Went out and voted Obama (well my mom did but I pushed all the buttons).

Got free coffee and pumpkin pie. Feels good, man.

I didn't vote. Specifically to piss the internet off just that much more.

-Well that and Rhode Island will elect the democrat by double digits anyways, but mostly to piss you all off

And texas will still go red, doesn't change me from throwing myself onto the popular vote manpile.

Yes, it's kind of gay.

If I was born one year earlier I'd be able to vote, which annoys me so much.

I like Obama in a personal kind of way, but other than that, that's really it. I haven't paid attention to both sides enough to see what they want to do, and to stick with one candidate.

I will say that McCain picking Palin as his VP really didn't convince me to support him or anything.

I support Obama fully but can't vote yet. However, if he does get elected, which he probably will, I'm half expecting a two week Obama presidency before he gets assassinated. His best chance for survival is to make Biden look like a complete tool, I.E. Bush.

I'm kind of thinking the same. Since you know, the KKK Still has an active presence in the USA.

Either way the president is dying in a few weeks, probably. I'd prefer biden to palin.

And neo-nazis, and asshole hillbillies, and the likes.

Whether or not Obama will be assassinated is beyond me. But yeah, I am definitely backing him, despite being six months shy of eighteen. Paraded about in my "Party like a Barackstar" shirt all day... Totally swayed some undecided teachers, methinks.

Exit polls so far:

The states looking good for Obama:

Florida: 52 percent to 44 percent
Iowa: 52 percent to 48 percent
Missouri: 52 percent to 48 percent
North Carolina: 52 percent to 48 percent
New Hampshire: 57 percent to 43 percent
Nevada: 55 percent to 45 percent
Pennsylvania: 57 percent to 42 percent
Ohio: 54 percent to 45 percent
Wisconsin: 58 percent to 42 percent
Indiana: 52 percent to 48 percent
New Mexico: 56 percent to 43 percent
Minnesota: 60 percent to 39 percent
Michigan: 60 percent to 39 percent

The states where McCain is leading in exit polls:

Georgia: 51 percent to 47 percent
West Virginia: 45 percent to 55 percent

Wow, this is pretty damn close in a lot of regions.

Hopefully this works out better than the Canadian elections last month.

-So where's the Obama celebration party happening?

McCain won Kentucky, and Obama won Vermont. So far it's 8 - 3 respectively.

I guess my town is pretty damn racist, because my side of the tracks (i.e., the white side,) is primarily McCain. The other side, the black one, is all Obama.


"REMEMBER PEACE AND PROSPERITY? VOTE DEMOCRATIC."

"Or else."

So far McCain's in the lead, but then again, the states he's won so far are mostly southern or generally red leaning (South Carolina, Kentucky, most likely West Virginia, possibly Virginia and possibly Indiana).

Nevermind. Obama's in the lead 81 to 39 now according to CBS.

THIS JUST IN

TEXAS: SLIGHTLY BLUE ON THE POPULAR VOTE
SUDDENLY, I HAVE FAITH IN TEXAS.

not that it'll last more than an hour but

With 1% of the vote reporting, that is. :;D:

Nader '08 guys

I've actually had enough of Republican bullshit, so yeah.

You hate everyone.

It's not over until it's over.

-Oh and, lol if I could vote, I'd vote McCain.

PS

Did you up and forget who's had the House/Senate for the last two years? Or am I the only one who remembers the Democrats haven't done shit either. OH WOW, DID I JUST SAY THAT?

You don't even know the half of it.

;D

Bill clinton was the only democrat president recently.

Spoilers

He was also the only president recently to have a surplus.

Fix'd.

This chart details both surplus and how often presidents got head.

So should we start a pool when someone/Venge is gonna assassinate Obama?

Where the fuck is JFK? He would dominate that chart.

Firey has already told me

"If Obama gets elected, we're buying guns."

AWKWARD

SILENCE

ENSUES

I've noticed recently that a lot of the people who have flocked to McCain haven't really done that well with the rest of the human race.

LOLOLO HIS FATHER IS A MUSLIM.

OBVIOUSLY HE'S GONNA JUST LET TERRORISTS INVADE USA FOR THE LULZ NOW.

Obama campaign: A campaign of hope for a new future.
McCain campaign: A campaign of fear of Obama's future.

Let's put this in terms that TFS Can understand: The vidya.

WORST CASE SCENARIOS:

=

Strengthened police force, to the point of nigh security lockdown. Percent chance*: Less than 25%



=

Escalated war on terror on iran leads them to use their nukes, resulting in an MAD Scenario for Iran and devestation on US Soil. Percent chance*: 52.9%

*Percents based purely on conjecture

Now, sure, we haven't had a democratic president in 8 years, but that has nothing to do over the Senate/House, they vote on makority every two years. Besides, president can really only do three things, "MAKE BILLS, VETO BILL FOR REVOTE, DECLARE WAR." He/She is not god, someone please get that into their head.

God? No.

Most important seat, currently, in the world?

Yes.

Most important seat in the world is the U.S. President. Yeah, right, what the hell are you on? Nobody listens to America because we're "lol rebals." Stop over exaggerating power.

Nope, most important seat. Period.

Did you look at other markets when our market crashed? They're currently crashing just as hard due to us. Canadian dollar went flaccid thanks to this.

If we go up, the world follows us.

If we go down, the world follows us.

The world will look up and shout 'Save us'.

And I will whisper
No.

We're also, you know, still a major world power and we have the largest economy of any single nation, whether it's going to shit or not.

Exactly. And note, 'Single seat.'

Anyone in the senate has power, yes. But not as much as just that one man.

Let me put it like this, if America falls in any given time in the world, the world more or less will fall. Yea I might be exaggerating a bit, but America is a big huge ass world power in this world and the power of that country is mainly controlled by that one man behind the desk.

It's too much power for one person to hold, in my opinion, but it is true.

But that's how I see it

Obama - 200
McCain - 90.

-When're we having the Obama party?

At Sammi's- Fuck, here comes Nader.

McCain won Texas. 124 now.

Oh shit, that's a surprise.

SO. According to my source at msn.com

The only possible way for McCain to win, is to win the entire west coast + Alaska and Hawaii.

If he loses a single state, it brings him just short of 270.

-Olol and Montana goes to Obama, say hello to your new President.

Surprise ending: California goes red. Oh wait. They're already dirty communist hippies.
