Hola!
SECOND????
Third !!!!
Tweet of the day for you!!
LOVE IT! Exactly what I asked for!! Wow, you read minds too!
LOL good one.
Think he’s having to convince the person on the other end that’s yes, it really IS the President?
LunarSea, Have you heard from Hachiko lately or Marabout40? I haven’t seen her on twitter or commenting here for a long while. Do you know?
She’s tweeting away, Betsy!
https://twitter.com/marabout40
Tanks Chips, IPAD has done something to my ability to see tweets from my TOD family except you, Tally, UT, Bobfr and Dudette.
Really Betsy? That’s weird! Tally, Bob and Dudette? Have you broken the Twitternet?
I don’t think I have that much power I am afraid, LOL.
Oops, that should be “thanks” š
Now, really, can you imagine Mitt pulling off a face as full of humor as what PBO does?
He’s so robotic he’d be incapable LL – even trying to set politics aside (okay, that’s impossible) I find him unbearable to watch, he’s so freaky and weird and stiff and, well, yuck.
yup, he’s a freaky mittbot. All’s not lost tho. I’m certain that sometime in the future, in a galaxy far, far away, they will get his programming almost right. Of course by then there will be the shiny new mittbot 4.0 this one (v.2.0 cir 2012 ce) having been rendered obsolete long, long ago….in the future -hehehe
“….and, well, yuck.” LOL. My sentiment exactly.
Exactly. Me, too, also, you betcha.
Fabulous! I love it!!
Finally home. Congrats forus.
My Indy daughter and son in law are going to Louisville for the Bruce show there Sat. night. Too bad there weren’t any Obama events in In. this time.
Wow….another post. This is just too good.
OMG first!!! I find that astounding! Chips can I get a picture of POTUS with an election winning smile on?
See tweet! š
That is too funny!!! I’m pretty damn happy about it all. I have to say I don’t think I’ve ever seen that expression on his face before. The caption in the tweet is the only one that fits!
Yipee! I made it in time to catch a rally LIVE! whoo hooo ****doing the happy dance****
Good evening, good afternoon, good morning, good night to everyone at the TOD village š
Hellooooooooooooooooooo LunarSea!!!!!
ChipsChica have I mentioned what a wonderful job your superhero IronFist is doing at keeping this the coziest corner in the blogosphere? Even with those ballet shoes on! Suuhweeetttt
LunarSea, you are very, very kind, but I can’t take any credit, it’s my new best friend who’s doing all the iron-fist business:
š
ROFLMAO
Streaming has started at CBS
And at CNN
You stream, we stream, we all stream for POTUS!!
Hey, I like that slogan! š
lol, now I’m wondering if there’s ice cream in the freezer. brb
LOLz!!
I have chocolate ice cream in mine. Yeehaw!
Way to go, forus!!
#TrustBarack
On the menu for tonight:
Well, trick statement. I’m not cooking tonight. But we are getting a whole tandoori chicken from a local Indian place. Mmmmmmmm.
Yum!
I did thai tonight but love tandoori chicken. I do a mean west indian version that’s to die for!
How about an invite? Yummy.
Any non-SoCal TODer who makes it to L.A. has a standing invitation to Casa de LL.
Muy bien gracias.
oh hell yeah!!!
That’s some audience!!!!
Watching the CBS stream and as usual they have the best play list.
I’m dancing again LunarSea – and that actually is quite a scary thing (well, for anyone who witnesses the spectacle).
Your 2-stepping reputation precedes you. Second only to your ‘diabolical’ culinary flair.
To hell with ‘the spectacle’. I’m a firm believer in dancing like no one is watching! Much more fun that way.
“Your ādiabolicalā culinary flair”
šÆ
Iron Fist? Deal with this woman – now!
FYI – CSPAN One TV will be carrying our President live from 9PM ET.
Senator Reid was at the Nevada event.
There’s a photo of him in the last post, Anniebella.
How is his wife doing after her accident?
I thought that was her with him in the picture (in the wheelchair) but I’m not certain.
Haven’t heard anything for a while Anniebella, she was recovering from breast cancer last year so hopefully she’s winning her battle.
Errant Email to Newt Gingrich Supporters Says ‘Obama Is Going to Win’
// An email message mistakenly sent to Newt Gingrich’s list serve this morning told subscribers that President Obama would no doubt win in 2012 and that they should be more worried about Obama’s winning in 2016.
That’s right, despite the 22nd Amendment, which limits any one person to two presidential terms, the email that went out to Gingrich’s supporters suggests President Obama would be running again in 2016, and possibly serve through 2020.
“The truth is, the next election has already been decided. Obama is going to win. It’s nearly impossible to beat an incumbent president,” advertiser Porter Stansberry wrote in the email to Gingrich supporters. “What’s actually at stake right now is whether or not he will have a third-term.” //
http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/errant-email-newt-gingrich-supporters-obama-win/story?id=17618977#.UJMbb8XA9bo
I LIKE THE WAY THEY THINK!!!!!
But only with this SINGLE IDEA of a 3rd and 4th term for PBO! š š
(And not their typical childish, ignorant, selfish, fearful, backwards nonsense.)
The stupid…..jeez.
Yeah. As the quote goes (even though I try not to hate anybody, I can’t stop bringing this to mind):
They hate us because they think we think they’re stupid. And we hate them because they’re stupid.
Trying to keep his peons riled up by extending the boogie man effect beyond 2016.
The funniest part is we’ll probably begin hearing murmurs of PBO rigging things to keep himself in the big house beyond the 2 term limit. Because, you know….you just can’t trust someone who’s come this far by using Chicago thugs tactics, lying, affirmative action, and/or Jedi mind tricks.
And besides, have you noticed? ***whispers*** he’s not one of us……shhhh
Do you think they will ever catch on to how severely they’ve been had?

Naahhhh…. š
Fine by me….. Fine by me!
This was posted on the Oh baby thread . Seems a genuine report. Hope it is tweeted to all the OFA campaign staff.
Ohio Secretary of State had āexperimentalā software patches installed on voting machine tabulators!
http://www.freepress.org/departments/display/19/2012/4766
Hi Criquet, it seems so bizarre but I sent a couple of tweets when I saw it a little earlier just in case.
Thanks VC. We must fight all the Teathug tricks and abuses.
NP, Criquet. I pity GOP for their unrelenting dishonesty.
Huge crowd
Loooooove it Dotster!
Do you hear Rachel talking about the election with her Real clear poll.
Yes. BOO! I am on the treadmill so am only half focusing on her though.
I turn her off.
How do they decide on which poll to talk about? The poll which prove the point they want to make.
What is this? Oh. Sec. of State —–all kinds of ballot problems—–including misplacing 33,000 absentee ballots, or something—–said to possibly delay election results for weeks??????????
http://thinkprogress.org/justice/2012/11/01/1122641/ohios-ballot-woes-could-delay-election-results-for-weeks/
Also this was posted on an earlier thread. Worrying.
“Ohio Secretary of State had āexperimentalā software patches installed on voting machine tabulators!
http://www.freepress.org/departments/display/19/2012/4766 “
It is ashame that the United States of America, can have so much problem with voting, intentional or not. it is ashame. I just hope and pray, hope and pray.
It’s called voter fraud and it’s the GOP’s speciality
I wonder if that has anything to do with the new untested computer program that the Ohio Sec. of State installed in their electronic voter machines.
OH NO. š¦
Looks like we need Jimmy Carter and a HUGE team of U.N. monitors to oversee the Ohio election. GOD DAMN FUCKING DISGUSTING CHEATING REMAGGOTICANs . SWEAR I CAN’T STAND THEM!
This is really making me furious—-it’s Oh dirty tricks all over again——most of “mistaken” rejected absentee ballot requests from Cuyahoga Co. —-Cleveland—Dem stronghold. Now if those people try to vote in person their only possibility will be a provisional ballot, and I don’t trust provisional ballots to ever be counted. Too many excuses to reject them.
Why can’t these people be decent and honest? They’re all about family values and Christian principles. God, they are such disgusting creatures.
That actually makes me feel physically ill …. not again, please.
I also think the Obama campaign have their eyes wide open. And they will be watching anything which smells funny.
Hope Ax, Plouffe, Messina ,Stef Cutter & Co are on it!!
I hope so too because this is some fucking bull.
If there is anything to it you can bet your life they are on it. I have no doubt.
Can we call the FBI and DOJ about this?this is just so much bullshit and I can’t believe it.
We DO have 100s of GREAT people in Ohio!!! I bet they’re ON IT. There are TONS of good, decent American lawyers working for PBO. (I’m married to one!!) Man I wish I could drop everything and go help there………..
I’m just so tired of these Repugs. I’ve had it up to here with them. They are just too fucking much.
Please thank your husband for working for President Obama – every hand helps!
My wife!! :0 :0… I will!!
Even better!
I guess they’ll need that time to screw up the count and look for “hanging chads”! š¦
Just read over at Huffpuff that a Senior Secret Service Agent in charge of President Obamaās security detail committed suicide earlier today. According to reports he didnāt tell investigators about an extramarital affair he had with a woman from Mexico.
So sorry to hear about that, Don.
ohhh myyyyyyy…….nooo
That’s horrible.
Crap more unexpected sh!t this man has to deal with, because you know he takes these things deeply.
I don’t mean to sound callous, but there are people who have lost all they’ve worked hard all their lives to secure including their homes. To pull this over an affair in 2012!? I think there is more here than meets the eye.
I thought the same thing too. It’s ridiculous. God rest his soul, but seriously?…….unbelievable. Two damned babies killed in Sandy and this man kills himself over an affair? That can’t have been the only reason. Was he suffering from depression? What else could have led him down such a permanent Path? Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Most suicide survivors immediately regret the attempt, especially jumpers.
I concur!!
Pres. Obama’s campaign rallies always have the best music.
I read about the OHIO shennanigans. Please if you or anyone you know is in Ohio please help GOTV. If you have voted take someone to the polls. It is very close and any dirty pool could give it to Romney. Don’t let them win – we can do it.
Bubba is loving campaign season.
Yes he is. š
I so appreciate the fervor with which he’s representing President Obama – it’s absolutely heart-warming and wonderful. I hope someone’s monitoring his health. Adrenaline can be a tricky beast, and he’s got a faulty heart.
Important you all read this …. you’ll see why š
Why Obama Endorsement From Starbucks CEO Who Battled Obamacare Is A Big Deal
http://thenewcivilrightsmovement.com/why-obama-endorsement-from-starbucks-ceo-who-battled-obamacare-is-a-big-deal/politics/2012/11/01/52760
“If anyone knows business, itās Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz. ….. Schultz this year added that an ability to lead in a bipartisan fashion was a prerequisite for his support. And today, he gave that support to President Obama, citing his performance during Hurricane Sandy.”
#TrustBarack
Except – the other guy’s party pledged to obstruct any effort at bipartisanship and made it their top priority to ensure that the President failed. They even going so far that on the President’s first week while he was going to visit the Republicans to discuss the details of passing a Stimulus to recovery the economy, the GOP put out a press release vowing to obstruct the plan before they even heard it! If they want someone who will practice bipartisanship, then they’ve had that guy all along. Someone should tell him that “it takes two to tango”! I’m still glad for the endorsement, though…
WOW! THEE Morgan Fairchild
I like that: Mr. November

We Hold These Truths: Edward Norton’s Homespun Campaign Documentary Debuts Tonight
To support the President, the actor sought to take the spotlight off himself and put it onto Obama’s rank and file. An anti-celebrity approach to celebrity-glutted politics.
Posted Nov 1, 2012 6:11pm EDT
By the end of each election season, the spectre of celebrities holding forth on their political views and stirring up controversy with ill-considered remarks becomes almost as common as lawn signs and Uncle Sam hats.
But stepping into the campaign in support of President Obama’s re-election, actor Edward Norton has tried to venture in exactly the opposite of that well trod path. Teaming up with director Bennett Miller (Moneyball) and @radical.media, he has created an election season documentary with nary a hint of glitz, featuring, of all things, typical Americans from all walks of life talking about the core issues of what America means to them, and how those principles lead them to their Obama vote.
The seven minute film entitled We Hold These Truths, to be released online tonight, was the result of the actor’s attempt to support the campaign without making it “about himself.” Having previously made a HBO documentary, By the People, about the President, Norton remained friends with Obama guru David Axelrod, who called him in July looking to “get some filmmakers to think about creative ways to address the politics of the moment outside of the standard campaign ads and short cycle news media.”
“I was glad to get the call,” Norton said in a telephone interview Thursday. “I had been having a conversation with friends about how frustrating it was to see the conversation reducing politics to a gladatorial wrestling match.” He turned to director Miller, who had shot a series of stark talking heads pieces about the meaning of the filmgoing experience for last year’s Oscarcast; pieces Norton recalled as “best part of the show.” The pair talked about how they could make a short film that stepped away from the noise and got back to real people talking about what really motivates their vote.

Dudette yo’ butt is on it! š
Thank you Sir!
WORD!
This looks great. Will watch after PBO is done speaking
Anybody else having problems with the livestream at every link? It’s driving me nuts.
It is on c-span live tv.
I’m watching it here on CBS
http://www.cbsnews.com/liveFeed/widget.shtml
That one wouldn’t work for me. I just got the C-SPAN link to work!
Yes, that’s why I switched to CSPAN one TV. It is very frustrating with these interruptions while our President is speaking. And it’s been happening on EVERY one of these links for me today.
OK, so it isn’t just me. Thanks. Interesting that it’s happening now and only on the POTUS streams.
Because so many people are trying access the speeches all at once that the feeds are snagging big time.
Looks like POTUS have a pretty good crowd tonight in Colorado.
Capacity is 11,000 and it’s packed
He and President Clinton do need to be gentle on their vocal chords!!!! Love both of them for their intensity.
#TrustBarack
I just posted the same Bob…little concerned about him. He’s got a few more rally’s to go.
He’s just irrepressible š
Sorry, posted this from the last entry…
Sure hope PBO is able to rest his voice in between all the rally’s he is heading into. He’s sounding a tad horse tonight in his voice.
He’s probably still recovering from several days of dealing with a crisis with limited (if any) sleep.
#TrustBarack He’s Earned It
Really important to read that link …
I’ll be reading this for sure, after PBO speech.
So, this right wing conspiracy actually jeopardizes national security, because the White House is now having to release classified information in order to shoot down a stupid conspiracy. I heard an NPR show (it may be the one linked here, but I can’t listen to it right now) saying that the CIA base was a secret base, and the information about the terrorist attack was also classified.
I know that this attack broke President Obama’s heart. He tried to help. Just to be able to watch an attack in real time and to ghen have ti put up with the shady actions of some in Congress must make you almost lose your mind. This among other things let us all know that our President is trying to leave this country in a better place than what he found.
I’m telling you, this man is amazing.
SIMPLY AMAZING!!!!!!
Never saw a response to Katrina like this ….
wow
Holy shit. Election’s over.
I guess Jeb Bush is tried of POTUS blaming his brother for the mess he left this economy in. Bu6t if it isn’t G.W. Bush fault, who is it? I think Jeb need to go some where and shut his freaking mouth, because it is G.W. fault.
A bush is what a dog lifts his leg on!
š Truly Yardarm, you’re a master with words!!
A simple ghetto kid with a public school ‘edumacation’!
POTUS is on his way to Ohio next.
Every time I see Jeb Bush saying those stupid words, I get livid. I don’t know why he thinks he can rehabilitate the Bush name – it’s permanently tarnished, and we’re still all reeling from the effects of that disastrous presidency. I can see Jeb trying to run with Condoleeza on a ticket – a losing ticket.
Of course, PBO took the stage while I was on an NTL conf call…
I’ve discovered that I’m not as cynical and cold blooded as I’ve often thought. For the last two weeks, I’ve been feeling good. A bit anxious– like test anxiety? That good kind of anxiety you get right before a test? It’s a natural kind of anxiety that you get even though you’ve studied everything back and forth, inside out? The kind of anxiety that dissipates once you’ve started the test and then this transcendent feeling emerges and you get a feeling like: ‘Fuck it! I’VE GOT THIS!!!!!’ So for a couple weeks now, I’ve had a bit of test anxiety, but overall, I know I’m all good because I fundamentally believe PBO will win. What shocked me though, was how much of my faith is based on my basic–surprising– belief that good triumphs over evil. I was so shocked that I really believed that. I appear to honestly, truly believe that truth will prevail. Through all the cynicism in life and in the media, I truly believe that neither Fate nor God will allow anyone but PBO to prosper in this presidential election. So though I’m in alt over that stinking bastard Husted in Ohio, I truly believe that one way or another, PBO will come out on top. Huh! Quick, somebody slap me!
“… how much of my faith is based on my basicāsurprisingā belief that good triumphs over evil. I was so shocked that I really believed that. I appear to honestly, truly believe that truth will prevail.”
Standing right there next to you, Lisa.
We’re going to ace that ‘exam’ on 6 Nov š
#TrustBarack
I am with you Lisa. However, I have to admit that my faith is in Barack Hussein Obama – that he always knows HOW to win. I can’t say I have that faith in other Democrats. 2010 they all ran like idiots away from healthcare, etc. etc. etc. So if it was any other Dem politician with less than a 10 point lead in key states, I would be quite apprehensive.
The most reliable projections have him winning without OH which is what I;ve been focusing on for awhile. Hustad has shown he will do anything to steal this election. But both 538 and Princeton have him projected to win over 300 EV so hopefully we will not be waiting on OH. I’m with you in thinking most Americans are decent and recognize that quality in PBO. It;s easy to forget with the noise from the wingnuts but I felt the same way in 2008. We’ve got a lot of work to do the next five days but I’m moving forward with confidence.
No slapping required. My sister has been saying this since 2010. The consequences of evil winning out over good are just too dire. It cannot happen. Good must always, ultimately prevail.
I would have to be slapped as well. I want that lying bastard CRUSHED. I still can’t believe how hatred can blind people to their own self interest.
…..swoon…..deep sigh……
I feel ya. He’s simply the BEST!
I just hope they didn’t break the mold. It would be such a pity. I just know they will be comparing future presidents to this one forever. I hope someone is capable of stacking up. For the sake of the world.
Ah ha! Caught you admitting that swooning is soothing. š
I’m a swooning fool! No shame in my game when it comes to My President. š
Way to go, Dudette, taking pride in honest emotions! š I’ve been learning from the fine examples here in TODville. I generally keep what I feel inside, but you should have seen me dancing around when I heard the speech Mr. Pres delivered in Vegas! Delivery and content were terrific, and I’d never been one to say that’s his ‘best speech ever’ for every one. Today’s reminded me of Tweety’s tingle. š
As you more or less remarked earlier, LS, we are so spoiled for any other president coming down the pike later. š
President Barack Obama is MY CHAMPION in Washington!!
Thanks for the speech in Boulder. I am fired up. Out canvasing again tomorrow!!!!
Thank YOU Cindy!
He sure has one powerful voice! Bravo PBO, congrats to all of you American neighbours. You’ve got one helluva guy backing you up there.
1st president who can turn me to mush just hearing him speak.
Wait. did I just say that out loud?!
You sure did š
Me too LunarSea, me too!! š
We’ve already asked Yardarm to get going with stocking up on supplies for Tuesday, naughty mats, fainting couches, smelling salts, tissues, etc…So much too do, so little time to get this house in order before Tues. No wonder he’s easing his stress with some rum tonight – it’s overwhelming the amount of shipments he will have to make!
LMAO A worthy assignment
Perks? We got perks here? Why wasn’t I informed? š
Man! You can tell POTUS gets in his squats every morning. One naughty mat for me, please.
just leave plenty of room – We’re still waiting on Yardarm’s delivery
Anyone else notice how many Willard supporters are crazy people? So many have made the most unhinged, delirious, threatening statements ever heard during a political campaign.
Obama derangement syndrome. I’m pretty sure ObamaCare covers it.
Bernie Marcus has been an asshole for many years. Can’t stand that sorry cretin!

I really dislike John Fugelsang.
He’s okay w/me. He speaks truth to b.s.
I just don’t get his humour, I guess. Sometimes, it’s a little too sharp – especially against the President and some Democrats. And there’s often a bit of emoprog misinformation. But, to each his own – we don’t all have to like the same people. Enjoy him! š
Thks. I ain’t going to party with the dude, but when I compare him to other PUNDITS I’d rather him than a Chuck Todd.
I’m with you there!
“I.Love.President.Barack.Hussein.Obama.” …. š … Chips, thank you for posting the video of his speech in Boulder..
He is simply an outstanding man, a truly beautiful human being.
One of my colleagues said today “if romney wins, I am moving to an island”, I replied that ” it is quite likely that he owns the island you move to”.
If anyone has a link to PBC’s speech today, I would gratefully appreciate if you could post it. š
