I am beginning to become scared that Romney/Ryan will win. Can smart people please post here and say reassuring things to convince me that he won't?

oracle speaks

are you seriously telling people to vote against the first android candidate for a major party?

Power to the decline of people, right on. xxp

a banaka post is auspicious like a f-15 flyover before kickoff imo

When Romney loses I hope Guitar Center gets the credit.

banaka endorsement seals this for obama imo

some concern ought to be expressed wrt banaka's motives for deigning to engage with the individuo-plebiscitic-conscientuous-ameliorative model of 'representative' 'democracy' and whether unpure elements are subverting banaka from within

Infecting all voting machines as we speak.

what is even happening now

The most important erection of USA's life

the true path banakan ideology would consider the rigged voting machine as the only article of hope in the abyss, promising as it does the crushing of whimsical feelgood sentiment by the crystalline instrumental logic of the autophagous parasite-host that is capital prior to the singularity

will we even have elections after the singularity, wouldn't we just all vote for ourselves and then get on with resonating with the music of the spheres or w/e

that and hunting down subterranean humans iirc

platonic form of democracy is exercised in the moment that we collectively vote to upload our consciousness to the singularity and that ends history

The Singularity implies a quasi-religious eschatological event i.e. "the Rapture for geeks", beyond which one can only speculate. We do not choose to speak of our project in those terms.

Trying to follow these four different threads...is like the Seinfeld where the four of them are in four different movie theatres.

ya that u's in there what you gonna do, you're all too busy

Y'all in Deus Ex DLC/expansion pack story territory now

throw him in a pond tho

maybe when he came out his junk would be outlined by his wet trousers

"No retreat, no surrender," sang rock icon Bruce Springsteen, warming up Obama's crowd on a frosty morning outside the State Capitol in Madison, Wis. The Boss then boarded Air Force One for his first flight. "Pretty cool," he judged it.

Romney had Kid Rock and the Marshall Tucker Band in the wings for his late appearances in Ohio and New Hampshire.

can't you see, can't you see, what Obama, Lord, he been doin to me

Picturing Kid Rock throwing a shoulder-bump with the Marshall Tucker guys on the tour bus, pitching a "Fire On the Mountain" cover with the guys.

proportional map kinda reassuring

Vid of the President's last campaign rally tonight in Iowa. Bruce introduces Michelle, and her husband's voice is gone to an almost Clinton-rasp.

Enh, this shoulda gone in the other thread, but whaddaya gunna do, we got like 20 hours left

Last campaign speech he'll ever give (for himself). ;_;

Of course, he'll be campaigning for future Dems until he drops dead I'm sure.

After 2016, he and Bruce can just tour as a duo act, taking turns as headliner.

proportional map kinda reassuring

w/FL as tossup? maybe not v. reassuring

don't need florida

That's true in general. If we can airlift Alfred out, we can let the rest of it go.

Make the Magic Kingdom a principality, Alfred can be king.

i like the nyt main story headline right now

"Costly, Bitter Race Is Down to the Voters"

don't need florida

is that right? the proportional map above reads like "yes, need florida," doesn't it?

This is a pretty handy graphic of the permutations from the NYT:

http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2012/11/02/us/politics/paths-to-the-white-house.html?smid=tw-share

yr eye is misleading you. difficult to judge areas (which is why pie charts are terrible.)

see http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2012/11/02/us/politics/paths-to-the-white-house.html. give florida to romney and ohio to obama.

ha xp

already way past 271 electoral votes in the proportional map. florida's 50-50 as far as polls go but very unlikely to be decisive as far as the electoral math goes.

Yeah Obama can get to 300+ w/o FL pretty easy. It'd just be icing on the cake.

intrade up to 71.5% potus

Thought you meant Prince's old drummer for a minute.

"No retreat, no surrender," sang rock icon Bruce Springsteen, warming up Obama's crowd on a frosty morning outside the State Capitol in Madison, Wis.

iirc, this was Mike Dukakis' rallying cry the day before the '88 election.

(also, Springsteen's "Kitty's Back" was written about Kitty Dukakis)

aero, today's princeton map should make u happier
