  • What will you do on November 7th?

    So what will you guys do immediately following Obamas re-election? Emigrate? Dis-engage from society? Armed rebellion?

    Republicans Imagine The Day After Obama's Reelection

    TAMPA, Fla. -- Should President Barack Obama win reelection this November, anti-tax advocate Grover Norquist pledges that he would immediately begin working on the 2014 midterm elections, foreshadowing the same type of adversarial approach that conservatives adopted after Obama's 2008 victory.

    He won't have Dr. Ada Fisher to help him, however. The North Carolina Republican national committeewoman and member of the North Carolina Women for Mitt leadership team said she would move to Israel if Obama wins a second term.

    "Number one, I'm Jewish," she explained. "And number two, I don't believe Obama will support the nation of Israel. Israel will have to defend itself alone, and they are going to need all hands on deck."

    Others promised to join Fisher in her post-election exodus. Lori Hatch, a convention-goer from Oregon, said she would move to the Czech Republic. Sheila, a convention attendee from Tampa who would only reveal her first name, said she would basically disengage from normal society, "get out of the mainstream of all the things I do for the community and business and all of the charitable things I would do."

    Then there was Newt Gingrich, who wouldn't even consider the hypothetical. "That's a thought so terrible I can't contemplate it," said the former House speaker.

    These are just a sampling of the answers that The Huffington Post received in its very informal survey of delegates, lawmakers, operatives and other attendees at last week's Republican National Convention.

        New York isn't a swing state, *****, no ads here.

        Man, Ohio really has the worst of everything, doesn't it. Political ads there just add insult to injury.

            Ohio is a post-apocalyptic hellscape.

              What in the world? How does one just pick the Czech Republic.. not to mention they may have a slightly larger government than the US (including *gasp* universal health care!)

                I would be unhappy at the continued weakening of the US economy by a smug incompetent, and look forward to voting for Republicans again in 2013, 2014, 2015, and 2016. Elections are every year in Virginia.

                  This too, except I don't watch TV so I'll mostly be glad when the flood of stupid, unfunny, snarky/paranoid graphics stops drowning my Facebook feed. Even the lolcats are less obnoxious.

                  EDIT: Sports rivalries come close. But at least nobody is silly enough to take those things seriously.

                    Have you never met a hardcore sports fan?

                      Not one who thinks, say, that Steelers fans are a legitimate threat to the future of our country, or that they actually hate America.

                        Unlike in Europe, our football fans don't burn stuff down when the game ends. Also our football is better.

                          Their rugby is better than football though.

                              Aww, you were so close to not being wrong for once, and then you went and spoilt it all at the end.
