Random Post Election Thoughts

[GBBob]

In hopefully an unpartisan way...

1) There HAS to be a better way to conduct an election than how it's currently done. Long lines, antiquated voting machines..please..we can invent I Pads and technology beyond belief but this is how we vote?

2) Ironically, the Tea Party probably cost the Republicans the Senate. I'm not sure if they care about the Republican Party or just their own agenda, but Richard Luger would not have lost Indiana last night and let's not even get started with Missouri.

3) If there was a Liberal bias, then I missed it, but CNN's coverage was pretty amazing last night. Limited advertising and smooth transitions plus John King on the Big Board was pretty compelling stuff no matter who you voted for.

4) If I'm Mitt Romney I run again in 2016. I think he got more human as the campaigning unfolded and was very classy in defeat. Admittedly I thought his desire to be President was intially motivated by ego and greed to attain another level of success, but if he can get the Republican platform to just move into the 21st Century, even the 20th Century for that matter, he will be much more electable in four years.

5) The pollsters are good..really good.
