Megan goes halfway across Fox building to interview the guys in the Decision Desk Room about their decision to call Ohio in response to Rove's ranting. Boy she really is one fine lookin' dame....don't get to see her walking around much. - OS [/quote] I agree! Very Pretty!!! In fact, the best thing about the whole night was watching her walk down that hall. Would have liked to seen a rear view!!!

[quote name='OhShoot' timestamp='1352262778' post='840752'] Yep, he's sayin it ain't over till it's over. Course, he predicted a comfortable win for Mitt, too. [/quote] Yes he did.

i know Rove is saying it ain't over, but Obama is pulling ahead in Florida and Virginia now. Just don't see it happening.

Rove is saying Ohio is still to close to call.

It's over. FOX is calling it for Obama as well. Florida will go into the Obama Column soon and I think Virginia will too. What votes are left to count are all in Democratic Strongholds.

FOX is projecting Obama wins Ohio. The Fat Lady is Singing loud and clear. Obama has been re-elected.

The Fat Lady is Stage Left.

According to FOX, Obama is 26 Electoral votes away from re-election.

[quote name='OhShoot' timestamp='1352260354' post='840685'] So is Miami-Dade. Strongly Dem. It's over. - OS [/quote] And a larger population. Romney had to win the I-4 corridor and he didn't. 90% of the vote throughout the state is in.

Romney is going to lose Florida and when that happens, it's over. Nothing left there but the Democratic Strongholds.

I don't think a truly conservative party can win anymore.

[quote name='Good_Steward' timestamp='1352258485' post='840626'] This is a mandate not for the Repubs, but for a strong, no BS third party candidate. We have pigeon-holed ourselves into believing that there are only 2 viable candidates for the Presidency. There needs to be an immediate course correction in our thinking. [/quote] I agree, with the exception of one thing. That third party has to be able to take votes equally from the Democrats as well. Take for example the Tea Party. IF it breaks away from the Republican Party, then you are effectively handing over just about every election to the Democrats. The only way I see that happening is if the third party is a moderate party.

I think Mitt is going to lose Florida too. He's behind and all that's really left is the Democratic strongholds. And now FOX says he lost NH too. I think the Fat Lady is warming up. Another thing, the Republicans look like they are going to lose seats in the Senate. The Dims have already turned 2 of them. The Republican Party better wake up after this election. It's not going to get any easier for them in the future. They cannot keep putting up candidates like Mourdock in Indiana and Akin in Missouri. By 2050 there are going to be more minorities voting than Caucasian and it looks like most of that vote will go to the Democrats. They have to get a handle on the minority vote and that will probably mean they will have to ditch the illegal alien mantra. If Obama wins tonight (and I think it looks more and more like he will) I hope he loses the popular vote and wins via the electoral college. That would stop the mandate claim. But he probably won't lose that either. Palin is on FOX and looks a bit shocked.

I think they are going to be counting for several days afterwards, if not weeks. Both sides are preparing for Y2k again.

SP101 is mine!

I would love to have a lever action 45-70!

The only thing I didn;t like about them was the thick grip panels. They would be much easier to conceal with thin grips.

Outstanding!!!

He's a piece all right. A piece of S#$T!

The Mk II had been my favorite .22 auto! I've had it about 10 or so years and I've had it apart only a couple of times. Too big of a PITA to put back together. The last time I had to get on Youtube and watch a video on how to put it back together. That helped a lot! Shoots as good as it ever did though.

I was issued a National Match .45 ACP, when I was shooting for the Army Reserve back in the 1990's and I could take the bushing off without a tool. I've never had a .45 that the bushing was so tight I needed a wrench. Accuracy of your .45 seems about right for a combat pistol, off hand though and you said this was shooting off a bench. If you aren't happy with it, send it to S&W and have them check it out.

Caster, that could be a fun plinking toy at the range!!!

The tactical double barrel is cool looking and all, but it seems to be a solution waiting for a problem. There are much better options to be had, the used 870 for example, or a Saiga 12. But the coolness factor would probably induce me to pick one up, too. The Nagant is just a cool pistol with historical significance. You could order a .32acp cylinder for it and make it a lot cheaper to shoot, though. As for the heavy trigger pull, there are things you can do to take care of that, or have a smith do it, or just shoot in single action, which was probably what most soldiers that used them back in the day, did. Enjoy both though! I could see the double barrel being a good bushcraft gun.

Mike, I will be right there feeling the same way. But I will hold my nose and vote for Romney, knowing I am only voting for retaining a conservative Supreme Court. That is the only reason I am voting for Romney. Personally, I can't see much difference between either major party. Both are out for themselves and could really give a rat's potooty about our country. It's all about the winning and control.
