F*ck you, we were a hell of a lot closer than any damn pundit ever predicted. We were never a swing state. We were always supposed to go red. Don't be a jerk, Dis.

Peter Jennings just explained that -- 4 electoral votes total -- 2 go to the pop vote winner of the state. The state is apparently split into 2 "regions" (or maybe they're called "districts"), and whichever candidate wins the region, he gets one of the remaining electoral votes. He said there was a possibility of Kerry getting all 4...

oh, did I mention on top of the food and alcohol coma I'm putting myself into, I'm chain smoking on top of it? ugh.

I can't believe North Carolina went for Bush. Dip****s.

(ETA- no offense, Merf. I'm from Kansas. We just re-elected Sam Brownback, the root of all evil. Dip****s.)

You people are obviously not paying attention.

WE ARE A RED STATE. WE WERE NEVER A SWING STATE. GET OFF THE NCSUX BANDWAGON. IT'S NOT FAIR AND IT SURE AS HELL AIN'T COOL.

I still love your home, Merf. It's a good state. Charlotte is the ****z for Nursing.

My frustration comes more from a general... eh. What's wrong with people that they see horrible unemployment numbers, a horrible economy- and want to stick with what put it there? It's just frustration. (and I had already edited my previous post while you were posting)

It was disspointing, but not surprising by any means.

I don't think Diss was blasting North Carolinians who didn't vote for Bush. Just the ones who still did, despite N.C.'s unemployment rate.

My friend, Louie, is in N.C., and I know he was working hard to get all of his Democrat friends out to vote, but many of his family and friends are Bush-Supporters. Still, every little bit helps!

I was going to suggest we try to keep this political thread civil, but civility and politics don't usually go together!
