My feeling is that whichever side loses they will take it to court for years claiming this and that about it being unfair due to the hurricane.
Aye, Sandy will probably be a big talking point for a while.
I don't know why? Really none of the places hit are 'battleground' states, except for NC and Virginia, and those aren't really the places having problems. Unless the GOP somehow carries the northeast, it is really a non-issue for the federal elections. It probably will be an issue for their local elections if they do them on the same day as the federal ones.
It seems that Obama has enough EC votes to win without Ohio or Florida at the moment. Of course he also seems to be winning Ohio pretty steadily and Florida early voting is not looking good for the GOP.
One day left and the nightmare that is pre-election debating can come to a close... So we can then welcome in the nightmare of post-election QQing!
Though more on topic I guess, an Obama victory is looking very likely by this point (If it hadn't already), but stranger things have happened, so I'm not letting my guard down entirely.
If Obama wins, Chris Christie is going to be taking a lot of heat. I mean he's already being ridiculed by many conservative pundits for saying Obama was doing a great thing for New Jersey. I actually gained a lot of respect for him. I'm not completely clear on some of his policies, but hes definitely someone I could see myself voting for in 2016.

I love how you're all praising Christie. If the situation had been reversed, that is, some significant democrat praising Mitt Romney, you would've all called the person a traitor or similar.
No. Democrats are not Republicans. Democrats are not expected to march in lock-step, nor do they call RINO when someone like Christie or Powell support a candidate across the 'divide'. But no, please, continue to throw stones instead of trying to build any kind of bi-partisan cooperation that has been missing the past couple of congresses.
I loved the way Christie reacted to Steve Doocy after being asked if Mitt Romney is going to be surveying the damage with him.
I'm sure there would be some people that would do this, but to paint us all with the same brush is annoying.
I find it incredibly refreshing to hear candidates of both sides compliment eachother when warranted. And it turns me off when one side cures cancer, and the other side blames them for creating a problem of overpopulation.
So basically, no, you're wrong.
