QUOTE (greg775 @ Nov 7, 2012 -> 04:55 PM) Yes, but we don't know how Hillary is going to act as the candidate. If she is Miss Prissy b**** as she's appeared to be in the past, I say she loses. In fact she could lose in a landslide. Remember, there are still intangibles in elections. Many voters still go by how a person looks on TV. If Hillary looks like an old hag and speaks words of b****iness and Rubio is up there all handsome and all that, he'll win in a landslide. I don't think you can give it to Hillary just because of Bill. Remember, women voted big time for Obama; men chose Romney. Women may not vote for Hillary just because she will be the first female president. And we know a lot of men will not vote for her just because she is a woman. The intangibles still leave a lot of unknowns ... mainly the Hillary/b**** factor on a long campaign trail. We'll see if Obama's coalition can hold, lot's of pundits didn't think he could replicate 2008. Obama's numbers went down because he lost working class white men and more Republicans turned out this time but if his coalition is a solid Democratic one, the GOP is in real trouble. They need to be more inclusive, old white guys won't win you elections anymore. If the economy is humming along in 2016, no one is beating Hilary.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Nov 7, 2012 -> 11:42 AM) The fact that the Republican part is shocked that people voted for more people's rights regarding social issues like abortion and marriage equality instead of for their economic plan shows how out of touch they really are. Young people came out in mass to vote for Obama primarily for those reasons. Unless the GOP softens up their stance in no-win issues like those they are going to be behind the 8-ball. This If they keep on the path they've been on, TX will be in play for the Dems much sooner than CA or NY for them. Demographics in TX are trending blue.

I don't have Fox News (thank God), but I would've loved to have watched them last night for the lulz.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Nov 7, 2012 -> 08:43 AM) Marriage equality won on the ballot in three states. Progressive champion Warren is in the Senate. Tammy Baldwin, the first openly gay Senator, was elected. Obama won with a strong electoral vote margin. This was a pretty solid night for liberals.

Proud to be part of the voting bloc that got Prez Obama re-elected. Hey GOP, if you want the White House in the future, stop using us as the boogey man to rile up your racists

QUOTE (greg775 @ Nov 6, 2012 -> 03:54 PM) Well, I truly was an undecided voter heading into the poll just now. I voted for Obama. I'm sick of having to base my decision on who I think is the best of 2 bad candidates. I can't remember the last time I was fired up about a presidential candidate. But of all the Soxtalker's I think I was the only undecided voter heading into today and I did vote for Obama though I do think he's been a poor leader. Or a very blah leader at best. I think Romney is a scary guy who gives me a weird vibe. He just does. I won't offend the world and say I voted for Obama cause he is a Sox fan and Bears fan, but that is one positive in his corner at least. Knowing me as you all do, are u surprised I voted for the Big O today? I'm surprised you didn't write in Ozzie Guillen.

Simple question, why can't all voting machines give you a receipt with the voting choices you made? You can verify it, put it in a ballot box and if there's any disputed result, you can go back and hand count them. Seems so simple as a solution, voting machines that leave no paper trails are an easy target to tamper with...and that would stop all the conspiracy theories about one side trying to steal the election.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Nov 6, 2012 -> 10:29 AM) Overall, early vote turnout OH up 2.44% in state. Down -4.1% in Obama/Kerry counties; up 14.39% in Bush/McCain counties. — Josh Kraushaar (@HotlineJosh) November 6, 2012 That's strange, I read somewhere that early voting in Democratic parts of Ohio were strong.

Every state should have early voting and election day should be a national holiday or on a weekend. The more people vote the better, it's our civic duty.

QUOTE (SOXOBAMA @ Nov 6, 2012 -> 10:14 AM) Luke Russert @LukeRussert Democrats have a 66,527 advantage over Republicans in early voting in the state, a 10 point advantage what state?

QUOTE (Jake @ Nov 5, 2012 -> 10:31 PM) Why is it that every political scientist everywhere (and don't get it wrong, that's what Nate Silver is) is predicting an Obama win? Simply put, they hate the message so they try to kill the messanger. We'll finally find out tonight if the stats guys were right. My bet is that they will be. For all it's worth, professor Wang predicted the exact EV count in 2004 so that alone proves he isn't biased, he calls it as he sees it.

We also need to move the pocket more against Green Bay and I can't recall a screen pass to Forte ever working against them. The Bears need to work on that because conventional offensive sets ain't working.
