The Presidential Betting Pool

[2drSE-i]

Please, for the love of God/Allah/The Lizard King don't turn this into a pissing match or Political argument. I just want to know, who do you think will win the election?

Remember to vote in the poll!

[cygnus x-1]

It's going to be a nail biter for both sides, that's for sure.

Either way this election goes, it's likely going to be close, at least by popular vote.

Anybody see the readers digest interviews? I get tired of the tv blasts and dint even pay attention but the rd article was intersting. Good bathroom reading lol most very important decisions are made on the can:D

[Dr_Snooz]

Anyone expect this "frankenstorm" to tip the scales at all? Will it push back the election?

[ghettogeddy]

oops, hope you don't notice that...
Yes it could very well cripple the New England area a week or so, maybe even upper East and Great lakes region too.

[cygnus x-1]

can i vote for Roseanne Barr

Yes! You can vote for a write in. But why would you want to?

Dear God I hope not. The election season is already too long.

I haven't owned a TV in years, but I do end up watching broadcast TV every few years when some significant event (like 9/11) is taking place. Tonight I'm watching the Sandy coverage by streaming MSNBC. Watching Chris Matthews is making me remember why I don't have a TV. I'm going to go barf now.

I can't remember ever watching MSNBC and NOT regretting it. FOX and CNN are only slightly better.

[ghettogeddy]

The sad part is that I'm a liberal too. I should be agreeing. Instead I'm enraged that "liberal" is being so misrepresented.

It's ok, I consider myself a conservative and absolutely cannot stand the lunacy of most of Fox News programming. Oklahoma, unfortunately, is 95% "Hannity Nation"

Sadly there are a LOT of people who believe most of what these "news" networks present. There are small nuggets of truth here and there, but by and large it's more entertainment than news.

I didn't think they did either, but:

Born and raised in Texas, I still find it strange we are in the red on that map. There are so many people with concealed handguns here. As far as the election goes, the president is not as important as we think. We are also still using a system that eliminates the popular vote. Initially it was put in place by the founders because most people could not read, and they felt it was reckless. At that time we also did not have a network of knowledge, and communication that fits in the palm of our hands.

"Entertainment" is putting it euphemistically. I'm inclined to use the word "lies."

[cygnus x-1]

No he's really not. Although he is important as a *leader* to set the direction for the country. Even though I fundamentally disagree with much of Obama's policy/philosophy, I was really hoping he would be truly different from the typical politicians we always get. But alas, he is exactly the same.

It would be quite interesting to know what the founders would have done things with today's technology.

LOL! I wasn't making a judgement of truthfulness. But yes, entertainment can be fiction or non-fiction. There is also a lot of interpreting involved.

Caught this on a friend's facebook wall and it made me laugh

"I predict that Obama will take an early lead. Until the Republicans get off work"

[2drSE-i]

Also interesting to note, 3geez is an odd cross-section. Obama and Romney are damn near tied in the polls, but only 23% of 3geezers predict a Romney win.

[stat1K]

this country's political system is quite a joke you know?

[2oodoor]

Oh come now ^^^one liner?

Yes something that makes me think is why nobody even wants the job, or why aren't more of these "financial gurus" like the Romnimester stepping up to help the country without having political placement...

If he isn't elected where will he go, or even where will O-Bama go.. You know, he's seen the secret book now :Owned:lmao they all get free secret service escort services for life now regardless. :) will he revive the "O" network and partner with O-Prah, thats alot of OhOh. What about Romnez, his papa is strieght up Mexican, you know, like from Mexico, now how did that slip by us? Thats great, does that mean a taco bell in the white house? Hey iis the WH brewery getting a XX branding on it for the most interesting man to drink, be thirsty my friends...
Now we got jokes.
Yaw go out and vote today.

[2drSE-i]

Well looks like 50% of us were right. God help us.

[Dr_Snooz]

God help us indeed.
