Obama grandma's death is a bad omen. Many people in the medical field believe there's a psychosomatic mechanism of sheer willpower that keeps terminally ill patients alive until they reach a significant moment in their lives, whether it be the marriage of a granddaughter or even just one final Christmas with the family. The fact that grandma passed away on the eve of the election means there might not be good news tomorrow...

Yeah, but those same people in the medical field don't believe in psychic powers either.

 

[VictimOfGrief]

Don't worry, guys.

The Steelers got this.

:lol Doubtful, this first quarter looks terrible for steelers.

You gotta be kidding me :lol

 

[The Librarian]

Don't you have homework to do, young man?

No. I'm off today and tomorrow. And any homework I needed to do is already done.

I'm all set.

Due to my alarm being set to a country station so I get out of bed to turn it off, replace "daddy" with "grandma".

Or maybe she knew that her grandson would win so she didn't have to hold on any longer.

 

[Danthrax]

McCain's opening on tonight's SNL special just won my vote. Sorry guys

 

[Tobor]

You're better than I was. I would have blown it off.

 

[Red Scarlet]

...I think I'm going to be locked away for a long time...

May as well steal as much I can.

 

[Tobor]

Are you accusing Nate Silver of killing Obama's Grandma?

 

[XMonkey]

Or maybe she knew that her grandson would win so she didn't have to hold on any longer.

And she wanted a better seat

 

[Keylime]

May as well steal as much I can.

There's some snark remark in here somewhere about Steelers, your stealing and the Redskins...but I'm not in the frame of mind to make it.

Instead I will quietly weep for:

• My Steelers
• My impending GAF field trip

 

[thekad]

Wow, are these people really insinuating what they're insinuating about Obama's grandma?

That he killed her with his bare hands? Yes, that's what some are insinuating.

 

[Saint Gregory]

McCain's opening on tonight's SNL special just won my vote. Sorry guys

He's on again? Doesn't he have anything better to do?

That he killed her with his bare hands? Yes, that's what some are insinuating.

Don't forget that he silenced her because she was going to reveal his Kenyan birth certificate in a press conference tomorrow. Loons.

 

[Keylime]

Mmmm Wright commercials during MNF.

Last minute flailing is annoying.

 

[SpeedingUptoStop]

Latest polling numbers are in, guys. I just sent a text to everyone in my phonebook telling them to "get out and vote tomorrow, get everyone you know to vote! AMERICA FUCK YEA". Here are the results of exit polling:

"k"

"I'm Not Voting" (Too young, I think)

"lol. I'm driving people to the polls all day tomorrow."

"Damn straight. Obama 08!!!" (Hey, that rhymes)

15 people have yet to respond.

 

[Shard]

You are telling me, those Rev. Wright commercials have been airing all day.

For those that don't respond, go the the places in which they dwell, and threaten them to vote.

Make sure to take a butcher knife with you. It'll help to persuade them.

 

[SpeedingUptoStop]

Knowing my friends, most of them already voted absentee.


Plus, I can't be bothered to drive all over the state threatening people, I gotta vote in the morning!

 

[Jack Scofield]

Obama's not airing any commercials anymore? Only McCain?

 

[Danthrax]

He's on again? Doesn't he have anything better to do?

He just was, yes. And no, he has nothing better to do. I mean c'mon, is he gonna hold a rally in Florida at 9 p.m.? All the old folks down there are in bed by then :lol

Some bastard took the white signs I never got to grab, either. So that pisses me off! What assholes.

 

[Shard]

Why does a Knight Rider remake exist?

 

[voodoojohn]

http://www.slate.com/id/2203619/

Great article by Christopher Hitchens on McCain's smearing of Khalidi..

SNAP.

 

[SpeedingUptoStop]

Why does a Knight Rider remake exist?

To prove how uncharismatic a lead actor can possibly be.

 

[Souldriver]

Obama's not airing any commercials anymore? Only McCain?

Yeah, with all the money Obama swims in, you'd think they'd air a final "go out to vote and make history" kinda commercial everywhere.

 

[BobLoblaw]

Why does a Knight Rider remake exist?

To get to the other side?

 

[Keylime]

He just was, yes. And no, he has nothing better to do. I mean c'mon, is he gonna hold a rally in Florida at 9 p.m.? All the old folks down there are in bed by then :lol

A rally in Arizona at 2AM.... TWO AYE EM!!!

This man is just crazy.

 

[Yaweee]

Wow, are these people really insinuating what they're insinuating about Obama's grandma?

And also that they void her absentee ballot.

:lol :lol :lol

 

[DarienA]

I'm so nervous... look I don't expect Obama to change everything, fix everything... but what a statement to ourselves as a people, and to the world as a nation IMO if we elect Obama..... I'm actually going to work from home tomorrow so I don't have to deal with traffic. Polling place is school that's just a few minutes from here.

 

[Keylime]

As long as you've still got your Obama poster hanging out your window it's all good.

 

[Stinkles]

It's Tuesday where I am, and yet there are still no early results!!!1 Also, no sign of the lottery numbers for yesterday. WTF

 

[TheGrayGhost]

Obama taking a brutal blow in the early polling.

Washington: 3
Pittsburgh: 0

It's still early, but this initial polling data is concerning.

Just logged back on, please clarify, I'm about to have a heart attack.

 

[Tamanon]

Obama's not airing any commercials anymore? Only McCain?

He stopped yesterday. I remember seeing the Bush in the rear view mirror yesterday, but really once you get this close to election day, commercials only really work on an insignificant number of folks.

 

[Souldriver]

Some superstition about the football winner deciding which political party will win, or something like that.

It's retarded.

 

[Jack Scofield]

Just logged back on, please clarify, I'm about to have a heart attack.

It's an old superstition about the Washington Redskins (the football team). If they win, superstition says that the incumbent party wins the election. As of right now the Redskins are leading 6-0.

 

[Shard]

Okay, Sarah Plain's voice is like a thousand fiery daggers slicing the eardrums.

 

[Zerachiel]

Yeah, how dare the librul elite MSM go after Sam the Unemployed like that!

Whenever I see MSM, I flashback to all those epidemiology reports I read about AIDS (MSM = "men who have sex with men" in that literature- "gay" isn't considered accurate since a lot of them are on the down-low and don't consider themselves gay. Anyway, it makes that post a lot more entertaining!)

 

[EvilMario]

Biggest news out of the Obama MNF interview. He supports a college football playoff! <3

He's too perfect. <3

 

[Fragamemnon]

Okay, Sarah Plain's voice is like a thousand fiery daggers slicing the eardrums.

I got about three minutes through the RNC speech before never being able to hear her voice again. Sarah Palin = mute or fast forward button, it's like hearing nails screech across a chalkboard.

 

[soul creator]

lol @ Rachel mocking Obama's ground game

 

[Zerachiel]

What does that mean?

Supposedly, if the Redskins win their most recent home game, the incumbent party wins the election. If they lose, the challengers win.

Kerry proved this superstition wrong, though. Although it should be mentioned that it's been right every other year since 1936.

 

[The Lamonster]

Holy shit, Rachel Maddow is depressing me.

 

[Saint Gregory]

The Redskin's defense is killing Obama right now. Lay down for the good of the country Skins!!!

Supposedly, if the Redskins win their most recent home game, the incumbent party wins the election. If they lose, the challengers win.

Kerry proved this superstition wrong, though.

I don't know, after reading that MTV article about Ohio I think it's more likely that Bush fiddled with the superstition.

 

[bgassassin]

Yeah, but some forget that Bush broke that trend last election.

EDIT: Beaten

 

[PROOP]

Each number is a marker of progress. Whichever city has the higher count will reach victory at the end of the 60 minutes of regulation.

In the event of a tie, there is a coinflip to see who gets possession in overtime, sudden death.

For anyone scratching their heads at this, historically speaking, if the redskins win their game before the election, the incumbant party wins, and if they lose vice versa.

However, last election Washington Redskins lost, and for the first time, did not predict the winner of the election. The curse is broken. Don't jinx this shit.

 

[typhonsentra]

Why's there a McCain/Palin banner ad that's just a picture of McCain and Lieberman? :lol

 

[The Librarian]

Holy shit, Rachel Maddow is depressing me.

Why? I'm not watching it right now.

 

[sangreal]

Why? I'm not watching it right now.

She is a concern troll. She deserves the Chicken Little tag
