I think I've been the only conservative on here that first claimed Obama is going to win, but now I have no idea who is and so not staking a claim on any winner. For me, it's too close to call.

The flaw in your poll is that a winner probably won't be declared on election nite, it is possible that huge absentee/provisional ballot counts won't be made for a week or more.

I am willing to accept cash offers for individual bets up to $10K per bet that Romney will win. Any takers? I can arrange an escrow account for actual and faithful individuals with my accountant.

Any libs want to put your money where your mouth is?

Aw crap. That's what happens when your typing in between filling out weekly payroll reports. Guess I better check to make sure Pedro and crew get the correct amount on their checks.

About Last Night... (Season 12, Episode 12) - Full Episode Player - South Park Studios

Reminds me of this. At the end of the episode, the Obama supporters are partying, the McCain supporters were killing themselves. Then the next day, after everyone woke up, everyone got on with their lives, and not a damned thing changed.
^^^^^This. Really? Gary Johnson the dog poop guy? That is a protest vote. LOL

Ooh! How about we get to pick a poster who doesn't get to post for a whole week starting November 7th!

No, you're not. I predicted that awhile ago, as well. (Which would disgust me beyond belief if I'm right.) And yes, I wrote it on some CD thread. Unfortunately, I can't seem to go back in to my history that far, keeps telling me those pages don't exist after about page 5.

I can't take any bet on this one because my candidate is not on the poll.

Wow, that's awesome. I commend you for your conviction. I would bet you 10K if the GOP did not have extensive experience in voter fraud. And Ohio was already hacked once, back in 2004. No reason it won't happen in 2012. If the playing field were fair I would take your bet, but I don't trust any campaign crawling with neocons, like Romney's.

Its a small possibility, but it is there. We'll likely know on election night, but no guarantees.
