Republicans begin inquest into expected US election defeat The Republican party has already begun an inquest into what they expect to be a heavy defeat at the polls on Tuesday.

advertisement

The party is set to lose not just the presidency, but see its representation in Congress plunge to levels not seen in decades, as votes are also being held for all 435 House of Representative seats and 35 out of 100 Senate seats.

Senior figures in the party are already picking over the bones of the George W Bush era and turning their attention to reviving a Republican brand that has been in rapid decline since control of Congress was lost in the 2006 mid-term elections.

There are warnings of blood-letting, purges and a battle for the soul of the party ahead between the religious Right and moderates.

Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

"...under our constitution one of our freedoms is the right to decide to be wrong."

I always wondered how to express this idea. I can choose to be wrong. Like flat earth or witches.

    McCain Repeatedly Voted Against American Consumers and for Rich Oil Companies. In 2005, *McCain twice voted against legislation* that would have temporarily taxed oil company profits ***and provided consumers with a tax credit.***[Senate Roll Call Vote #341, 11/17/05; Senate Roll Call Vote #331, 11/17/05]

    MCCAIN CAN'T GIVE US A BREAK BECAUSE HE'S ALREADY GIVEN IT TO THE OIL CO'S!

    Though it seems a little off topic I'd like to say that not only will he not tax them he wants to give them tax breaks and has allowed American and International oil companies to drill within our legal sea boundary without paying our nation royalties. It's our oil not the governments!

    Sometimes after spending the day thinking and typing a little regression is in order.
