Romney is the next President

as much as despise romeny i think the man will win. and he will win simply for the fact people don't like Obama because they think he is Kenyan and a Muslim. I just hope that those who voted for Romeny suffer the most.

It's too early to call. Especially due to many people still voting, and on election day most of the votes actually come in.

I'm hoping Obama wins. Romney would just be a step backwards and the GOP is too extreame right now, I don't want them in office until they rethink their direction as a party. Whatever happened to the more moderate conservatives in the party?

Isn't Romney a religious nut job?

It did in Alberta.Pollsters were predicting a Wild Rose minority/ majority and when it came time to vote the PC party pulled off another majority.

What I'm trying to say is that using a bunch of stats to declare a party the winner a week or two before the election is stupid because you don't know what may happen on election day since the US election is so tight and I used the Alberta election as an example to emphasize that.

[QUOTE="KC_Hokie"]Obama is losing early voters when he lead by 20%+ in 2008. He's toast. Time to box up his **** for the move back to Chicago.

You don't seem to understand how polling or the electoral college works. Democrats are currently polling ahead in just about every swing state in early voting (still too close to call though). National Gallup polls are irrelevant if the democrats are winning Ohio, Wisconsin, Florida and so on.

Not to mention Gallup is the only poll that is showing such an advantage to Romney.

Nationally. But Obama is winning where it counts. It's almost mathematically impossible for Republicans to win the election without Ohio. In fact no Republican has won without it. Democrats are polling ahead there in early voting. It's how the Electoral College works.

That's not to say Obama will win. But your Gallup poll doesn't prove anything.

I still don't see Romney winning, unfortunately. I think Obama will win the states he has to but Romney will take the popular vote thus exposing the the archaic and outdated EC.

That isn't possible. The Constitution ensures the freedom of Religion and Religious ideals and expression, but you cannot force or impose Religious institutions unto others. One cannot say "I'm making it a law where everyone has to go to church" nor could one make a law where they ban people from going to church.

There is no chance of a theocracy happening, it goes against the founding of the US. Which was founded on the basis of religious freedom (among many other things).

You're still missing my point.You're using stats(early voting results) to declare the winner of a race already.The media was using results(from pollsters) to declare the winner of the Alberta election before voting happened.They were using reasons like history to justify thier choice(in this case the fact conservative parties have a tendency to get replaced by another conservative party about every couple of decades).When it came time to vote the pollsters were owned really hard because of people's perceptions of the Wild Rose party and thei's a chance you could be owned to.

Yes the Electoral College system needs to go. It serves no purpose in the modern day age. Popular vote is the only one that makes sense now.

It's interesting how, a few months ago he had a snowball's chance in hell (judging from the polls), but now it's looking like a real neck and neck race.MrPraline

But if the laws made are determined on religious grounds is that not a theocracy?

You still don;t get my point.:lol:

Stats can't decide the winner of a election until the election happens.:lol:

btw, did anyone notice that Gallup found the results of their survey to have minimal political impact?

And that more Republicans have voted early than Democrats at this point?

And that the difference is 1% in voting intention (well within the +/-5% margin of error commonly accepted)?

...well, did anyone?

Meh, there's also never been a black president but look what happened.

you know if you didn't spam your pic, and repeat like a parrot the people on the opposition and those in the middle might listen to you a bit more seriously.

well i'm done wastin' time. hell i'm not even saying Romney can't win, that's a real possiblity, i'll just save my energy with people who've got more to say then repeat the same phrases again and again.

i will lol if a mormon actually becomes the president of the united states

[QUOTE="super600"]

[QUOTE="KC_Hokie"]k...but America isn't Alberta. There are statistical trends that help determine the winner and one of those is if the democrat loses early voting.

The use of polls/stats failed in Alberta and produced an unlikely winner and the same could happen in the US election
