Anything is possible today.

Very True. Sad part is I don't know anyone who will admit to voting for Bush the second time.

I did, and I would do it again if Gore was running against him.

Bush was ahead in the polls going into election day both times.

For all the Bush-bashing the past 8 years, there's no arguing that Gore and Kerry really sucked.

But you're right, nothing is ever certain and this ain't over 'til the fat lady sings.

I was referring to the second time which was Kerry.

If McCain wins you will have riots in the streets.

No matter who wins, there will likely be an abundance of unruly behavior in downtown Chicago tonight.

The voter fraud has been obama's kind
I hope McCain will win but don't think that he will
I think obama is not a secret socialist,there is nothing secret about it

Give one example of Obama voter fraud. You can't, because it doesn't exist. What does is Republicans' dirty tricks like calling people telling them Dems vote on Wednesday, that you can go to jail if anything on your registration doesn't match, etc.

Acorn

Nonsense. ACORN has been accused by the right wing of registration fraud, which has nothing to do with voter fraud (actually voting when when you're not legally qualified, or voting more than once).

I guess you mean that even though they are registered they wont vote?

You understand that the registration fraud was reported by ACORN themselves, right? All voter registrations, suspect or not, have to be submitted. That does not mean they get accepted and become eligible to vote.

McCain has to overcome the current administration, the republican party being fractured and the media. For quite some time he also barely even ran a campaign. Sarah Palin is an easy punching bag as well, even if she is (not saying she is) a genius, the way she sounds makes it easy to pass judgment on her.

Obama... in any other presidential race ever... would be a completely unelectable candidate.

This is a sad race regardless of the outcome.
