OK...so Obama has won reelection. It will be bad, of that there is NO doubt. However, good can come from this.

hmm, so that’s what you think the 47% is about ~ BTW, that’s not it. And 47% aren’t on the dole.

Hi, E-o-H-h,

I appreciate your well-thought out analysis. I hope you’re right. At some point, I couldn’t take the election coverage anymore and put on a taped ‘Touched by an Angel” and when my husband switched to CNN, I started crying when I saw the results.

There was an earlier poster who mentioned the possibility of a Palin-West ticket in 2016. I dearly hope that is the case. I voted for Sarah—not McCain—in the last election.

Romney, for all his faults, did his best—but the “hopey changey thing” is apparently working for too many Americans with their free government cell phones, etc. And who knows what was going on behind the scenes (fraud, etc.)

It is a dark day in America. I really did not believe this would happen, given the state of the economy.

God bless...

The GOP-E tried to play nice.

The RATS played dirty.

You can’t fight dirty with nice.

Until the GOP figures out how to:

1) Nominate real conservatives

2) Get down in the muck with the RATS and use every tactic (rhetorical or otherwise) available

they/we will continue to lose.

Look at how the RATS poisoned peoples’ minds against “the rich.” The GOP could have countered with a under the radar campaign against “the takers/moochers/looters.” It would work; you know it would. But, they don’t want to soil their hands.

We have to be done listening to them.

It does not matter if Romney was conservative or not any longer. He was perceived as conservative. I was already hearing the GOP Elites on FOX tonight saying, “This is what happens when the GOP nominates a conservative.” This is also why I believed we had lost as soon as Romney got the nod. He did not contrast well enough with the Left when people looked at his record.

Planning for the future should wait until emotion dies a bit. Emotion precludes Reason. If the House bends over as expected, all the planning in the world will not turn things around for a long time.

Agreed. The takers will just figure out more and more ways to take from the makers.

We are confident in GOD... it is man that we do not trust. Our Kingdom is not of this world... we conservative Christians along with most Conservatives... are trying to make the best of this world that we can. HE wanted it that way... until HE is ready to come back.

Like I have said repeatedly tonight... we get 4 more years of holder and obama... obamacare... single payer... death panels... 70% tax rates... no coal or nuclear... 10 trillion in new debt... $10.00 gas... Stock market crashed... dollar devalued... USA Bond rating of B... surrender to mexico and iran and the abandonment of Israel... and the war on whites... yes I said it... the war on whites. Listen to what bob beckel said about their plans for us on Fox tonight. These people intend to destroy us along with America. I do not see how they can be stopped. The political solution is no longer viable... we lost our last election tonight carville was finally right... except there will be nothing left in 40 years.

Agreed. We will not win the vote again. The takers have won.

” Emphasize sites like FR and others that support and promote real conservative values. Get the word out to others. Alluding to my previous point....I cannot believe there are those in the GOP Media who attack FreeRepublic, WND, Drudge, and some other sites. Hint: A GOP Talker or Media person is not a conservative if they are attacking this site or other conservative sites”

We won’t have this in a year. Don’t you get it? All descent is going to be shut down. The Internet will be regulated. The state run press will be all there is in a year. Valerie Jarrett told us as much.
There will be no way for you to get “your” message to anyone. He gets 2 more SC judges. that’s it. Your guns are gone...any they know you have. You won’t be able to purchase ammo for them after this year. You gonnaa throw rocks at his heavily armed in house militia?
Everything you considered free is about to end. They’re gonna have a party ripping up the constitution, and piss on it’s pieces.
We have NO rights that we can depend on as of today. So this dream of continuing some kind of resistance to these people had better go underground now!

OH cuban leaf, thank you THANK YOU for this great word.
I so hope that you will start a thread for all of us believers and help us gear up for the days ahead.

I’ve been a believer for over 60 years. The past 10 is where God has been doing some real refining.

I know we are in for some diffucult days. I think that is why I am heartsick tonight. I had so hoped we could buy some time.

He will return, and I pray it will be soon.

Polly

Plan what? Our population does not want a conservative. Accept it! I used to think the same thing, that a real conservative could win. Nope. Look around! They don’t want it! They didn’t even want Romney’s half conservative. These people want communism!

Exactly right. Freepers are delusional if they believe otherwise. It's over. We lost. Not just the election, either...

Companies employing Union Workers need to start laying off Members starting at the opening of the workday this morning. It the Union balks? Off Shore. It’s time to break the endorsed and funded Union Socalism in the USA.

—— Romney did not fail. The Republican party did not fail. AMERICA failed.-——

Sadly, you’re right.

We must now focus on survival. We must clan up. Get together with like-minded family members to create a support system. Do not depend on government for anything.

Distance yourself from untrustworthy liberal family members, i.e., potential informants.

Develop skills that can be used in the “cash only” economy.

Pray.

The country simply cannot afford the second group. That’s why we’ve been trying so hard to abort them out of existence since 1973.

2010 was an HISTORIC election victory for conservatives and the republican party, not just a good year, 2014 is something worth fighting for and definitely winnable.

2010 was what it was. But today 2010 means jack without a follow-up. Did the Tea Party fail? Hell, no! Unless I see some very convincing numbers to the contrary. We turned out strong today. What was stronger, unfortunately, was the additional class of government-dependent voters Obama managed to create in the last four years. The demographic is growing faster than we are.

Can we finally end this crap about god caring for this country?
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

If you think God has NOT blessed us, you need to travel to South America, East Asia, India...

The reason for most of our problems is because WE have SHUT GOD OUT of our culture.
