If you leave again I'm threatening to ban you.

I'm impressed you still left me with moderation privilege.

Yes... Obama was perceived as a massive outsider... he turned out to be a complete phony of course.

And the market was over the place then anyways due to housing crisis

THe crisis happened and the market was rebounding IIRC going into the election, and the BOOM it crashed.

My point is clear, Trump is also bought as Obama was. There were some chances that maybe he wasn't bought, but people rejected that.

The reason this is happening is because Hillary was supposed to be a slam dunk. She had poll leads that hadn't existed in an election like this. Bush never had them over Gore, Obama never had them over McCain.

What we're seeing here is a number of things happening and the uncertainty is what scares the elites. Not Trump but the people who voted for him and their unpredictableness.

Another thing we've learned... in the new internet/cell phone age, these polls are basically worthless

Thats possible but even if its a few 100K jobs nationwide its helpful.

Helpful yes, but the reality is that you can't build your future success as a nation on past methods of economics. In the world we live in 3D printing is beoming a huge thing. It's small now, but when it gets cheaper and better you won't need chinese laborers to make your iPhone, it is easier because of supply pipelines now, but when you can build the supplies on site the cost of shipping and whatnot will for sure outweigh the savings in produciton. Where we need to move as the US is into a marketplace that favors small businesses. Be them online businesses or instore. Ditchign corporate juggernauts is the key as the marketplaces and smaller people making goods are the future.

Frankly, I'd prefer she wins, but the spectacle is really something.

Are you back? Consider this a big hug. You were missed.

Why should we be surprised that the experts who missed everything in the Republican primary made the same mistake in the general election. Pretty much like a weather man who can't forecast rain even though he got wet driving to work.

Agreed plus the fact that the establishment has been trying to rig this race for a year now.

Anything is possible but this is more about me being incredibly pumped right now.

I missed you all as well and I appreciate you letting me know.

I'm waiting another day or so. I don't think this is a one day thing.

The states being flipped is insane

As soon as you saw the results in the rural counties of Virginia you knew this was going to be a good night!
