It'll be fun watching the country and how it deals with a ~$20 trillion debt and higher interest rates.

It's too bad because electing Mitt would've solved the problem immediately.

No. Right now Romney won the popular vote but as more votes come in it could change. Literally it could be only a couple hundred votes difference.


Obama definitely got the popular vote. Check CNN

Again too early to call. Many other sites disagree.

I'm seeing Obama with a slight lead according to CNN and RealClearPolitics, but, yes, it could change, although I think Obama will end up with the lead.

Was very close, I thought Romney would win like 6 months ago but recently I remembered that most electoral college vote in 2nd term for most presidents. Like Bush, won electoral but lost popular, and now same with Obama for the most part.

I thought that's why people elected Obama 4 years ago.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

Bush lost the popular vote in his first election, not the second.
