All those pretty faces with not a lick of sense between 'em.
Ok...that actually made me LOL....
Spot on...
I've had my tagline for years.
Falling short of handing out boxes of tissues and a room to cry in
Lunatics
I remember freepers recommending the times site for unbiased coverage on election night
cue Jackie the Jokeman:...Haw! Haw!
In 2012, I stayed up passed midnight watching the returns, was both depressed and exhausted the next day.
I went to bed about 8 PM on purpose on election day, having seen those returns saying Clinton would win. I shepherded the kids to bed, said we’d managed 8 years of Obama, we’d survive four years of her.
In the morning, I kept the radio off until after taking the kids to school. Being told Trump won was disconcerting. What? Opened up a news website to make sure I wasn’t being punked by a coworker. For me, it was like Christmas. For coworkers, they felt on 2016 the way I had in 2012 on Romney’s loss.
This photo is my Wallpaper for the day. I’m naming it “The future Past”.
I LOVED that needle in 2016. I kept it on a 2nd screen and cheered every time it lurched.
I’d have cried for my country if a known a corrupt af politician like Hitlery Rotten Clinoton “won” in 2016.

At least for now, the government agencies like EPA and IRS aren’t being used to harass citizens over political differences.
so sorry you missed election night 2016. I understand the feeling though. I studied the polls and was sure Romney had it and 6+ senate seats. We invited friends over, had a party etc. Even Tester won his senate race. So glad we stayed up with the kiddos in 2016. Everyone got an election map to make their predictions, had a blast, BUT we didn’t invite anyone over. We just told everyone what was really happening through facebook. Still fun having people FB us if we went 10 minutes without saying anything. Definitely a night to remember.
“Some thoughts on those angry voters. Ask parents of any two-year-old and they can tell you about those temper tantrums: the stomping feet, the rolling eyes, the screaming. It’s clear that the anger controls the child and not the other way around. It’s the job of the parent to teach the child to control the anger and channel it in a positive way. Imagine a nation full of uncontrolled two-year-old rage. The voters had a temper tantrum last week....Parenting and governing don’t have to be dirty words: the nation can’t be run by an angry two-year-old.”
— ABC World News Tonight anchor Peter Jennings in his daily ABC Radio commentary, November 14 1994
If it were a true indication of the election, it would start out dead in the middle, 50/50, before any vote was cast, and teeter-totter back and forth during the night when states started to report.
Instead, that dumb needle started out flopped over on the side of Clinton before a single vote was tallied. I will go out on a limb and state that this was all intended to depress the Republican vote, even before any vote was cast.
Could we please issue a $50 Billion grant to cure STUPID?
Great stroll down memory lane, thanks!!
Tha was a clue. Wellesly is all female, I think. That, plus the gal in the W sweatshirt, and many other not legible but looking similar. Did Shrillary go to Wellesly? Maybe not. Might have been Smith. Hoo kares?!!
