Who are you watching for your election night coverage?

[atlcomedy]

Will you watch?

I recently read an article about the coverage that said that elcetion night is to new organizations what the Superbowl is to advertisers...that is time to trot out all their best stuff and fancy new gizmos. After scaling back air time is the last few years, networks are going all out after getting bested by the cable news channels

I'll flip back and forth for updates...but I don't need a play by play. I'd rather watch reruns of ice skating than their minute by minute updates.

Yeah, I am very interested but I plan to track online. Watching an evening of coverage would be too painful for me. Listening to the "analysts" (of any political stripe) is just too much

There are two new episodes of the WSOP on tonight. I'll catch the returns later.

[WTF]

I was watching "Mr and Mrs Smith'' love that movie. They act about like our political parties do, married and joined at the hip and trying to kill each other.

Surfing the different news networks to get the different spins. Will read the BBC and Economist web sites tomorrow to find out what really happened.

Fox, the National Socialist Network, of course.

It's sad day for America. Oh, well, one step forward, three steps back.

Doesn't matter who you watch, sad results are the same.

Damn! I was hoping to get an even bigger blowout.

Heh

Why? You invested in the Defense industry? Medicare reverting back to how it was? So that would mean my next question would be " Why, are you invested in the Healthcare?"

As RK would say, when you give to one segment, you are taking from another. Well he does not say it exactly like that but you get my drift.

If you think there are going to be any overall spending cuts you might stll think Bernie Madoff if the man to invest your retirement savings with!

The Tea Folks do not want to cut Defense or touch SS. So really, what else is there?

Now nothing will get done for 2 years. It'll be a stalemate in the Congress.

You say that like it is a bad thing.

I was at least hoping to put the economy that Bush destroyed in his 8 years back on track. Now, no one will get jobs. And it will rest entirely on the conservative/libertarian's shoulders.

Obama only got 1/4 the time to fix what Bush had done in 8 years. Only God could have fixed the economy in that time (and that's because God's time is not our time). Yes, it is a bad thing.

Here is your first clue Chucky -- governments don't create jobs. The best they can do is stay out of the way of people creating jobs. That's what Obama didn't do and why this recession is not recovering.

Hallelujah! Lets hear it for divided government.
