Mitt Romney, 3/12/47, is about seven months older than Hillary, 10/26/47, and about nine months younger than Donald, 6/14/46. If Mitt had run this year, it sure seems like he would have won it in a landslide.

and ........ a little drum roll here ...... and Mitt would have ...... ratta-tat-tat ..... brang....... eh.......make that ......brought...... the summer White House to Wolfeboro.

Instead, it may be eight years with President Hillary-45, from January 20, 2017 to January 20, 2025, when she will be age-77 ...... oh well!

Mitt would have been eaten alive by Hillary, Mitt should enjoy his retirement.

!

Mitt would have won 4 years ago if he had run a real campaign instead of the wishy washy mess he tossed out there. It felt that he really did not want to win but since it was "his turn" he took it. Pitiful bunch the White shoe Republican establishment types are. Pray that Trump takes it and may I suggest that all Dems vote for Jill Stein if you need to have a woman president.

I finally convince myself to vote tomorrow. God willing................

[fatlazyless]

So, who will former president George W Bush-43 be voting for, today? That's a good question......... who, who, who is George voting today?

Who knows ..... but maybe, just like Kelly Ayotte .... he may write in Mike Pence?

[Doobs41378]

I think if Hillary ran against any other republican , the republican would have won in a landslide and if Trump had run against any other Democrat, the Democrat would have won in a landslide just because I feel most people are just voting the lesser of 2 evils here.

For me, it's sad to know my favorite candidate is not likely to win but at least I can deny any blame for the troubles ahead.

That's kind of how I feel, who in their right mind would vote for 4 more years of what's been going on?

[SteveA]

Frankly, IMHO, with almost 330 million people in this country, I'm disgusted that these two clowns are the best we could come up with!

It really is a "hold you nose" and vote election. SIGH..

I'm not so sure I agree with you. But I do believe that people need to pay better attention to the actions of their elected officials. Many of these clowns say one thing to get elected and do the complete opposite once elected. Wiki leaks highlighted this for Hillary, but honestly, most of this is out there in the public domain without resorting to stealing emails from campaigns. You just need to pay attention and look. When I see a news report about a candidate that piques my interest, I look for video of the original statement or I'll try to read the actual document that is causing the sensation and find out what the subject actually did or said. These politicians, on both sides, feel they are untouchable because so many people rely on soundbites and entertainment shows for info instead of researching what concerns them. People also vote on promises rather than results. While you need to rely on promises for a first time candidate, after that the voters need to hold them to their promises by critically looking at the results of the candidates term. If the results don't match the intentions, throw them out, too much is at stake.


I think the news programs and papers have seriously hurt themselves this election cycle by trying to excessively influence this election rather than diligently just reporting what is going on, hopefully they will pay dearly by people just ignoring them, not buying news papers that do this and turning off the news programs that are biased. We shall see.

....I just hope that some whack job on either side doesn't do something really stupid like shootings, starting riots, etc. The fanatics on each side this election cycle are nuts. Same goes for the our international foes who might want to send a message of some sort.....I sure hope not.

Totally agree with one of the earlier posts that in our great nation, these two are the "best and brightest" that we could nominate? Are you freakin' kidding me??

When I first became eligible to vote, I asked my parents for advice. They said, "vote your conscience...vote for the person you think would be the best leader". I can honestly say that for the first time ever, I did not vote for one of the two major candidates; I wrote someone in, (a legit leader; not a cartoon character). Some may say that this was a wasted vote, but it was MY vote and I voted my conscience.

I sure hope we get through the coming days/weeks/months without incident.

If Trump win's I fear It will be Hell in certain city's, fires, riots and anything else you can Imagine. I also think that Trump will have attempts on his life for sure. There is no wasted vote if you vote your conscience. Look at the poor republicans in Mass, If that's not a reason for individual voting (not by state) I don't know what would be.

We have been traveling across "America the Beautiful" visiting our most amazing National Parks. When I stood below the incredible Mount Rushmore and the history behind this significant monument I could not help but reflect what we have for our politicians and candidates today. I could not see any of them standing up to the leadership of that time in our great history.

At Mount Rushmore you will see George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln. How did we ever get to where we are today? So sad. But only hope is for God to Bless America and to provide the loving grace and guiding light to bring guidance to the NEW President of United States of America.

The campaigns of the early presidents were rough, possibly rougher than this cycle. We remember them by their accomplishments while in office, not how they got there.

I was thinking the same thing. We all bless America!

Looks like the Trump train just rolled up a big huge win, and shook the world.....good grief! .....big surprise!.......holy smokes! ....... oh well .......that's the way the banana peels or something!

Here in NH.....the numbers just were on the CNN-tv with Hillary up by 47.7% to 47.2%....... 87% vote in ........so's maybe NH will still go with Hillary and she will win the NH battle, while losing the war to the Donald.

It's all over ..... the fat lady has sung!

Without being too glib.........

Just like the lyrics by the Who:

"We don't get fooled again"

[noreast]

I owe all of you Trumpies a big apology, I mocked you when you said he had a chance. Watching the faces of the talking heads was like watching the Seahawks fans when butler picked off that ball in the endzone, Great to watch!

I disagree. I listened to both Trump and Clinton ( believe you meant acceptance rather than congratulations) and thought that they were both heartfelt and meaningful for the audience they were intended for.

Everything about the clintons was (and still is) phony and corrupt.
May they go into a hole and disappear forever.
I fear that may be wishful thinking, however...

From today's Howie Carr radio show.......Howie mentioned that former president George W Bush-43 left his vote ballot choice for president blank, voting for no one.

Ditto that for Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker (R) who also blanked his ballot for president......according to Howie Carr.

I was very surprised by their personal choices to vote "no one" which seems highly unusual.

I was very pleased to cast my vote for Hillary, and am totally confident she will go on to become the greatest president in the history of the USA...... go Hillary go!

Do you think the Clinton's will bring back the thousands of dollars in property they stole the last time they were in the White House?
