The establishment will win the election. The American people will continue to lose.

I honestly feel like it's to close to know. Last election it was pretty clear McCain didn't have much chance against Obama.

LOL who voted "Other"?

Whatever you're smoking, please share!

Up until the economy crapped out, McCain was leading. McCain stopped his campagin and Obama kept swinging.

Washington State is a "Winner-Take-All" state. 11 Electoral votes guaranteed to Obama and the blues, despite the fact that the state is mostly red geographically. The Seattle/Tacoma/Everett metro area always carries the majority of the vote. Apple farmers and the central and eastern portion of the state, have no chance.

no they can't, those states passed laws that give the winner of the National popular vote the electoral college votes for that state.
only 2 states have proportional electoral college votes Maine and Nebraska.
Oddly enough it's all blue states that passed this law.
This could very well turn into unintended consequences.

Here's the thing about this election.

Obama is the first black president. It would be exceedingly embarrassing to the black community if he didn't win reelection. Only a party composed entirely racists would want to do that. Mitt Romney is racist simply for running against Barack Obama. In fact, he's even more racist than John McCain, because where McCain simply tried to prevent black achievement in the first place, Romney is actively trying to undo black progress.

A Republican victory in November is the absolute worst thing that could happen to the party. It would be absolutely devastating. Republicans would no longer be able to argue that they have equality as their core interest, because they would have taken away the first black president. Freeing slaves and ending segregation are simply the actions of long-dead historic figures who have nothing to do with the Republican party. The GOP of today are vicious racists who really do want to see all black folk back in chains.

If Romney wins, within twenty to thirty years there won't be a Republican party. They will dissolve as everyone decides they're too racist to receive any more votes. The Democrats will split in half so that the United States feels like it has a choice in elections.

Republicans now have to decide whether you'd rather have Romney as president, or see the party die. It sucks, but that's just the hand you've been dealt.
