Where do you see that? Matchbook?

What's the best channel to watch coverage on? Preferably neutral or slightly Romney leaning. And wantitall, true, but I don't think they are going blue.

Obama was over -500

still sticking with the poll garbage

Limited English channels in Costa Rica, got CNN in HD so that's what I have on now.

As long as I win my Romney Virginia bet I could care less

Thanks, might switch to it. The guy on CBS just commented how 23% of the voters in NC are African American, and then said "and 96% of THEM vote for Obama", so I'm ready to find a new channel.

Obama is -1000

just give up lou

[SBR Lou]

Romney up by about 900,000 votes in popular vote. People are speaking, too bad he may win one and lose the other.

Only 5 % of votes tallied

[Nats' Fan]

Just like 2000, huh?

[SBR Lou]

I love how every time CNN is forced to admit an area Romney is doing well, even on the bloody popular vote for fuks sake, its gotta be "oh it's just this or that many percent"

[Robert Ferringo]

As long as I win my Romney Virginia bet I could care less

Haha! Me too! That was the biggest early bet I made. But over the last week had to pound Obama, no matter what the odds were. Easy money.

[Robert Ferringo]

If Florida goes blue this is going to be a bloodbath.

Fox News studio is like a morgue right now. They can't even muster excitement. Hilarious.

[Robert Ferringo]

I wonder if Mittens is having second thoughts about going with Ryan. I thought he would've been much smarter to go with Rubio. I think it would've locked up Florida and would've cut into the Latino vote nationwide. Ryan was such a reach.

not sure WTF youre talking about I predict final tally Obama 298 Romney 230. If Romney by some miracle pulls off Florida then its 259-259 then what?

That is why I said all along only 2 states matter, Ohio and Florida. Obama is going to win Ohio so now it comes down to Florida. If Romney wins they probably tie, or maybe Romney steals one of those small states and he wins the whole thing, but basically both of them need Florida to win.

[CanuckG]

Wont be a tie

[eidolon]

Republicans retain control of the house + Obama = another crappy 4 years

[wantitall4moi]

Wont be a tie

Give Obama 237 and Romney 206.

We have Ohio, Nev, Fla, Col, NH, VA, Iowa, Wisconsin to give away.

Obama gets Ohio and NH thats 22 more for Obama, that gets him to 259. Romney definitely winning VA, and more than likely Nev.

So that leaves Iowa, Wis, Col, Fla.

I give Romney Col and Iowa.

So then we're down to Fla and Wis.

If Romney wins both of those he ties. I figure Obama wins them both in the end. So my original prediction of 298-230 was slightly off, should have been 308-220.

As i have said forever, deck massively stacked against Republicans, Whole map is basically red except for the big population states. But because they have a lot more elctoral college votes Dem have the built in bias. before the thing even started Dems had, Cal (55), New York (29) Ill(20) and Pa(20) Thats 124 of the 270 needed so 4 states already in pocket give Dems 46%, of the votes they need.

Thats why I have said it for years that the electoral college system is a complete farce. Its worse than the BCS.

Romney winning Nev?? Obama was -900 in Nev and is way ahead. Obama likely wins COL too.
