Tonight, in this election, you, the American people, reminded us that while our road has been hard, while our journey has been long, we have picked ourselves up, we have fought our way back, and we know in our hearts that for the United States of America, the best is yet to come.

Barricades blocking a Pennsylvania election precinct: “NO PARKING FOR DEMOCRATS - WALK THAT WILL BE THE MOST WORK YOU DO ALL DAY.” Full story here.
What do republicans have against proper punctuation, for fuck’s sake? They probably think it makes you gay.

Hi Tumblr, it’s me, a slightly older person…
I see a lot of you 20 somethings saying things about how you aren’t going to choose the lesser of two evils and that their policy on important matters are identical so what’s the point they’re both stooges for Wall Street and the Industrial War Complex.
You are right. Kind of.
I know y’all LOVE the 90’s. Me too. And I remember after after eight years of Clinton/Gore, I thought those motherfuckers were the devil. I was soooooooooooo upset with Bill Clinton waving his deregulation wand and his fucked foreign policy that I was all FUCK THE DEMOCRATS and I strongly advocated for Raplh Nader, even though he too didn’t really care about my “gonad politics.” Even when not choosing between the “lesser of two evils,” I was STILL having to compromise major issues.
Having been an adult person through 8 years of Clinton/Gore and 8 years through Bush/Cheney, I can tell you without a shred of hesitation that I will line up like my ass is on fire to vote for the lesser of two evils because the greater of two evils almost had us all living outside and eating dog food.
And if you think that a Romney presidency won’t be worse than Bush/Cheney, you are out of your mind.
I am fucking begging all of you, please, go vote. Aside from the fact that far more dangerous things are happening on your local level, (like collective bargaining being taken away in Illinois) this shit does matter.
If you think voting for Obama is the lesser of two evils, you’re wrong, it’s the lesser of three because not voting IS voting for Romney. Not voting is voting for dickbag judges that sentence people to jail in counties that have privatized prisons for minor drug infractions. Not voting is voting to remove pensions and collective bargaining and the last shreds of union power from the people. Not voting this election is voting for Feudalism.
Go vote.
Now pardon me, there’s some damn kids on my lawn and they want candy.
Bold emphasis is placed by me.
Ugh. Yes. Please. Please fucking vote.

"Sometime after the cock crows on the morning of Nov. 7, Mitt Romney will be declared America’s 45th president."

I have a cock that crows in the morning so I’m gonna fact check him on this one.
(via apsies)
isn’t the race usually determined many, many hours before that? i mean, i was still awake four years ago when obama was declared the winner of that election. why does karl rove think it’s going to take so damn long?

You don’t remember 2000? It takes a lot longer to steal an election than it does to win one.

“These are not just women’s issues. These are family issues.”
One of the most important differences heard tonight.
Last night’s debate in one GIF.
Very proud of my binder full of women this morning. (Especially Chanelle, who made this GIF.) It was actually an awesome team bonding experience to work our way through the nonsense Romney said about women.
I’ll be on The Young Turks on Current TV tonight at 7E/4P talking more about all the ladies on the internet who so quickly fact-checked that ridiculousness.
