Obama won the popular vote TWICE. And scored a huge Electoral victory. But keep telling yourself you almost had it. Originally Posted by Yssup Rider

M.ROMNEY..........Popular Vote:48%/ 59,142,004 - Electoral Votes 206
3.5 million votes out of 121,757,410 million total votes cast is not exactly a landslide in anyone's book.
The very relevant Electoral College votes paints a different picture, certainly.

Three points in a local election ain't much. But when more than 110,000,000 votes were cast, it is.

Especially considering that several recent presidents were unable to achieve a popular majority yet still were elected/reelected. DOUBLY SIGNIFICANT was the fact that the "polls" showed Romney in the lead (snick) and Obama trending down (snick).

You fellas gotta face the facts that the GOP fucked this thing up every way it could. And they're hurtling headlong into a chasm of their own device.

Two facts all the conservatives/Republicans seem to not want to talk about is that the percentage of non-whites of the US population is getting larger each year. Among the non-whites the Democrats enjoy a large percentage over the Republicans. As long as this trend continues Republicans will not be able to elect a President or hold a majority in the Senate. It will be only a matter of time before the Democrats over take the House also.
Of course all of these 'non whites' will want to enjoy the same benefits and success that the Black Community has enjoyed by voting 99 percent Democrat.

But FTR, I do agree with your last sentence, and your second one too for that matter.

Dont be silly.

And quit being so fucking hateful. Trying to help you here man. I don't hate you. But reading your increasingly amped up vitriol makes me pity the fool.

You can't love Israel and hate faegeles! Or anyone for that matter. Anger leads to hatred. Hatred leads to the dark side.

Your choice... You want Mr. T or Yoda?

Here's a COMPROMISE:

I'd vote for a potato over the scum that's in there now. Not that our votes actually count anymore anyway. Carson put bambam in his fucking place when he spoke at the prayer breakfast. It was so awesome, I watched it 3 times.


I would vote for carson even if I have to write him in.

must really suck for a bunch of low information voters to dance over the high information voters.

thanks to GeeW , Willard, and Paulie Boy, I'm pretty sure the republicans have given all voters enough info to judge them by.
