Aaargh! Paul Ryan's home state!
I put little faith in this, Fox news has 12% counted, 53% Romney, 46% Obama, yet are still calling Wisconsin for Obama?
Too early to tell in my opinion.
Yeah, I don't get that either:
Wisconsin (10) Closed * 14% Obama 46% 193,496 Romney 53% 222,649
It is hard to swallow but they are usually pretty close on the calls. The precincts that are still out are those that always go socialist party.

I feel like going back to my hometown Tampa and smaking everyone of my friends who did not vote. Or at least give them an ear full for their apathy. I thought there would be no way Florida would be this close again.

I really want to vomit.
I have friends on Facebook from the old school days, they think like me/us, but here are comments from their younger 40 YO siblings who are voting for O.
"I voted for him because I believe in him and one thing that my family got from him over the past 4 years is health insurance. And that has saved my husband :)
"
"If we hadn't had Obama, we would still have Bin Laden to worry about, and we might be gonners if he'd gotten the chance to attack America again. I think them searching for him held him back. I don't have insurance Trish and would like to have it. Is his with his work? I'm counting on his insurance policy coming in a couple of years"
These are WHITE women from North Texas.

It appears we have become a country of people most interested in what kind of stuff they can get for free.

I'm going to bed before I vomit. If I wake up to a second term I will have lost faith in the future of our country.

Doesn't look like Florida will be called until all votes are tabulated; probably wee hours tomorrow. Ohio has had issues with absentee ballots and it might be as long as 10 days before all votes can be counted there. If one of the other goes to Obama--or a couple of the remaining swing states--the deal is probably done and an extended recount/challenge may not be mounted.
And Elizabeth Warren was just called over Republican Scott Brown in the Senate for Romney's home state, Massachusetts. That's another pick-up for the Dems in the Senate.
