Election night. I know you're not all watching.

You took my poll:



And alan markus said:
I will be watching the discussion here - much more interesting than what any talking heads on TV will have to say.
And I said:
Hey, good point! I should have provided that option: I will be hanging out on Althouse and seeing whatever is visible from this vantage point.
The option wasn't available on the poll, but it's available right now. Hang out here and watch with me. I know we can't all get what we want, but if what you want is company and conversation, you can get that here.  My vote is secret, and I'm sympathetic to everyone's feelings.

"There is no possible good outcome. There is only bad and very slightly less bad."

I respectfully dissent.

If Trump wins, a lot of bad lefties and media phonies will suffer catatonic injury to their collective psyche - (i.e., the political round table on CNN , Harry Reid, La Raza)

That is a good outcome, in my book

Howard म्हणाले...

It will be over early. InfoWars is reporting that Podesta got 500,000 illegals and 200,000 dead retirees to put Hillary over the top.

Bleach Drinkers Curing Coronavirus Together म्हणाले...

I'll take the Althouse option also. I know I don't always give you enough credit for hosting a forum like this.

As for the talking heads, they are indeed worthless.

Bleach Drinkers Curing Coronavirus Together म्हणाले...

Nonsense. Any third party that exceeds 5% of the popular vote is eligible for federal funds and the power to grow its base to a point of perhaps even getting a place at the debates. Breaking the two-party duopoly is the most important priority now and the third parties have a greater shot at expanding their power and share of the electorate this year than ever before.

Even if they don't, it gives them much more power to force the two parties to co-opt their agendas. It's a definite win.

If I'm going anywhere, it'll be here or Drudge.

Four years ago, I was in a newsroom listening to CNN while editing copy. I can't tell you how happy I am this time around, editing my wife's book and listening to mashups. Later this evening, my wife and I will be on the couch watching Captain America: Civil War.

It's a good life.

Prediction: If Trump wins, we may be pleasantly surprised. The media's heads will collectively explode. That and the Rolling Stone verdict will inspire a lot of head-scratching. A few of them might even learn something from it.

If Hillary wins, expect the economy to still head south (more part-time and government jobs, fewer full-time jobs), Obamacare to collapse and be replaced with single-payer, open borders, and a flash war in Syria against Russia.

Bleach Drinkers Curing Coronavirus Together म्हणाले...

If the Libertarians get over 5%, will they accept public funding?

If they're smart they would. There's no point changing the system if you refuse on purely symbolic grounds to work within it in order to do it.

But then again, maybe their purity and theories are more important than the reality of what they'd like to do.

It's definitely a question for them to answer, not me.

Freeman Hunt म्हणाले...

Why would a libertarian-ish Republican want the Libertarians to become a strong party?

Never.

I don't understand why you won't say who you voted for Ann. Are you contemplating another career in the media? What is the rationale for not saying? My guess was going to be Trump, but I really do not know.

bagoh20 म्हणाले...

Everybody has at least one enemy on each side who is desperate for either a Trump or a Hillary win, so just imagine that person and how unhappy they are at the results. That should make your own pain much better, and give you great satisfaction. God Bless America!

Anyone who's smart will do their damnedest to find a way to make that work for them after tonight.

Tonight doesn't mean all that much. What is most important is finding a way to pressure President Hillary to be less of a tyrant. Or President Trump to be less of a moron.

Of course people like horse races so I have every confidence that they will forget about the importance of these priorities after tonight. They will wake up in a year asking credulously how President 2016 Disaster just got away with the newest abomination.

Both of these primitives will need immense pressure to do anything resembling the right thing. And with healthy threat of censure and/or impeachment every other day.

A story worth your blogging, Althouse; this viral thing about Trump supposedly giving wife Melania's ballot the "side eye" while they were voting in Manhattan.

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/onpolitics/2016/11/08/donald-trump-melania-ballot-voting/93491398/

What bullshit. Your readers know how unsympathetic I am to Donald Trump. But just watch the video. It's nothing. A thoroughly unremarkable polling-place video.

One of the last, best examples of Trump derangement syndrome; in USA Today.

Balfegor म्हणाले...

On the one hand, I find that I am excited to see how this election turns out. But on the other hand, I'm pretty much checked out as far as caring who wins. I've articulated before the reasons I support Trump in the end (largely the sheer awfulness of the Democratic party's activists and their Sturmabteilungen who have gone about fomenting violence and intimidating political opponents this year), but Clinton II herself is not an unacceptable alternative. She's a lot more tarnished than she was in 2008, but I still just don't see her as the ogre so many others do.

Anyhow, I'm overseas now, so I'll go shopping for a bit (looking for some new walking shoes), do a bit of work, and check in again to see what doom has befallen us around noonish.

While I take note of the sarcasm I will ignore it and answer sincerely, from the heart. I used the Huffpo poll set on 'more smoothing'. This has been at roughly 3-4% for the entire election cycle. Based on this analysis very little happened during the election to change minds, which is my view.

Announcing it neck and neck will increase turnout in the panhandle. I thought they were supposed to wait until the polls closed, but hey, all's fair, right?

I think it means that 55% of first time voters are voting for the Peronist candidate.

shiloh म्हणाले...

Nate currently has Hillary winning by 3.6%, but as mentioned Nate is conservative.

I have Hillary winning nationwide by 4+%.

An aside Clinton '92 campaign crunched the #s and determined if you win by at least by 1.5 percent it's pretty much mathematically impossible to lose the electoral college.

2000 Gore won the popular vote nationwide by .5% and Bush squeaked by in FL.

When I read that comment, that's what I thought, too. If true, it means HRC is toast. It's hard to see how having more than half of you voters being folks who are voting for the first time will overwhelm everybody else voting for the other guy.

That's awesome!

So. Which right-wing policies do you think she'll start off implementing?

Remember, her husband deregulated Wall Street, pushed DOMA, NAFTA, mass incarceration, and welfare "reform."

For Hillary's part, she's gloated about assassinating journalists, pushed regime change in a benign country (Libya) to turn it into an al Qaeda safe-haven, laughed about its leader getting bayoneted in the ass, is pushing for WWIII in Syria and sold climate change all around the world. And wants a "private" position on Wall Street and TPP that's different from her "public" position on those things.

So, what do you say, Shiloh? War with Russia by... May 2017, maybe? Mass refugee crisis to follow by summer?

Do let me know how quickly she can implement this very important agenda of hers.

I have conceded that Hillary will cheat her way through this election and her stranglehold of the media's coverage of it no less than she did through her party's primary election. Her lawyers have already admitted that they lied about their mission and defended it on the grounds that lying is protected political speech.

Yes, under his hoodie. Trump is the outlaw candidate, that's for sure. For people who really care about their brand, anyways.

I hope if he wins, he bulldozes the White House and builds condos for yuppies on that beautiful Lafayette Square address. Hillary would do the same thing, only instead of actually building something, she would just be selling power.

I am pulling for the plucky old wench to finally get to billionaire status based on peddling her power. It's an ancient tradition, goes back to Tallyrand, at least!

Hillary Clinton can break the glass ceiling by becoming the first Woman president to be impeached. Sisterhood is powerful.

Florida just flipped to Trump in the lead!

So, now you're interested in her own version of what she'd do.

It's more fun when you get all worked up inventing her evil plans for her.


So she has evil plans for herself? THat would be a nice change. Balance it out against her evil plans for everyone else.

Feel free to tell me what good her interest in further deregulating Wall Street, more regime change wars, more fracking, more targeting of political enemies (like Julian Assange) will do.

Feel free. Any time, now.

Any day.

So now that it's all over, which accomplishment will Hillary build on in her presidency. What was her finest hour, and what lessons can we draw from that as to what kind of president she will be?

Michael K म्हणाले...


If Trump wins, a lot of bad lefties and media phonies will suffer catatonic injury to their collective psyche - (i.e., the political round table on CNN , Harry Reid, La Raza)

That is a good outcome, in my book


Yes, it would be delightful to see Harry locked in the nuclear depository for a few years. At least until he glowed in the dark.

It's interesting to see how silent Hillary supporters are any time you ask them about her policies. They shut up quicker than a Warner Bros. cartoon character accidentally ingesting Alum.

Just all puckered up.

And HIllary's primary demographic chimes in: Post-menopausal women exacting psychological vengeance against their bad memories of boorish male bosses in the 1960s.

Really important issue to run an election on in 2016.

Interesting, and I thought this for some time, it's reverse coattails in OH/FL as Portman/Rubio helping Trump in both states. Strickland was an absolute train wreck in Ohio and many wonder why the powers that be ever thought he would be a good candidate for the senate.

Plus Portman outspent him about 2.5 to 1.

That was pretty rapey. Most of the stuff lefties say is bullshit. They don't really care about anything but power over everybody else.

There are a LOT of neocons out there. Which neocons favorite regime-change candidate will Queen Hillary invade?


This is Brett Stevens in the WSJ today: "Donald Trump is a demagogue. Period. The fervor of his crowds recalls Nasser’s Egypt. His convictions are illiberal. His manners are disgusting. His temper is frightening."

The neocons attacks on Trump have been the biggest surprise of this election cycle. You would have thought that they would have worked to co-opt him rather than simply attack him. Something I am not getting there.

So Assange is someone she'd treat differently than Qaddafi. You have a lot of faith. Read the WikiLeak on how serious she was about exploring the "droning" option. Others laughed, she was serious. Read it.

Likewise, as best as I can tell, your other predictions are unmoored.

LOL! Hey, I'm just going off of her past. Suffice it to say, I have less faith than you do that her past policies were just a lie to convince people of what she had the shamelessness to do, rather than what she'd prefer to keep doing.

But nice of you to believe in this Magic Hillary who Will Transform into a non-Neocon Warmongering Corporatist the night of the election. I'm sure she really appreciates your faith. Abandoning objective rationality is a really important prerequisite for believing whatever a pathological liar tells you.

Fun Challenge: Name the one time that Hillary ever took a consistent stand on a policy she said she wanted and actually implemented. You know, that one time.

I know you can do it!

@ARM: "The neocons attacks on Trump have been the biggest surprise of this election cycle. You would have thought that they would have worked to co-opt him rather than simply attack him. Something I am not getting there." As a #NeverNeverTrumper and former neocon, I agree. Especially compared to the main opponent: did they really mean to say that Clinton & Co.. are less demagogic, less ethically challenged, less insulting to women, and more sensible in their judgment of foreign affairs?

But this doesn't explain why they were so hostile from the start. It would have made more sense to flatter Trump and steer him towards their own goals rather than just burn down the house. Set up are few meetings with Henry Kissinger and they could have had him vowing to nuke Iran and the Saudis on day one. It's not like the Donald's views on foreign affairs were either closely held or well thought out.

I challenge any Hillary booster/defender to tell me a single policy that they have at least 90% confidence that she will do her most to implement.

They can't do it. And they don't care. For them, it's ONLY about persona, partisan team cheerleading, and gender/identity issues. Nothing else.

They are the low information voters to end all low information voters. The absolute bottom of the barrel of policy information.

Invading Iraq? Very liberal.

She was a NY US Senator. Wall Street's spokesperson in the Congress. Was it liberal for her to back out of Elizabeth Warren's bankruptcy bill? To leave on the day of the vote?

Real courage there.

The decidedly un-Trump Republicans are doing great. Rubio, Portman, and Todd Young with big wins. Todd Young beating Evan Bayh is big.

Hillary's foreign policy, in a nutshell:

Bomb an Arab country, make refugees out of millions of them, flood other countries with the refugees, and then bitch about how mean the population is to not want to compete with them for jobs or that special brand of political "activism" many of them like to bring with them.

Bombing the hell out of the Mid East is like Hillary's own jihad. It keeps the cycle going. Kill people, praise the poor refugees, flood the labor markets with the jobs they'll compete for, and blame any resistance to that hysterical madness on what's known as "Islamaphobia".

She really has her work cut out for her, doesn't she?
