ALL 3 cable news stations are showing OBAMA live!

CNN, FUX RUSE, and MSNBC! When is the last time that happened? He is knocking it out of the ballpark! All of his accomplishments and all the GOP LIES (he used that word). And he is being OPTIMISTIC!

But it’s on Shep’s show the only sane and truthful show on Fox.

There are so many close races that we may not know the results of a lot of the races for several days. I don't know how I will get through it with out my little dog to hug....unofficial emotional support animal!

I did take Wednesday off from work knowing it was going to be a late night but I really hope there aren't enough outstanding races where control is an open question. My kitties are only 12 weeks and haven't experienced an election night with me. The pacing. The swearing. The laughing and crying. I cried for hours when Pres Obama was officially the winner. No tears in 2016 though. Was pissed and went to bed early. The cats will be a good distraction. Support animals indeed.

so I know things will be up in the air for a while in some districts. Do you remember Bush and Gore and that fiasco? Talk about waiting, biting nails and drinking too much ...I am surprised my dog had any hair left after that. This is a different dog to rub the hair off of as I wait for the results.

My first vote for President was for Carrter in 1980 and come from a politically active family. Tuesday is going to be very stressful.

I should have known then that it was the beginning of a life filled with GOP cheating, lying and stealing election wins. Reagun set up the hostage release so that it would happen when he was going to be the president and he would be the hero...it was totally scripted, political theater. He was an actor too don't forget. In CA we got a loser like Arnold who screwed up the state budget and now we have another actor/TV reality con man for the whole country. I vote for NO MORE ACTORS or pseudo actors in politics anymore!

Republicans whine and rail against thee elite and Hollywood but are the same ones that are enthralled with celebrity. I thought much of donnies appeal was that he was the only celebrity many of these "middle American" will ever get close to and feel part of their lives. They actually think Donnie gives a crap about them. He takes advantage of that ridiculous notion as all NYers know he only cares about himself and will use anyone to his own ends and then will crap all over them. You and I are virtually the same age..I don't remember ever feeling the opposition was my enemy, I had republican friends...it's not like that anymore. It's a dark time for Americans. It's up to us to make sure we get out of this hole.

voted for the moron. Anyone with common sense could spot he is a racist conman with their eyes and ears closed. The only New Yorkers who like him are the super rich who benefited from his tax cuts. Now we all suffer due to the ignorance and racist hate of his deplorables.

Everytime he gives a speech, I'm in tears. We had no idea how good we had it. I'll have to look it up later and also look up Oprah's from yesterday which got rave reviews.

President Obama in Action.. the "media" thinks it's important enough and ratings enough to show it all.

And, it's Pissing OFF the Fraud in the oval office.

I've read the transcript of this many times, and it's appalling. But to actually see and hear him saying it for the first time... I have no words.

What the fuck did you do, America?

He is such a master at getting the crowd behind him...in a good way. None of the ugly rhetoric used by tRump. It was inspiring and had me cheering like the crowd.

I was totally surprised they covered the whole thing!

During the general election the media had their cameras fixed on Trump's empty podium while Bernie spoke to 28,000 people. Better late than never.
