Barack Obama Retains US Presidency
Fox News, NBC, and CNN have called the U.S. election for incumbent Barack Obama. Of the so-called 'battleground states,' Obama carried Ohio, Iowa, Wisconsin, and New Hampshire, which, along with all of the solidly Democrat-leaning states, was enough to push him beyond the 270 required for victory. You can check this chart to see the full list of states that have currently been called, and by which news networks. The NY Times has an excellent interactive map showing all election results updated in real time, as does CNN. It's currently projected that the Republicans will retain control of the House of Representatives, and the Democrats will retain control of the Senate.
No more
Don't worry, Republican friends, Mitt will just claim he wasn't actually running for President anyway.
But really! I was expecting Slashdot to have this news tomorrow at the earliest!

Obama may not be perfect, but at least he doesn't wear magic underpants. I don't think america's reputation would recover if they handed control of their nuclear arsenal over to _that_ particular flavour of crazy.
Hey, don't knock magic undies. I traded an excellent sword for my +7 Knickers of Protection, Levitation, and Seduction.
Only problem is that they can only provide two benefits at a time, so I have to avoid some of the obvious things that come to mind.

Um, no. They can keep both of them and have Harper for free.
Oh well. I guess I'll go watch Fox News slip into a channel-wide suicidal depression.
I'm trying to teach myself to set people on fire with my mind... Is it hot in here?
Sorry Canuck, no hockey, no trades.

Also, to repeat it, for no apparent reason, 11 weeks from now.
I voted for Kodos.
Otherwise we'd never have been certain that 93% of people voted Obama and the other 88% voted Romney.
So we don't have to liberate you - for now...
Oh, the beautiful gloss of greality!
...that if the President unilaterally decides to have me secretly shot and disposed of, it will be a Democrat doing it and not a Republican.
This space available.
But the more crazy douchenozzle would have at least had some resistance from the democrats. But when you have a Democratic President going nuts with targeted assassinations (including of US citizens) no one complains since the Republicans love the idea anyway. If it was a Republican President at least the Democrats might make some noise about it.
This just in: Apple Maps shows Obama to take Chile.

they wouldn't have cared who won, either way they're fuckin' celebratin'! Pass the bowl!

AMONGST THE THINGS that differentiate America from the rest of the world are the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, an almost fanatical devotion to the gun, and continued insistence on paying lipservice to the notion of personal freedoms while simultaneously supporting politicians who erode them.... oh sod it, I'll come in again!
