Just in case.

He got the ultimate bits of luck in Florida

It's not a dream, America.

It's real.

He now has several paths to 270...and is leading or close in all of them.

Don't give up yet, Bob. I have no doubt that Mrs. C already has directed her entire staff, including various attorneys, to work through tonight and for as long as it takes to prepare demands for many recounts and filings for lawsuits against the many people she believes must be blamed. Who knows? If some of them fall onto the benches of the proper judges, she might make some headway.

I doubt seriously if she is planning to give any kind of concession speech.

I said this back in August 2015, but would not have thought that it would necessarily come true.

ABC Australia (not the Mouse Network in the US) is early-calling a Trump victory.
No official confirmation from any US network yet (11:20 pm PST).

Just called five minutes ago by CNN and Faux News.

Oh, well. America had a good run.

You could be a network pundit. Hillary called Donald to concede even before the networks declared him the winner.

It has a nice ring to it, doesn't it?

Please, though.... just plain Mr. Trump, Sir will be just fine (keep a note of that, Bob!)... I'm pretty modest you know.

Do you mean the "old America" that would give the guy a chance?

Yes, when I heard that, I laughed, too. No doubt she did it just to spite me.

That's Sarcafont, if you've forgotten.

Or perhaps it was aimed at John Podesta, who had just spoken to her supporters to say that she was "not ready to concede." http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/podes ... le/2606898

Maybe her phone call to Trump was intended to be gracious, but not meant as a concession. We'll all find out tomorrow.

Sorry doc, but it was much less his celebrity-ness and bluster than it was his non-Hillary-ness.

No, I think it was his ability to say what people wanted to hear on a number of levels. There's a lot of non-deplorables who voted for him who heard the talk about how he was going to make America great without a whole lot in the way of details.

I just hope the markets recover by the time I get ready to retire. I also hope that Trump doesn't get peeved when national security is at stake.

But Hillary said what people wanted to hear on a number of levels AND provided details. Why do you think so many Democrats voted against her?

And Morgan Freeman is in pretty much everything as well.
