59. Typical Republican showing his true colors in not accepting responsibility for his mistakes.
Thu Nov 8, 2012, 12:22 PM
Nov 2012

Here's a new one to add to the list: The hurricane ate my homework.

Never mind that the tracking by Nate Silver had been proven right-on the money while the RW pundits were deluding themselves and their sheep into believing Romney would draw over 300 electoral votes.

If I was one of those RW media sheep and saw how far they misled me, I'd question whether they've been misleading me in other things, and for how long. But then again, if I was one of those RW media sheep, my brain probably wouldn't be capable of processing that type of information.
