It is a very fun day here in Wisconsin! Just take a look at the red/blue maps. Other than the blue moocher counties, the citizens of this state are having fun today.

You do understand, well, apparently you do not, that the blue states subsidize red states (follow the flow of tax dollars), and the blue areas of Wisconsin (and most states) generate a disproportionate amount of the wealth and tax revenues for a state. This is true in the vast majority of the country with such voting dynamics.

Please, before you vote again, do some reading/research. Being an informed voter is a good thing. It is red areas that general mooch from the blue areas which are the economic engines.

Being a con & being informed is an oxymoron......I probably just confused them w/that word, lol.

There are some well informed and smart economic conservatives. Except, they haven't really supported the RNC for awhile since Republicans don't promote sound economic conservatism, that ship sailed when the RNC made up trickle down economics which was rejected as not a sound economic ideology by economists on both sides of the spectrum.

Well I could go through life like a whiny, elitist, liberal complaining about the supposed immediate demise of America. Would that be better?

Actually what would be better is discussing substance. I don't think that is too much to ask. It apparently is with you. But maybe substance, facts, policies, their implications are all the realm of the elitists these days, and intellectual conversation is whining.

Oh the irony, as basically every post of yours has been just that.

You guys stunned the world, it ended up being really close in Minnesota too... but lets all hope for the best, lets all respect each other and don't let the personal attacks get to you... (people who call you ignorant and uneducated when you don't vote their way) ... people take losses different ways, they will get over it.

I've not seen this. What I have seen is people that are called this when they express ignorant (such a sexist or xenophobic) reasons for voting for a candidate, or they are completely unable to express why, with supporting information, why they voted for a particular candidate.

I've been reading your angry, hate filled comments on here for four years. Funny how you blame all your problems on white liberals and minorities but then criticize others for "sour grapes."
