Or so it looks. I mean, Fox was one of the first to call Ohio and the election. And if Fox says it … well …
I dunno. I'll feel better when it turns into an actual 300+ ECV majority. I keep waiting for the other shoe to drop.
That said … while there were some other disappointments tonight, there were a lot of other significant wins — goofy rap comment guys voted out, Elizabeth Warren voted in, so on and so forth. And time for more of that catching up tomorrow.
So Obama's won. And I suspect we'll have more of the status quo from the last four years. The Republic will endure. Karl Rove will make some excuses. Bryan Fischer will predict the apocalypse. Liberals will be disappointed by a centrist administration. Conservatives will be sure Marxist confiscation of their guns to give them all to gay atheist Muslims. The House GOP will obstruct. The Senate GOP will filibuster.
Could be worse.

Yep, the people have spoken so we'll see how it goes.
"Could be worse"
That remains to be seen.
Current math says, even if Ohio is flipped back and FL and VA go to Romney, by no means assured, Obama still wins.
(Whew.)
Yeah, we'll see.
Hopefully, we can start talking about specific policies and issues again, rather than broad all-or-nothing categorical shouting matches.
Elizabeth Warren won in Massachusetts! <—- very happy about this.
@Kevin – Me, too.
And now, back to Republicans filibustering everything for another 4 years… yay!
Most likely. Maybe.
