Quote

I never supported the Trump candidacy and still would not today and for that I make no apology to anyone.

I said that there was no way in hell that he would ever win the Republican nomination. Struck out there.

When he did win the nomination I said there was no way in hell he would ever beat Hillary Clinton. Struck out again.

That makes me currently 0 for 2 with a batting average of 0.00.

Our president elect made many promises to the people in accomplishing the things I mentioned above and I said I did not believe a word he said.

It is my most sincere hope and prayer for the sake of this once great republic and all of it's current and future inhabitants that going forward my batting average never improves!

I also find myself VERY happy this morning at the prospect of never ever having to hear the name Clinton with regard to any elected office in this land for as long as I live!



Are we having fun yet, Earl?    :beer:

Yep!  that's the post! Now tell me how you arrived at me admitting that I had been wrong about EVERYTHING from that!

Reid is GONE thank God and the putz from NY taking his place (Chuck Schumer) ain't gonna roll easily!  And besides that the odds that the dems retake the Senate in 18 are astronomical!

You celebrate a little early.

Reid is gone as much as Obama is gone.

There are still a couple of months for havoc to reign over us until they both are truly gone.

First of all, I did NOT post the controversial meme about apologizing, forgiving and forgetting with myself in mind.  I don't expect anybody in here to do any of those things. 

It was to let everybody reflect on their own rough go of it with individual/specific members, since the presidential campaigns began. 

It was for members who got into heated argument and flame wars...the MODS and administrators can't be everywhere at once...with once another, and it was a suggestion to examine events and make amends.

As far as being "right"....I not only told you he was going to win, but I told you HOW he would achieve it.

That's all I meant about being correct....the prognostication of it all.

And somebody tell Sink he now owes me $200.00    For the Nomination...and for the brass ring.   Or...is it $1,100?   

He never pays up, anyway. :laugh:

I may not be a college professor in Pennsylvania....I may, in fact, be a "Yahoo" in many members' eyes.

But, truthfully,.....who has the correct pulse on the electorate.   Me?   Or you self-appointed "big brains"?      :whistle:

If you want to call that gloating...so be it.   I've earned the right.   Just like John Houseman.

You certainly were right about the electorate!  Congrats and kudos on that!

And yes, I remember the wager with sink. I might not get in the middle of that one.

Yup!

Consider me properly chastised!

That he did - and much of it extra-Constitutionally.  But IMO the greatest lost opportunity of the Obama years was his failure to heal race relations in this country.

Obama was never about to heal race relations.  Do you really believe he would every do this?

Liberals need this constantly to undermine the populace in order to use to enact their sour agenda.

Won't get too comfy Karnac. I went on a streak from 2009 to this election having called every major action/cave in by the GOP including Romney's wipeout when everyone sounded about him like you did about Trump.

With past performance being the most accurate predictor of future returns I'll be back to form in no time ;)

Yep and I HOPE that continues with things Trump!  It remains to be seen whether or not it will!   :whistle:

My county board is made up of all republicans.  They got thousands more votes than the presidential candidate.
