[Reeve]

So who's winning? I'm English lol and the coverage isn't that big over here, and I cba to turn on the TV either.

The first polls don't close for another hour and a half.

Dolan shall win ! nah but hopefully Obama, wich i strongly believe

[Fuzzzie]

Looks like a non-American, alarmist, end of the world scenario. Let me guess, all this plays out on 12/21/12 as a result of Romney winning?

Please avoid arguments. Its just an opinion.

[Bakis]

Funny, whatever the outcome will be the two parties are forced to make peace and deal with the deficit before the country goes bankrupt.
There is some hope of cooperation in this mess after all

[ScottsdaleHokie]

I don't follow your meaning.

You don't really have to worry about Romney winning. That ship has sailed. You SHOULD be a bit worried about the house and senate races.

Romney is going to will in a landslide today. The race will be over before the polling places on the west coast are even closed.

[titan972]

I actually tend to agree with this. I think good change is generally slow change, there's a lot of bad that can come from trying to shake things up too much.

Welcome to the Republican party...

What makes you think Romney is going to win in a landslide when all the evidence is pointing to the contrary?

Maybe, who knows. But hey, lets not try and paint me as a nutter who thinks the universe is about to implode because of him. Everything I mentioned is fact, and while he may not keep to his promises, and china might not increase their interest rates as much because of it, I do know that many high-profile companies around the world are preparing for the U.S. to start reducing their payments to other nations.

If you're going to start labeling people and making assumptions, you might want to get a clue on the facts first.

[Raybourne]

I think holding an election on the weekend would actually deter a lot of voters.

Well I think it would be multifaceted: people who hate the influence of religion would see a decrease, all the drunken party college goers wouldnt vote because they're too hung over, and the hard working people who work weekdays would use their time off to vote, instead of their unquestionable right to democracy being denied by their boss.

I'll keep this in mind, and we'll see tomorrow.

Yeah, cooperation died when both parties radacalized and developed a "with us or against us" mentality. What we need is another Johnson to force things through Congress. or another T. Roosevelt to cut through all the BS.

Closest to that I can think of is Chris Christie.

[Tsimp]

I voted for Gary Johnson. Some people believe that it's a waste of a vote, but I will never compromise my beliefs to vote someone out of office.

Now now, don't make us look bad! Seriously, Romney is just another David Cameron: full of embarrassments and hypocrisies, and is generally a douche.

[Getreuer]

Can someone give me a status? Is it 201-191 for Obama at this moment?

[conscript]

This is clearly a stereotype, but I can absolutely picture Christie yelling "You don't fuck with Jersey" when a Dem or a member of the fringe in his party tries to block something he supports.

[Reeve]

It's 0-0 at the moment. We'll start to know more in a little over an hour.

[Shadoweye]

polling that is modeled on 08' numbers is not evidence to the contrary.

[Zaika]

Can someone give me a status? Is it 201-191 for Obama at this moment?

Technically, it's nothing. No polls have closed. However, that is how it stands if you agree on what the battleground states are. If you put PA back into play, then its 181-191.

Not denying that at all.

Heh yeah, but i kidna admire that. When it comes to the good of his people, he doesnt give a flying fuck about party politics.
