Vanity: Time to stop being down in the dumps and start planning for 2014 and 2016

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

"Palin/West 2016."

Unfortunately, it wasn't Palin/West 2012.

Romney-the-RINO couldn't deliver, which is what I thought long ago when the GOP-E put him up there.

I only Register as an (R) to be able to vote in the Primaries.

Boehner and the House is worthless now, moreso than before, because they refuse to de-fund the illegal Regulatory bodies, Czars, etc., who simply dole out Tax money to buy votes from the 47%.

After decades of indoctrination by Union Teachers (Liberals, all, who can't hold real jobs), and by having the Union money-laudering machine for the Agenda, America will not turn around no matter how many "Elections" occur. Too many have been taught to think they have "Rights" to be have all they want paid for by others, and their sex lives included.

We will run out of "Others" very soon.....and that's when it will turn around.

I couldn't be more disgusted with Americans (and Illegals) right now, especially women voters who put The Messiah (the Kenyan) back in the White Hut, and NO COURT will even touch the issue of his inelbibility.....

Texas survived one Obama term, and we’ll survive another. The rest of you are screwed.

Your 7th point is the most useful and inspiring thing I’ve heard all evening. Thank you for the reminder and God bless you for posting it.

Americans have lost their ability to rationalize. We will have to face a period of painful tribulation before we recover that ability.

When we must humble ourselves before God, and ask he may grant us reprieve as he sees fit.

Reminding us of the 47% thesis, you had Sean Hannity and his crowd running a campaign to raise taxes on the poor for most of a year.

I suggested that's not the way to keep Democrats from wanting to vote for Obama!

The thesis is wrong anyway, but the Democrats showed up to vote ~ not in the numbers they did in 2008, but more than us ~ they had a 10 million vote overhang ~ and that's a tough hurdle ~ best dealt with through vote suppression techniques.

I think Sean should be asked to remove himself from tax questions!

Things are bad, but IT IS NOT THE END OF THE WORLD PEOPLE! We haved survived worse.

Thank you for being one of the few voices of sanity on this board tonight. If anything, this election outcome will energize our side like never before. I expect to see the Tea Party steel its resolve to do whatever it takes to beat the demon back.

I also see this as a final repudiation of milquetoast Republican nominees, for the foreseeable future. Our side is going to be in NO mood to entertain supporting any but the staunchest conservatives for a very, very long time to come.

It's time for Reagan brand Republicans again. We will go on, and we will fight!

Romney was NOT a conservative...."

So Romney lost the "conservative" vote to Obama?

I think you better take a look at the votes. Obama won, NOT because Romney was "not a conservative", Obama won because there are NOW more STUPID people than rational people. A conservative is not going to win the "STUPID" vote.

The Bible says there is a time for everything. It’s now the time to mourn; don’t tell people to ignore this as if nothing happened.

I know what you’re trying to say, but I just don’t agree. The last four years were Barry’s warm-up to the REAL agenda; by 2016, the entitlement mentality will be so strongly entrenched in American culture that nobody who opposes it - read conservatives - will ever be nominated for the presidency, let alone elected.

No, it isn’t about figuring out how to win in the future; it’s about figuring out how to survive.

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!

IT IS THE END. All this talk about the next time we’ll get the right candidate. Just running in circles. Personally, at this moment: I give up.

You have the correct attitude.

This was one battle that was lost. At best, this loss will help us avoid the obvious mistakes made.

There will be other battles in the future, and our goal is to win more battles than we tie or lose.

The purpose of our future battles is to win the WAR, just as Breitbart warned us.

On the positive side we need to list what the problems are.

On the negative side we need to list what mistakes were made.

No, I’m done. I’ve been a good soldier for fifty plus years... it’s time to move on. I will be switching to Independent and will go socially moderate and fiscally conservative with a mindset of getting my share. NO more protecting the middle class.

The main thing I worry about is the “army of youth as well armed and trained as the army” he spoke of when the was given the oath of office before. He apparently has the ammo but maybe not the rest yet...? Since we have the National Guard, what does he need with that? Now that he’s back in office for 4 more, what’s he going to do?

Guess I need to change my name to “worry wart”!

Thinking ahead, a few possible names for 2016: Mike Pence, Jim DeMint, Rick Santorum, Bobby Jindal, Sarah Palin.

A possibility for the next few hours: bedtime. Good night, all.

Hey now...Arkansas, Louisiana, Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia and South Carolina are there too...maybe we just need to make the whole thing “Republic of Texas” and see what happens.

I just said this on Sermo. The doctor's discussion board.

Obama can NEVER cry racism ever again. Nor can any of his followers.

All of the $hit that's coming down in the next 4 years is ALL Obama, ALL the time.

Now that we're headed back into a recession, all the dimwits who wanted this guy to keep on keepin'on can suck it.

Palin/West 2016.

You beat me to the punch. I think tonight was a call to duty for Sarah.

HUH??? You will not recognize America in 2016.

2016 Obama's America

I left the GOP in 2006 and want it to disappear from the national scene - this is truly embarrassing to put this clown back in office after what he and the RAT party have done to this once proud and great nation.

OR Americans really are that stupid. They deserve the Government they elect. Good luck with that.

Yes.. there is a bright side. BO is totally responsible for the mess he created. The Benghazi massacre, the Muslim brotherhood surges, the isolation of Israel vis-a-vis Iran's nukes, the Katrina-like mess in NY and NJ, all the economic ambivalence, the destruction of our health care, no federal budget, "printing" tons more money to finance the federal debt.. and more.

Patriots in the Washington elite are just going to let these 1960s Marxist-Alinsky campus radicals (psycho spoiled brats) and their ideological issue (Obama) finish us off?

Can we finally end this crap about god caring for this country? All that praying was very effective. Anyone who owns a gun store is pumped. Sales will be booming

Hear, hear. God obviously either hates us, or doesn't exist. I am leaning toward the latter. Praying is obviously useless and a waste of time. At least the liberal god government is real and tangible. They can always pray for more free stuff and it magically appears. When conservatives pray, we get Obama and more democrat senators.

My dad is a devout born-again. I told him 4 months ago that I was going to get a big promotion that was offered to me. He said he prayed and prayed for me to be successful with my new position. Turns out, I didn't get the job because my company didn't get the money they wanted from the contract. I ended up getting laid off instead of getting the promotion. So, thanks for the prayers, but they worked as well as they always do...
