Chris Matthews is glad Superstorm Sandy happened: other Obama twitter fans only want Romney dead
BARACK Obama or Mitt Romney – who had the biggest nutters on their team?
For Obama, there was TV host Chris Matthews.
“I am so proud of the country. To reelect this president and overcoming — not because of the partisanship or even the policies. Here’s an African-American guy with an unusual background — part immigrant background, part African-American background — with all this assault on him from day one. From Mitch McConnell, from the clowns out there that will never be elected, never will be to anything.
“And the way he took it, as someone said, with coolness and charm and dignity and took it and took it and kept moving forward and doing his job. And the American people, and I know we look at these percentage, 40% of white vote. Fine. That’s about right among Democrats in the last couple cycles, three cycles or four. Good work for them. Good work for him. A good day for America.
“I’m so glad we had that storm last week because I think the storm was one of those things. No, politically I should say. Not in terms of hurting people. The storm brought in possibilities for good politics.”
Blimey.
On Twitter, a few opined:
Olivia Pope@Mookiema - “I hope everyone woman that votes for Mitt Romney gets raped & is denied an abortion if it results in a pregnancy. Too far?? Probably Idc tho”
Libby Liston@LebbyListonberg - “Any woman who votes Romney is a disgrace to womankind and should go fucking drown themselves or something with a similar result (death)”
@__demers - “Romney wants to take away women’s rights, so yeah, y’all go ahead and vote for him. I hope you bitches die.— rawr”
laura truby@LauraTruby - “Any woman that votes Romney deserves to get slapped in the face with obamas shlong”
Ashley Marie Carroll@Ashweee_Marie - “Any woman who votes for Romney tomorrow deserves a punch in the boob with a brick”
Andres@Carlitttoooooos - “If any gay man, woman, or other votes for Romney I’m gonna slap you hoe”
@Tomaliciousss - “For every woman that votes for Romney I hope you get pregnant and die giving birth because you won’t be able to get an abortion✌— It’s just †om.”
They wanted to murder Romney:
¥A$ON CL!FTON@SteeveCastro - “i’m gon shoot romney in duh face weather he win or not”
@PaulMurray96 - “Ill personally kill romney if he wins the election”
@CamiDaSOLEKeepa - “I love Obama Lord Knows I Do but I’ll kill Romney Dead before I let Him win this Election”
@emilypietro - “If obama looses i might go kill romney and his vice president so then obama will be forced to be president”
Oh grud:
And Victoria Jackson:

Donald Trump’s deleted Obama tweets
HOW did the election go, Donald Trump? Right after President Barack Obama won four more years (the US Teleprompter Community celebrated wildly, it says here) tsunami-haired gold wrangler Donald Trump took to Twitter.
He called for revolution!
He lost the popular vote by a lot and won the election. We should have a revolution in this country!

The best internet reactions to Barack Obama’s win and Mitt Romney’s loss
WELL, Barack Obama won. Canada can reopen her borders. Mitt Romney can walk freely in the knowledge that no crazy is going to assassinate him or compare him to Hitler. For those bored with the whole shebang, Frank J. Fleming @ tweets: “My dream is to one day vote for president and then never hear about the guy again until the next election.” And on the internet, the mood is mixed:

1975: Ronald Reagan’s pet mouse threatens Presidential bid
WHAT’S that in Barack Obama’s pocket? Is Mitt Romney’s jacket twitching? On November 23, 1975, The National News Extra spotted something nasty in Ronald Reagan’s jacket pocket.
The magazine trilled:
“Everywhere that Ronnie goes, Squeaky is sure to follow. Squeaky should; the disgusting creature ride around in Reagan’s pocket and scares the hell out of little old broads.”

Mitt Romney’s related (by marriage) to Preston North End’s Deepdale Duck
FACT: Mitt Romney’s fourth cousin twice removed is Maria Nash, 32. Her husband, Simon Nash, earns a living as Deepdale Duck, the mascot of Preston North End Football Club.
True enough, Simon Nash is seven degrees separated from Mitt Ronmey, and may be more closely related to Kevin Bacon. But Kevin Bacon never was much of a football mascot.

Tony Blair refuses to pay student teacher intern
TONY Blair has been using interns at his mega-millions empire of peace-thru-banking. On the website Graduate Frog, we learn of a graduate who scored a three-month internship at Tony Blair’s private office. Good news. Tone opens doors. But the graduate would be required to work unpaid for five days a week. He could do four but not five. Working five days would mean the graduate forgoing his part-time job as a teaching assistant.
Tony Blair’s office told him via email:
“Sorry…the role has now been filled by someone who was available for the full 5 days.”

This letter says BBC tried to gag Question Time panel on Jimmy Savile Newsnight story
JULIA Ockenden is Head of Public Affairs at the BBC. She wrote a letter to Tory chairman Grant Shapps. The BBC wanted the Newsnight story squashed. She says the “notion that internal pressure was applied [to canning Newsnight's investigation into Savile's sex abuse] is a malicious rumour…” Schapps should not discuss such untruth on the BBC’s Question Time. And nor should Michael Green:

Why is Barroso lying to us about the Robin Hood Tax?
A CERTAIN Mr. Barroso tells us today that the Robin Hood Tax is a really wonderful idea:
Mr Barroso said the legal requirements and conditions had been met and he did not believe the tax would undermine the single market if it were imposed across limited parts of the European Union. “I am delighted to see that 10 member states have indicated their willingness to participate in a common financial transaction tax,” he said. “This tax can raise billions of euros of much-needed revenue for member states in these difficult times.”

ED Miliband tell the TUC faithful massed in London for an anti-austerity protest that David Cameron is “clueless“. He added:
“They [Tories] leave young people out of work while the bonuses at the banks carry on. They even have a Chancellor of the Exchequer who tries to travel first class on a standard class ticket. It’s one rule for those at the top and another rule for everybody else: everybody like you who plays their part and does the right thing.”

George Osborne tries to bunk First Class train fare on Virgin service
GEORGE Osborne’s little PR disaster. Grab a Gregg’s pastry and listen up:
Chancellor George Osborne did travel in first class on a standard class ticket today, Virgin Trains told ITV News. But Jim Rowe, a Virgin Trains spokesman, said Mr Osborne had no direct communication with Virgin Trains staff.
An officer from the Metropolitan Police, escorting the Chancellor, alerted the train manager in advance that Mr Osborne did not have the correct ticket, Mr Rowe said. Once on the train, the train manager informed the police officer that the Chancellor would have to pay an upgrade fare, a request which Mr Osborne’s aide initially refused.
But after asking for a second time, the Chancellor’s aide agreed that the extra £160 would indeed be paid.
Paying upfront is for plebs.
The story is, of course, all about class. You can’t blame Osborne for wanting a table and some privacy to help him work. Class. The word hangs like a dark cloud over the Tory Cabinet…
