Still at;
315 Obama
255 Romney

I made guesses....two of them!  And I was serious about them.  (OMG!!...do you realize just how hard it is not to commentary?)



You do realize there are NOT 570 electoral votes in play, right?

Not for conservatives, no.  We had a meeting.

Yeah...538.  I even used the calculator, then typed it out wrong.  Several times.  Not sure where that came from?  Doesn't even go with mild dyslexia...
One of those inexplicable artifacts of getting old.

I'll guess Mitt gets the rest after 315.  That should make it better - or 223, whichever comes first....

Can we have a thread that is only guesses about the results and absent of commentary? I doubt it.

I want to have each of us make a guess of the final outcome of the Electoral College for the 2012 presidential election. Guesses must be in before midnight on Monday November 5th. Winner gets choice of a six pack of Marshall's beer or a free lunch at choice of downtown restaurant.

My guess:
Obama 294
Romney 244


Enter your guess by midnight tonight and win valuable prizes and the admiration of all the rest of us.

The numbers are the same, just for different candidates.

Kinda found it funny about how in 2010 the RWers thought Nate was pretty accurate...given that he was.  When it doesn't look like it's going their way, they jump all over him.

Not surprising however.

I suspect it has something to do with the persecution complex that runs rampant among certain, largely overlapping, groups in this country. The aftermath of this election will be interesting if Obama wins if those crosstabs hold up and it turns out that women and minorities reelect the President despite a supermajority of white male opposition.
