‘There are zero electoral votes in the State of Denial’
A funny line from Marc Thiessen.
Political commentators, remember to turn your clocks back
Not back an hour, but back to 2008.
The day after
Thoughts on the day after the election, and possible new coalitions for the Donald Trump era.
How the election may affect the Supreme Court’s current docket
Yesterday's election will influence the work of the Supreme Court in obvious and not-so-obvious ways.

Your candidate got more of the popular vote? Irrelevant.
Just because a presidential candidate won the popular vote total on election day does not mean that presidential candidate would have prevailed under a national popular-vote system.
 
O masterful cartoonist, we are in awe of your soothsaying powers
I'm not sure whether Scott Adams's analysis of the election is right -- but since Adams is one of the few people who actually showed predictive skill, I thought it was worth linking to his post-election thoughts.
 
“Reflections on the election”
A nice post by Ted Folkman (Letters Blogatory), a longtime critic of our new President-elect.
Justices Frankfurter and Jackson on executive power
A few passages seemed to strike a chord.
