The GOP will be a steaming, smoldering mess on Nov. 7.

Will be a GLORIOUS day indeed...

That's not what the article says. Read it aloud, slowly.

It'll come to you. You're so close.

We're all rooting for you.

It's impossible to know how any of these people actually voted until the votes are tallied.

Umm, the OP contains a home-cooked electoral map that loads about 100 extra electoral votes on Obama. The "real" RealClearPolitics map is 201-191 Obama, with 146 votes in tossup states.

It makes sense that a true-blue Obama supporter would turn to fantasy as a guiding light, since that is what animates the Obama economic plan. Too bad about those millions of people in unnecessary poverty as a result.

It will be interesting to see how the wingers respond if Obama wins the election, and Romney wins the popular vote. Expect all sorts of raging, whining, lawsuits, etc.etc.

I will come back here and apologize if they take it graciously.

Actually in some ways it is possible. If there are polls.

In North Carolina just shy of 1,000,000 people have voted, about 200,000 more then at this point in 2008, and according to a PPP survey early voters they are splitting 57-42 Obama.

Ohio also shows a 2-1 advantage for Obama among early voters.

At least if this happens he can't claim he has a mandate.

Really? Bush barely squeaked out an electoral victory in 2004 and thought it was a mandate.
