I just can't stop gloating about Romney's loss

Lawrence O'Donnell had more tape of Romney's sour grapes phone call to his fleeced donors and it was hilarious: "We're still having a hard time, just contemplating what could have been versus what is, and it just doesn't seem real, we're still in the stage of denial at my house. We still think the campaign is going on." And his insulting comments about Hispanic voters were unbelievable. Romney is being relegated to the bottom of the dustbin of history, a place he so richly deserves to be. I have never seen a more unworthy candidate for President.


I can't wait for the books written by disgruntled campaign workers to come out and I plan to read every single one. I have always been active and interested in politics, but I have never internalized an election the way I have with this one. I was bitterly disappointed and angry at the GOP's theft of the 2000 & 2004 elections, but I still didn't have the intensly personal feelings I have now. I feel like I personally beat that bastard which, in a sense, I guess I did by voting. It is glorious.

I just can't stop smiling.

Side note, I prefer that photo undoctored. I enjoyed the Presidents actual expression.

With a candidate awkward enough to compare cleaning up after a hurricane to sweeping a high-school football field "covered with rubbish and paper goods from people who'd had a big celebration there at the game" - you KNOW there have to be plenty of disgruntled campaign workers.

There was something about this man that just repulsed me. Thank God, he lost.

I think that's the main reason we were all mad at Obama when he blew the 1st debate, it wasn't so much anger at Obama but anger with fear that Myth could actually pull it off & win on ignorance.
We all know Robme as president would have been a cataclysmic loss for this world, not jut USA but the world, for decades to come.

Thank God he lost, the man is evil.
