Great!

Now, if dipshit Bentley will appoint Jonathan McConnell to fill the vacancy,everything will be fine. Because who wouldn't want a Senator who is also a Class III dealer?

Honestly I think She and her campaign were so shell shocked at the loss (and magnitude thereof) that they needed time to compose themselves enough to figure out what to say.

I guarantee they didn't have a concession speech prepped.

If you want to see politics based on emotionalism over reason and a borderline-religious devotion to an iconic figure, forget the Trump Army; look instead to the Cult of Clinton.

Ever since Donald Trump won the presidential election, all eyes, and wringing hands, have been on the white blob who voted for him. These "loud, illiterate and credulous people," as a sap at Salon brands them, think on an "emotional level." Bill Moyers warned that ours is a "dark age of unreason," in which "low information" folks are lining up behind "The Trump Emotion Machine." Andrew Sullivan said Trump supporters relate to him as a "cult leader fused with the idea of the nation."

What's funny about this is not simply that it's the biggest chattering-class hissy fit of the 21st century so far — and chattering-class hissy fits are always funny. It's that whatever you think of Trump (I'm not a fan) or his supporters (I think they're mostly normal, good people), the fact is they've got nothing on the Clinton cult when it comes to creepy, pious worship of a politician.

The next major date is December 19th, when they certify the election results.

Pay attention to what's happening with Jill Stein and the Green Party's attempt to force a recount in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania.

Of particular interest is the rolling total of contributions to fund the recounts. It seems to be increasing at a very linear rate; perhaps a bit too linear?

Electronic voting machines are fine and voter fraud is a myth until they lose. Fuck them.

I'm curious as to how Russia(or anyone else) would hack into a electronic voting machine not connected to the internet, while it was at the polling station.
