Do you think we'll know who won on 11/5?
I'm curious if you think we'll know or do you think it will take forever to get through all the red tape like in 2000?


I know I'll be taking sleeping pills on Tuesday night to get to sleep, or I'll be watching results all night...

1. Yes, I have come to believe that Obama will be elected easily.

2. I think we'll know Obama wins early in the evening.
And we'll have plenty of time to drink Champagne! Stock up.

When Obama takes FL it'll be all over but the crying.

10. Or Ohio or Virginia.
Any of those is an automatic win. McCain gets all 3 of them, then we have to wait and see what happens in Colorado.

18. Lol - you might be right...

A couple of weeks ago, my wife and I had thought that McCain simply throwing in the towel was a realistic possibility.

The only thing McCain knows how to do, and the only thing he's ever done in his life is to surrender.

It looks like he's done it again.

22. If Ohio, Virginia, or Florida look like they're Obama's -- we know
Otherwise, we'll have to wait for the NM and CO recounts.

23. It won't end until Nov. 5, that's for sure--unless McCain implodes.
And no, this current behavior doesn't count unless he starts tanking in the polls.
