surprised with your collective behavior today so far. Yeah, we had a flurry of warns and banhammer beatings early on, and the occasional one throughout the evening, but overall you guys have been friggin' awesome about not going into a rulebreaking political-fueled rage or anything.

And I'll drink to that!
