If you bet on Hillary, you should be worried

I agree...congrats on your wins...when are they going to call New Hampshire? It looks to be an automatic recount with Hillary up .1%.

Well, I felt the need to bump this baby.

As of now, here is how the electoral map panned out:

Michigan and New Hampshire are both still too close to call, and ultimately, the decision on whom to cast the electoral votes for will fall on the members of the electoral college themselves.

Clinton is ahead by a tight 1500 votes in New Hampshire...there is no law governing the way that NH electorates vote, so I am hopeful that they will run with the pack and cast them for Trump. That is a very real possibility.

Trump is ahead in Michigan, but it is tight. I guarantee that the DNC is lobbying to get Clinton those electorates. Will be interesting to see which way those go....

I have a little wager out there on NH +240, so still monitoring this situation. IF both states go trump, then he will post 310 electoral votes.....lots of political capital there.

Very instructive to see riots and protesting in city streets after the Trump win though......whiners, poor losers, and lack of sportsmanship. These people clearly never competed at anything in their lives. Never got their behinds kicked before and were forced to tip their collective hats.

NO participation trophies here........you either win or lose. On to the inauguration.

BUMP

I am curious if the recount efforts are successful, will the books want their money back?

So much for "excepting the results of the election"! Hillary supporters are shameless.

Bookmaker paid me in full, even on the state prop bets by 12 noon Wednsday, November 9.

Honestly, I was surprised by how fast they gave up the cheddar. BUT, I will not be giving any back due to recount funny business...If they go that route I will close my account. (Been open since 2002!)

By the way, who the heck is running Paddypower??? they paid out 1 million on Clinton the week before the election.....buffoons.

Give me that book for 6 months..........they may actually see a profit!

Got a little sentimental watching Obama's farewell speech. 

Had to give this thread a BUMP.

It's fun to go back on threads like these and read the posts.

Ahhhhh, the good ole days, when Shillary was going to be President because a Republican could never win a national election.

Great President? That is laughable.

Take a look at the racial divide in this country, what with the Black Lives Matter etc. This happened on Obama's watch.

This clusterfuckk in Syria....Happened on Obama's watch

Here is why he may go down as one of the worst Presidents ever: The national debt when he took office was 10 Trillion, today it is just under 20 trillion. Basically doubled our national debt in the short time he was president. Anyone would do better than this jagoff

"Sentimental" was an attempt at sarcasm.

Obama was the worst president of our time. Wall Street made more than ever, Arab spring destabilized a great portion of the third world, terror attacks and racial divide in the Western World are at all time highs.

Yet advocates for Obama will never accept any of these points as truth. They are undeniable in every way. He has not delivered on one single campaign promise in 2008:

1) Health Care is outrageously expensive and unfeasible for most

2) The US is still actively at war in Afghanistan

3) The US is more divided today than ever, both racially and economically.

To put it simply, Barack Obama was a shill for everyone except the American people. He is the worst president in the history of the United States. Good riddance.
