Nice name.

Natter 62: The 62nd Natter
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
This election night photo brought me to tears yet again.
I think it sounds nuts but it still hasn't quite sunk in for me. Pictures like this choke me up and make me realize that BARACK OBAMA WON.
I didn't even realize Natter was just about to end. I think my brain is fried.
That was one of the most stealthy approaches to 10,000 I've ever seen.
Nice name.
It was a mandate from the people.
Err, at least two people.
I think Gud is right. The Electoral vote was a blow-out but popular vote nsm and the economy is not going to bounce back fast. People have short memories and like to blame, so I don't think the GOP is in all that bad of shape. I do, however, think that they will hurt rather than help themselves if the leadership of the party tries to cater to the Palin base. I think that base is a shrinking pot in America.

That did it for me too, Cash.
Ooohh! shiny!
21! Drinks are on me!
I am not giving up the schadenfreude. It's about the only thing that's kept me going the last eight years.
We has so much to talk about that we didn't even notice how close to the end that thread was.
From the previous thread:
The point where I started rooting for Obama instead of just the Democratic party was his speech in response to the Rev. Wright imbroglio. That was masterful and really gave me a better sense of who he was, and how he would govern.
I think the thing that sold me lock, stock and barrel on Obama was his "half time locker room" speech he gave to his staff in Chicago the day after accepting the nomination. The theme of the speech was "we've made it this far by promising things to people in tough situations. Guess what? Now we have to win."
It was incredible.
