      I really don't like Obama. He is a fairly generic pandering douche, totaly disengenuous.

      On the bright side, if he wins, the next time someone complains about institutional racism(in places where there is none), I won't need to be PC, I can actually tell them they are suffering from a persecution complex.

        1. Post your predictions for the winner of the democratic nomination.
        Hillary Clinton

        2. Post your prediction for the winner of the republican nomination.
        Rudolph Giuliani

        3. Post your prediction for the winner of the 2008 U.S. presidential election.
        Rudolph Giuliani

        4. Post your prediction for the difference in the popular vote between the Republican and Democratic candidates. If X gets 48% and Y gets 45%, then the difference is 3%. We will round to the first decimal place, so if it was 48.1% and 45%, then the difference is 3.1%
        50% to 47.5%, or a difference of 2.5%

        5. Post your prediction for the third party candidate is who wins the most votes.
        Ron Paul

        6. Post your prediction for the % of the popular vote the highest ranked third party candidate receives, again, rounded to the first decimal.
        2.5%
        I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

              Um, that's what I was saying. EPW opined that the last time we saw a 12% margin was the Reagan-Carter election; I pointed out that the last time was Reagan's re-election, not his race against Carter, and that Reagan did not beat Carter by 12 points. I suppose I could have been clearer, but I feel the need to defend my lifelong presidential-election nerddom.

                            Don't believe it. He'll have a ton of money and a ton of people telling him to run.

                              I am proboably going to vote for him if he runs independant. I loathe all the other canidates who have any shot at all. If he does well as an independant, he could get the nomination for 2012.

                                So I hear Huckabee has backing by Chuck Norris. With that kind of backing, how can he lose? That's why I picked him.
