The Last Last Election Thread

[Guynemer]

Louisiana, 9 EV

Obama 195
McCain 85

[FrostyBoy]

yeah, I predict a lot of similar internet pictures just like that one for the next 4 years.

Fail pics will finally take a rest. Success pics will be the in thing.

Guy, since Obama has OH and PA, can you know acknowledge he's won? Pwease?

[KrazyHorse]

Yup. Looks like he'll take VA too. He's neck and neck with the bulk of his Northern Va support still waiting to come in.

[Proteus_MST]

Looks great for Obama.
If Obama wins I am curious about the things the christian fundamentalists will say, for example as quoted on http://www.fstdt.com
After christian fundamentalists during the election campaign already titled Obama as Antichrist who would either lead the USA to Armageddon or convert it to a muslim state with the sharia as law,
they surely will await the rapture every day, after Obama really gets elected as president

[Guynemer]

If Obama truly has 195 now, plus holds onto CA, OR, WA, and HI, (which he will) that makes 272 EV.

FL, VA, CO, NM, NC, NV are effectively irrelevent.


Although...

New Mexico, 5 EV
West Virginia, 5 EV

Obama 200
McCain 90

[KrazyHorse]

Did you just project NM for McCain?

EDIT: you changed it to blue...okay.

[Boris Godunov]

NBC calls NM for Obama.

That plus CA, OR and WA gives him the White House. He's won.

[FrostyBoy]

Almost feel sorry for McCain, he won't get a chance to do this again. Maybe Obama will let him clean his desk and vacuum the floor.

You go ahead. I'm gonna hold my breath until the polls close on the West Coast. Then, I'm gonna savor the **** outta this.


Seriously, mea culpa. Mea maxima culpa. As I stated several times here on Poly, I did not for a second think that a black man could get elected in today's America. I am so very, very happy and grateful to be proven wrong.

Yeah... it's over. Obama wins Ohio. It's almost impossible now for McCain to get the needed votes.

[Ben Kenobi]

He's that far ahead in Ohio?

[KrazyHorse]

Oh, Ben. It's nice to see you again. Will you be joining us in the real world?

[Guynemer]

McConnell projected to win KY-Sen.


How on Earth haven't TX, KS, MS, SD been called for GOP yet?
