They are going to have to lock the cops thread as well. Inner city Dems aren't used to not getting their way.

I'm genuinely fucking floored. I wasn't super confident about HRC but this kind of feels like waking up to find you've crashed through the looking glass.

A lot of the Australian channels are doing live coverage. Without the need for having reps from each party it's interesting watching how genuinely shocked and flat the combo of journalists, political analysts and public personalities they have wheeled out for this thing all are. Definitely a sense of disbelief that this is possible.

1 - Denial
2 - Anger
3 - Bargaining
4 - Depression
5 - Acceptance

I am somewhere between steps 3 and 4 at this point

The coverage in Canada is pretty similar. Very morose.

I gotta admit that watching these Manhattanite newscasters shock at the midwesterners not knowing their place is somewhat offsetting my concern about where we go as a nation from here.

Results starting to come in for Nevada; Vegas (Clark County) is all that matters, really, with 2/3 of the state's population.

Even if HRC wins, this is still depressing.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Fox just projected Ron Johnson to re-election in the Senate in WI. That would be pretty much a death knell to Dems' hopes of regaining the Senate.
