Guest Post: "Be Not Afraid"
Sent by Tusk. What follows, until my update, is his:
I like to lower expectations. When I see a movie, I convince myself beforehand it'll suck. That way, if it does actually suck, I'm not too disappointed; if it's good, I'm pleasantly surprised. In this spirit, I've made myself visualize Hillary Clinton's victory speech daily for the past two weeks. Every triumphant, vengeful gleam in her eye; every note of the cackle unleashed; every shout; every smirk. It's already happened in my mind a dozen times. So if it actually happens tonight, it'll just be the thirteenth time I'm experiencing it. And familiarity breeds content. Many (including the Head Ewok) say that if we lose this election, it's Game Over. I respectfully disagree. If she wins, she comes into office with roughly the same field position as Nixon in January 1974. A bare majority of the country now thinks she's crooked; a significant majority has long thought she's generally untrustworthy and unlikeable. Even if she has a Democratic Senate, the worst-case scenario for her opponents is that they face an unpopular, uncharismatic President, without Obama's magic force-field. (Of course, the flip side is that if Trump wins, he also comes into office with less-than-ideal field position. But utopia ain't on the menu.) Will she take revenge on her deplorable, irredeemable enemies? She'll probably try. And if she does, we'll resist as best we can. But if she loses ... Oh boy. Oh ... boy. Be not afraid. Expect the worst, hope for the best. And vote. And get ten others to vote too. Then hug your loved ones extra-tight, pray (if that's your thing--otherwise just plain hope) that we do the least-worst thing as a nation, and sit back to watch the fireworks. See you on the other side.... Ace Back Again. Oddly enough, a friend called this morning with this exact same question -- what will be Hillary's caterwauled first line of her acceptance speech? This is the friend who observed that Hillary speaks like she's solving a puzzle on Wheel of Fortune: LITTLE... HOUSE... ON THE... PRAIRIE...! His guess was "That noise... you just... heard....? The sound of... the world's... tallest... glass ceiling... being... shattered...!" I told him I thought she already used that line at the Democrat National Convention. But in fairness, I could see her deploying it again. She has neurological issues. Her brain is all rotten garbage held together by L-Dopa and snakes.

How does Ryan play this on budget matters, and things like TPP. He may wind up working more with House Ds than his own party.
How does McConnell handle SCOTUS and high level administrative appointments?
No matter the outcome, the GOP has been changed. Over 70% of the primary vote went to outsiders.
The brand is different, and is acceptable to millions more brought into the fold. In time, this can include even more minorities.
The Ds are now the party of The Borg. The Rs are the party of People Who Work for a Living.
The #neverTrumpers have voted themselves off the island. The GOPe may too. Your move, Mr. Ryan.

...yeah, weird and unexpected things happen all the time -- usually when you least expect them.
So it's definitely possible that Trump wins. I think if he loses, it will be by a slimmer margin, than, say, McCain / Obama.
But even that is a guess. It depends whose polls you believe. I think averaging of polls also might take a hit this election cycle -- for example, NH has (from memory) Trump +5, Trump +1, Tie, Tie, Hillary +1, Hillary +11.... so RCP says "Hillary +1" or whatever the average is. Which is... I don't know, math would seem to say that you can't just average wildly divergent polls together and come to the truth.
One set of polls is most likely right(ish) and the other set is wrong(ish). We'll find out which is the case soon enough though.
But I think that that phenomena is why there are so many "toss up" states. Some are truly close like FL, but others it's like... errr, both numbers can't be right. Two polls taken in the same period can't come to Hillary +11 and Trump +5, and neither of them be very wrong.

It's quite another, I suspect, to see Hilary Clinton and Donald Trump's names on a ballot in a voting booth. And to think "four years of Hillary?"
That's why 3d party candidate support shrinks on Election Day compared to the polling results. No always, Perot being an example, but usually. I'll be interested to see how many votes Jill Stein gets.

I think that semi-passive resistance is the route to take in the years ahead if there is defeat here. We should find ways to undermine the government wherever we can, without putting ourselves on the line too far. Clog the system up, make nothing easy for them to implement. If they can't follow the law, why should the ordinary citizen do so, other than for self preservation? When self preservation isn't an issue, why not take a shot at the system, as they have for so long? Cloward-Piven the hell out of the bastards.

They're obviously inconsistent, including because they can be outside each others MOE. Averaging doesn't fix this, it just obscures the problem.
If these kinds of inconsistencies showed up in any other kind of statistical inquiry, you'd stop until you'd resolved it.

Women voting for Shrillary are making fools of the gender. It shows how absolutely clueless and shallow they are.

She'll probably try.
And if she does, we'll resist as best we can.

I will actively stop buying products from Democrat supporting firms, I'll avoid all businesses that support Democrats and, as God is my witness, I will go all 30 years of her presidency without watching her ONCE give a speech.
/why do I say 30 years? I'm pretty sure when she seizes out, they're going to chop off her head and re-animate it.

And what they can't get by EO, they'll force by non-defense of lawsuits (and no one will have standing to contest).
The only way to resist the courts is for the states to say "NO!"
And not another failure-theater lawsuit in the same rigged courts--actual resistance. Non-compliance. Non-enforcement.
And that way leads to war.
99% of us won't do shit to stop this. Because that means losing your job and, likely, your freedom. Are you prepared to give up a warm bed, hot meals, your spouse, your children, your family for, what, an idea called America?
Witness all the brave FBI agents who first-hand, intimately and in detail know the evil and corruption this woman embodies who put that idea above their obscene salary by resigning.
So, most of us are going to tell ourselves, "it's not that bad, could be worse" and other rationalizations to not do anything.

This is a theological point of view, mind. Christ will come to save Israel, because they are being overrun.
That always puzzled me: why would the whole world be fighting Israel, and with a powerful US, on the side of Israel, who would dare?
Obama or Hillary are not on the side of Israel. So, sadly, I think that the United States will destroy itself; leaving the world at the mercy of evil.
Pessimistic? Yes. The world was headed the same way in Carter's years, but Reagan gave the world it looks like about 30 years respite on evil winning out.
I don't think we'll get another reprieve like that. Our days of peace and happiness are pretty much about done, I fear.
Still: my call for SMOD is in reality a call for Jesus to return: same death and destruction, but only for the wicked. What's not to like?

Ted Cruz, never able to fully recover from the constitutional qualification issue raised by the questions about his mother's citizenship status at the time of his birth, spent a somber evening watching returns at his Houston residence, then retired for the evening without making a statement to the press.
However Republican Vice Presidential candidate John Kasich enthusiastically congratulated Mrs Clinton on her victory, and in reply to a question from reporters, said he was "Open and enthusiastic" about accepting a position in her cabinet if offered.

Standing in line at my polling place, there wasn't a southern accent to be heard. Happily, however, the local Republican club has more than a few northeastern conservatives. The local Democrat club has sparse membership. So our little island has that going for us.
The roads around the two major polling places (both churches) were thick with Trump signs. Not a Hillary sign anywhere.

I mean, I would be overjoyed if Trump pulls it out and wins -- not so much because of Trump, per se, but because of the gigantic fuck you to the media, establishment in DC, sanctimonious #nevertrumpers, and all of the other assholes out there.
I mean, basically -- Trump has made the right enemies. And I would love to see all of the wizards of smart be DEAD WRONG once again, and have to eat their own words.
Including that idiot professor who said he'd eat a bug if Trump wins. I really want someone to livestream him eating a cockroach.
That, my friends, is entertainment.
But, again, if he loses -- eh, oh well. That's kind of what I expect to happen.

The delivery van just came. The FNWG is of mixed race-black, white and hispanic. He asked me if I voted. I said "Uh, yeah..." but didn't want to say for whom I voted. He said "Hope you voted for Trump. I did. Bros before Hoes-hahaha."
I don't agree with his reasoning but at least he voted Trump.

The best we can hope for now is that the dictatorship will be relatively benign. I figure we've got that much for a few years. We are past the point, culturally, where the Republic can be restored. Very soon we'll be past that point legally as well.
Would that there were someplace we could go. Some new frontier. I'm probably too old and not tough enough to make that work for myself, but maybe at least someone would be able to make a go of it.

But if she starts in with being "historic!" I think I have to say goodbye. She knows what my family has gone through as State dips, and should know that FAB is not just incompetent but evil.

The GOPe will be just as feckless for a Hillary administration, so that's a wash.
She may not be as charismatic, but it doesn't matter. The media has dropped all pretense of objectivity, and most people only see what the media shows. While news and MSM power is down, television and other entertainment will present Hillary as human and caring.
The economy does poorly during her administration? So what? It never hurt Obama...she'll blame Republicans, the media will say everything's fine...
And reelection will be a breeze with millions of newly minted citizens!

I lived in DC for a little over a year after getting married, before we moved out to find better schools for the kids. The city government has a rule that a couple of seats on the Council are reserved for GOP and/or independent members. In practice that meant that ambitious politicians who didn't want to come up the hard way through the Democrat ranks would register as independents and campaign exactly as the Democrats did.
Colorado could go red again. But the district I live in won't.

I just got back from voting here (9:30AM) in the SF-San Jose area of Commiefornia.
My precinct shares a polling location with another precinct. Both precincts have voting machines and 4 paper ballot stations. Neither precinct had a line, but my precinct 3 people currently voting, and 2 show up after I signed in. The other precinct had 2 people voting, I think.
This is slightly more people than usual, but this early in the morning, it means little.
However, over the last 6 months, I've seen only local political messages: signs, bumper stickers, mailers; the only national things I've seen are 2 Hillary bumper stickers. It looks like very many people are keeping quiet on politics.
I think this favors Trump, as the radicals are usually act out.
I do not think Trump will win CA, but I think he will get 270+ EVs.
I'll walk past the area again around 4:00PM, and again around 6:00PM, to see what the final turnout looks like.

Even the Hildabeast cannot, ultimately, win against Him even if she pulls off a win in the election.
Have Strong Hearts and go forth in confidence! I have been doing that today and already helped two people at work fill out practice ballots who now will go vote whereas they were unsure if they would or not. Now my vote has been multiplied by three... totally legally. Take that Dems!

Romney did not have anywhere near the energy and enthusiasm Trump has.
But he made up for it with an aura of aloofness and disdain for the voters.

No, the truth was their new bosses wanted them to go in a new direction politically, and their old commenters were definitely not of the same mindset. So instead of banning everyone, they went to a commenting section that they suspected or knew most of their regulars would not switch over to (Facebook), in the hopes of bringing in new commenters.
Because they made the mistake of thinking their success was from the brilliance of their writers, not their commenters who refresh the page all day and get eyeballs on ads all day.
I think / hope it backfired on them bigly. Because it was a huge fuck you to the people who made their site a success.

Good question. Trump and Clinton's weed policies are identical. Young men of color are just not too keen on voting for women in general, from what I hear. And this guy is also worried about his 2nd amendment rights, he mentioned that.

My mother always said, you can attract more flies with honey than with vinegar.
This is an excellent article from Canada on how their Conservative Party built bridges to immigrant/minority populations.
http://www.macleans.ca/news/canada/welcome-to-my-world/
They gave a guy the job to do outreach, and he does it. Along the way he figures out small ways to pass laws or change regs that they can agree on. It's small stuff, but listening to people's concerns can begin to build bridges. That's the point, I think; not a wholesale change in policy or belief to win a group's affections, but making an effort to listen and act in small ways that show you were paying attention, and that don't compromise your core.

We all agree he has great judgement in hiring people, and we all like the list of SC candidates he's proposed.
Health Care plan, Tax plan, Military plan, etc. get either mixed or "don't really give a shit" viewpoints.
It's mostly about the choices he's made in who he surrounds himself with. When you get to be older, who you select to mingle with and listen to makes a big difference.

Actually, no. A lot of them think Clinton 42 was a pretty good President, who figured out what he was doing, propped up Greenspan's stock market, and was done the dirty by an overzealous persecution that should have never gotten off the ground. They might have thought him a moral midget but all in all not a bad President.
But the AARP crowd DOES remember Nixon, and can reasonably assess the seriousness of what the media wants Hillary to get away with vs what got Nixon onto Marine One and gone.

Romney sucked. WSJ and NR nauseatingly started pushing his snide sorry ass in 2005. I think their opposition to Trump is largely based on the fact that the guy they backed lost in a landslide. Like the psycho controlling spouse--if I can't have you, nobody can kind of thinking. Romney vs Obama was an election between two guys in Wall Street pockets who viewed blue collar workers as serfs. Romney was arguably worse because of his stance to let Detroit automakers fail. 47% speech showed who he is, and it ain't pretty.

I have been hoping that Bernie supporters would vote either Trump or 3rd party, but I fear too many of them will vote for Hill at the last moment because Trump is raaaaacccist. And I also fear that Comey's all-clear on Sunday will give people who were wavering the idea that "See? She's innocent! She's been cleared by the FBI twice now!"

Trust me, it does suck. Forty years ago NE liberals starting moving to CA, when it was still conservative, and now ... here we are.
They ARE like locusts. And now I hear liberals here talk about fleeing to some other state, invariably a more conservative one (AZ at the top of the list).

On the way home from voting I pushed the radio button for the out of town station playing Beck's show. First thing I heard was his plea for comprehensive immigration reform.
I then pushed the button which gave me Laura Ingraham.

Election judges in Clinton Township, Butler County confirmed there were issues with two of their eight automated voting machines. Most of the issues came when people tried to vote straight party ticket.
However, other said they specifically wanted to vote for Republican Donald Trump only to see their vote switched before their eyes to Democrat Hillary Clinton.
"I went back, pressed Trump again. Three times I did this, so then I called one of the women that were working the polls over. And she said you must be doing it wrong. She did it three times and it defaulted to Hillary every time," Bobbie Lee Hawranko said.

I have been undecided all election, because I don't want to vote either major candidate and I don't want to vote third party.
Anecdotally, I know one person who usually votes republican who voted for Johnson, and I know that our early voting is insanely high, records I think. But I haven't seen a poll yet! (It could be people just wanted to vote for medical marijuana, though. )

Also, there are pot cookies that are *8* doses, so people have nibbled 1/8, not felt anything (because it takes time to kick in), then keep on eating more to get a buzz - then end up in the ER or worse, such as jumping out a window; total freakout.

I like the way they make you recite your full name and address after they take your photo ID.
Every little bit helps. Also, I always vote NO "for the children" since I know it's really for the teachers, and fuck them. Yeah, I know some are good, but the union sucks dick. NO to the roads (this place is changing too fast already). YES to fire and rescue, YES to amending the state constitution as right-to-work.
And Barbara Comstock, I told you I wouldn't vote for you because you called for the pussy-grabber to drop out, but I was feeling charitable today. God told me to mellow out a little.

...er. Well, I 'spose it's possible to mistake a pot cookie for a regular cookie, but most people who buy $25 pot cookies probably aren't casually leaving them around.
As for people ending up in the ER... there is no deadly dosage of marijuana. You could eat 100 doses of marijuana with no ill effect other than feeling like you wanted to take a nap. And maybe some paranoia, which is why I suspect people might go to the hospital. but there's nothing they can do at the hospital other than give you an IV and tell you to take a nap.

As of this hour (well before the results have started to pour in), I have begun to imagine that god-awful witch reveling in her president-elect status.
I really think that will help reduce what is sure to be a ghastly sting.
For what it's worth, my liberal girlfriend only begrudgingly voted for the Hildabeast. (She really doesn't like nor trust Hillary. But she feels morally obligated to vote against Trump.)

You are in bluebell's and my neck of the woods. I'm with you on the No for children, since over 85% of the FFX school system budget already goes for salaries, and less than 3% goes to the kids. (10% for infrastructure, 2-3 percent for school buses and salaries-those aren't counted in the 85%. That's just administrators, teachers, aides and janitors.) I'm hacked at Comstock, but I'll be danged if I'm letting a carpetbagger win a seat in Virginia.

That's the type of voting machine I used this morning. Mine looked OK, though. I watched very carefully when I pushed the green button to complete voting. The lights didn't change.
In the example shown, you would have to press the Clinton button again to make the light go out, then press the Trump button. You can't have both lights lit at the same time.

What would that solve?
If they bought the weed legally, brought it home, distilled it with alcohol, went through all the effort to turn it in to butter, then cooked with it... you'd still end up with cookies or brownies that could be mistaken for non-pot cookies and brownies, no?
It just seems like a weird argument to me. I mean, I get it -- kids should be ingesting alcohol, caffeine, nicotine, THC, whatever. But isn't that more about good parenting then anything else?
I don't know. It seems like largely a non issue. The risk has always been there -- pot brownies have existed forever, there does not seem to be a rash of kids being accidentally exposed to THC.
Either way, "for the children" is always a weak argument to me.

Rhode Island is a medical marijuana state. But it is still a controlled substance and sharing it with kids is every bit as illegal as sharing alcohol which can also cause kids to freak out.
I was actually a kid once and never had a bit of trouble getting my hands on weed. Illegal weed. And we made stellar weed brownies. I'm told it's still pretty damn easy for kids to get illegal weed.
A lot of the freakout over weed reminds me of the silly movies they used to show when I was a kid about Demon Marijuana!

I don't smoke weed because I get anxiety and paranoia. Something like 25% of the adult population does. Regardless of the strain, strength, or amount smoked. Most of us just don't smoke weed.

Very easy, ask the precinct judge. They have the totals of early voting and you just add the number for today. You find that on the little paper ballot they give you to sign, upper right corner. Last ballot is the running total.
Or just ask them. It's not a secret. My precinct is the highest voting precinct in Meck county. We'll vote over 85% probably. Old rich white guys, with a mix of limousine liberals, Eastover School.

Like I said, certain % of the population has negative (mental) effects from smoking weed. As in, they don't like it. Makes them anxious. Or paranoid.
But it's medically impossible to overdose on marijuana. It's one of the only drugs that that is true for.
If some kid had a mental breakdown and jumped out a window -- I mean, could you blame the weed? I guess. In the same way you can blame the alcohol for when people kill themselves. It could be a contributing factor I guess, but normal, non-suicidal people don't get high (or drunk) and kill themselves.

This is another one of those strawmen.
The strains of weed available today and more... available, and more crossbred. But they existed back in the '70s. But in the '70s people used to smoke several joints of shit mexican brick weed to get high, now people smoke 1/10th the amount to get high because they have access to less shitty weed.
It's like saying "people can get more drunk faster from craft beers then they could from bud light back in the '70s, so craft beers should be illegal."
I mean ... ??

Oh, and for anyone else who also seeks to take Tusk's advice:
I have started vividly imagining the Fox News radio and cable clips where they regularly report on president-elect Clinton's public statements about how she will coordinate with the outgoing Obama administration to effect the smoothest possible transition.
- Need to start early on normalizing this rancid shit.

From what I understand, and I'm only going by what I've heard. It's a much stronger drug if you eat it as opposed to smoking it. Again, I have no idea if this is true. I haven't smoked the wacky weed since right after high school, you know when I became interested in making money.

having taken the time to read the envelope, it says right on it that i can drop them off at any polling place today, so i'm off to my neighbor's garage, red shirt and all.

However, I believe our "opposition" party would be almost as feckless with Hilary as Obama. I suspect there have already been GOPe meetings where discussions were along the lines of, "She'll put forth a crazy gun confiscation plan, claiming a mandate, which she knows won't pass. We'll squawk, and she'll moderate it just a bit, and we'll get to claim a partial win. And in return, we'll back 90% of her amnesty plans (which we want anyway), and we'll tell the rubes we got the important concessions and they simply have to accept the new reality and get with the new global world."
Anyone think differently about the broad strokes?

Kids, Harry. There have already been instances of kids being poisoned by MJ candies or brownies in CO.
"Medical" MJ is a scam, IMHO. The only disease it has been clinically proven to cure is lackachoom.

county, is very low, but Franklin County, another dem county, has very
high numbers for early voting. Is there a tea leaf here? Anyone know
what's different about these counties?
Franklin County (Columbus - large minority pop) is experiencing a large turnout. BUT, Deleware and Licking counties (the white 'burbs) are showing huge turnouts - I'm talking lines around the building yugge.
