Default Presidential Race on Election Day

Who's gonna take it? Personally, I think Obama takes it and in the end, it won't be as close as people are predicting.

What do you think?

Obama takes this without a doubt. However, the fact that Romney has already locked up this many electoral votes just speaks to how retarded MANY people in the US are. I seriously wonder how ANY Republican voter can trust Romney on ANYTHING. He has had virtually every position about every issue. Add the smear campaign the Republicans used against Kerry eight years ago, that he was a flipflopper and didn't stand for anything, and Republicans come off as ignorant hypocrites.

The real question in this election is how many seats shift in Congress.

Both guys are power hungry liars and politics is a bigger waste of time than wiping my ass with a handful of stinging nettles.

However, simply for entertainment value I hope Romney wins. I think it would be funny to see people get all worked up. Maybe the hard core on each side would wage war with each other and I would have something to watch on tv for a few weeks.

Totally agree. But I think George W proved just how retarded many people in the US are.

Personally, I don't care much for politics.

I think Obama will take it though.

What I learned during all of this is that people who do not live in the United States do not know what happens in every day life and therefore cannot give a true opinion on the situation.

Funny, I think I have heard this opinion somewhere on these boards before??

I agree but you didn't really expect Kentucky to go Obama's way did ya?

Virginia is the big one. If Romney loses VA he's toast. Florida, surprisingly is at 50/50 which is a shock too.

Also,no Rep pres has won w/out Ohio.
