      lol. waste of money. you do know there is only one possible way this can happen right? and it would mean romney has to win in iowa, where he is down an average of 5.5 in a poll of polls. that is just one state where romney is down.

      really don't understand the thinking of people considering it 'good' value, when the poll of polls predicted every state right in the last election.

        Did not realize that, thank you. Should be interesting tonight to see who wins.

          this is the outcome that would have to happen.

          What's your forecast for the 2012 presidential election? Build your electoral map here.

            Yeah Neverstopper youre right. I was more interested in the fact that we could have Romeny president and Biden as VP.

              I bet assassination plots on the president would be 10x the normal knowing it would be a member of a different party to take his place.

                Check your math guys. I don't think this is possible at this point.

                    What makes you guys think the Senate would put a Democrat in that spot?

                    if the GOP when's the Senate, they put in a Republican
                    if the Democrats hold the Senate, my thinking is they would put in a Republican so if the administration fails they can fully blame 1 party.

                    I do not believe that the Constitution mandates a separate party, just a separate vote

                      25:1 is not enough. There is a path for 269-269 but it's exceedingly unlikely at this point.
