As per Jakub, all I can offer is a personal viewpoint, but all my friends were pro-Obama, anti-Clinton. Though I'm not sure why; probably mostly to do with the sense of entitlement - the most ridiculous lying wasn't until later. EDIT: I can't watch it while at work, but see here for at least one video clip of Palin being denounced on O'Reilly's show, as nonnus mentioned. [My site] [Tetrominoes] |

If Clinton had won, the timeline for 24 years (at least) would be...

Well, it'd always be better than a single dynasty. The Bushes could even switch to the monarchy nomenclature altogether: George I, George II the Great, etc. --------------------------- |

Quote: The Bushes could even switch to the monarchy nomenclature altogether: George I, George II the Great, etc. And here thats what I thought they were doing.. George H, George W... Just that they got the letters for roman numerals wrong. -- |

What Edgar said, and: I wouldn't be surprised if there were. I'm aware of three and I'm not really that interested. [My site] [Tetrominoes] |

Obama wins North Carolina! 364-163. I hear that he trails in Missouri by 6,489. But there are only 7,085 provisional ballots, so it looks like McCain will prevail there. |

Obama wins NE-02! Obama 365, McCain 162. It's been 40+ years since a Democrat won in Nebraska! |

No, Missouri (11) is too close to call due to the number of provisional ballots that were cast. Those are basically contested votes that require the voter to submit additional proof that he was voting in the proper place. Those should be resolved this upcoming week, but McCain probably won as Obama would have to get over 90% of the provisional ballots (assuming they all counted) in order to carry the state. |

I was wondering why the Republicans chose McCain for this campaign. They should have chosen Arnold Schwarzenegger. Ok, there is a law that immigrants can't become presidents, but he is the president of a country of 35 million people already (much bigger than my country). Obama is a showman, and he should have had another showman as an opponent. |
