TOO BAD

You know the more you buy into all this polling crap, the farther and harder your fall's going to be. I can't wait.

Do yourself a favor and check out the polling data a month before the election of recent past presidential elections. If you don't learn from history, you're doomed to repeat it.

While I appreciate peridactyl's enthusiasm, I try to never brag about an outcome until it's all said and done. I've been bitten in the ass too many times. Such as this past weekend, when I might have, ever so slightly, prematurely spouted off about OU. I think I jinxed them.

Unless you and your cousins are planning on voting multiple times, don't hold your breath. Or on the other hand, go ahead..
... It only hurts for a short time, and then it's over.......

Don't worry, the left wing group ACORN has already assured that lots of voters have been registered several times so they can vote multiple times.

OMG

Can't account for all the idiots in the world.

This is a testament to the uninformed electorate in this country. On both sides. (...."Obama is an Arab....")
Really really embarassing how dumb Americans can be

Don't worry that's 'alot' different than hanging chads, or disenfranchised seniors getting turned away at the polls.

Reminds me of Jay Leno's bit where he asks questions that most Americans SHOULD know like "What countries border the U.S." and they answer stuff like "Ummm...China and Russia?".

I've been saying this for months. Blacks are voting for him solely because he's black. Hillary's numbers supported that as well. No president gave out more handouts and freebies to blacks in this country than Clinton, and Hillary worked hard for those very same government leaching, inner-city trashballs herself, but when it came time to vote they turned on her...with Oprah's fat ass leading the charge. White liberals are voting for him based on skin color as well. A black candidate to them is what a pail full of dicks is to Lance Bass. If Obaba were white you wouldn't see nearly the level of arousal that these orgying fags have for this socialist piece of filth.

The hanging chads weren't a purposeful attempt by anyone at rigging an election. As far as disenfranchised seniors, that may be legitimate and I'm not saying that didn't happen (I need more info) but this thing by ACORN is far more widespread and systematic.

I heard Howard Stern ask a model on his show what the capitol of New York was. She asked "New Jersey?". Now that's pretty hard to believe.

I actually felt this way at one point, during the primaries. I thought that the democrat PTB felt the only way to undercut Hillary properly, was to find a black candidate...because a black candidate would strip hilary of her once black base. In effect, that's exactly what happened....

Seriously, you see nothing wrong with changing election law prior to voting day from three displaced corners counting as a vote, and changing it to looking for a dimple or mark? That'd be like the Bills filing a suit with the NFL to have the goalposts widened by 5 ft after Norwood missed that kick in SB25. You see nothing wrong with that of course right?

Technically, Russia is a correct answer.

Changing the rules after the contest is finished to try to get a different result isn't it????
Apples and apples.

Yeah, reminds me of the Man Show...when they had a 13 year old kid go out with a sign, getting women to sign a petition to 'Stop the womans suffrage"

I appreciate your concern, considering how unbelievable (and I mean that literally)it was that this country voted in Bush "could I be more of a DOOFUS" twice.

Maybe the allure of voting for unqualified dumbos (some may say McCain isn't a dumbo, but he chose one as his VP nominee, so what does that say about him? still hold sway with some on this Board, but it doesn't seem that this is a representative sample. THANK GOD. I can sleep better tonight!!

How is that changing rules? Court cases are BASED on intent. If there is a dimple on a voting card, doesn't that tell you intent? How is that changing rules?

I'm with you on what you say, I'm just not going to say anything about who's going to win because I'm a dyed in the wool jinx.

Because the rule at the time voting took place was 3 dislodged edges of a chad. That was the rule. The Florida state court changed it to try to get a different result.
Who's to say someone didn't put the pin in for a candidate and thought about punching it and decided not to? They tried to force that vote by assuming they intended to punch it, no?

Dan, I gotta ask about that doll: could you make the same case to an African-American? If they saw the doll and you explained how you saw the doll, would they agree with you? NO, lol!

Speaking of racism, I heard a college professor talk about the Bradley effect and she said that there really could be a reverse-Bradley effect: that when white people get in the privacy of the poll booth they might vote for Obama and not tell anyone. I hope she is right.

I can't believe you are being so obtuse!

If there are no other marks on any other choice....but there is a dimple, or 1, 2, or 3 dislodged edges....that must've been the choice intended. Am I missing something here?!

Me obtuse? Repeat after me. At the time of vote counting, 3 dislodged corners constituted a vote. Not 2, not 1, and certainly not a dimple. That was the law. What the court tried to do was move the goalpost so Norwood's kick was good. Thus changing the outcome. Would you have supported the Buffalo Bills suit against the NFL in that case?
