I think obama will win,because of the popular vote and national polls and the state of craziness the current gov has left us in,

I don't want obama to win,I actually don't want either him or mccain to win

I want joe walsh to be president

Can we discard and redraw choices? This election sucks.

Right on!

Obama
and an emphasized "Neither"

Here come the "rub it in" threads by the dominating Dems! :P

I think Obama will win but I want McCain. So next year this time I don't want to hear the whining about how bad Obama and his policies really are.

You know the last presidential election was like that with Ghost, Prey and of course Ghosthunter.


Nothing wrong with a bit of celebration but but the "rub it in" posts are a bit silly.

I do hope that the Obama supporters are a bit more mature than that.

Why not? If he blows of his platform, spends the first nine months putting together a bannana republic while ignoring things like his head of terrorism trying desperately to get a meeting, and of course blowing off any good will the rest of the world have for us, then you bet I'll complain.

I don't like either candidate and I refuse to vote as a result. I am not going to vote for anybody for the sake of voting.

Most states have all kinds of propositions, judges, and state positions that need to be decided.


Your local politics will probably affect you more than the Presidential election will, so you should really consider voting even if you don't vote for a President.

Guess it depends on what people construe as rubbing it in. If Obama wins I will undoubtedly be happy, but I won't create some thread and specifically direct it to those who voted for McCain for the sole purpose of rubbing it in. That said I will definitely be happy about an Obama win and will say as much.

Obama, Obama.

1. Who do you think will win the Presidency?
Obama
2. Who do you want to win the Presidency?
Undecided but leaning Democrat for the presidency and Republican for the senate. I don't particularly think either candidate is amazing. I'm actually pretty disappointed in the federal govt. right now (most people probably are..).

McCain does a 1984 Doug Fleutie hail mary!

I think it's far, far more likely that Obama would lose the presidency then the chances that Republicans would have the majority in either branch of Congress.

In truth Dems will likely control all 3 branches.

Its a tough call but I'm leaning towards thinking Obama will win.

If McCain were a democrat, I'd vote for him. If Obama were a Republican, I'd vote for him.

I think they represent what each opposing party needs.

Dems are too soft and the GOP has grown to be too radical with it's fundamentalism.

If the McCain of 2000 was a part of this election process he would have made the decision on who would be the better President harder on moderates. Unfortunately the 2008 version is far more right wing.

Unfortunately, I think that Obama will win. I don't see how he could lose.

The Bradley effect is the only thing I can think of. Not sure how it could be explained any other way.

That could be the only explanation I think. I don't believe however that it will be a landslide victory like I've heard some people say.

Neither, since Oklahoma doesn't allow write-in candidates for president.

I am giving up predicting. I certainly don't think it will be anything like 1984, but I do think Obama will win and we will know that on Tuesday night.

Bob Barr could not make it on the OK ballot?

Obama will probably win.

I truthfully cannot decide.

David wrote:Bob Barr could not make it on the OK ballot?

Not as yet. The party has been in court over it, and is showing as "pending" on lp.org, but two days out, it ain't happening. Wasn't voting for Barr anyway, but Oklahoma is a two-party myopia.

Understood, and a fairly common affliction in these United States.

Barack will win but I'd rather have McCain. At least I know the devil that I'm dealing with.

You pretty much did already.. thats what this thread is and nothing less. If the polls are correct and he wins thats exactly what this thread is. If not then it was mearly "Thats my choice and what I want" thread.. I mean come on LOL

That's just silly Sava to suggest this thread serves as a thread to rub something in that hasn't even happened yet.

Might want to re-evaulate your use of "too." It changes the entire meaning of your sentence.

Burke wrote:Might want to re-evaulate your use of "too." It changes the entire meaning of your sentence.

I think he will win the Presidency and I want him to be the President.

If he were trying to rub it in wouldnt he post the poll with Obama as both choices?

I think Obama wins and I agree with UOD. Both parties need move a little more to the center.

I'm not rubbing anything in. It's a flawed argument Sava is making. I think he knows better then that. There is a clear difference between what I am doing here and taunting someone. Right now we don't know who will win and even when we do and something is said about it doesn't mean we are rubbing it in. Two examples of such a scenario.

1. Obama won the Presidency by beating John McCain
2. Obama won the Presidency and beat John McCain (hahaha McCain supporters)

The first is a statement of fact. The second is taunting due to the last part of the sentence. This is really common sense 101 stuff. Now because I can see someone making the accusation example 2 was just that. An example.

I don't see how this thread could be mistaken as rubbing it in if Obama wins.

naw not silly...I mean you came out and said who you were voting for and who you hoped would win.

Roody wrote:I think Obama will win the Presidency and I want him too.

I mean its pretty clear to me thats all you did was start a rubbing it in thread. Had you just made a poll and the first post then I'd say it was a evenly made thread.
If you say it isn't then ok

I think Obama will win and he has my vote as well.

Sava700 wrote:naw not silly...I mean you came out and said who you were voting for and who you hoped would win.

How is that rubbing it in?

Saying that he's happy if the person that he voted for equates to rubbing it in?
