Polls
I'm not very political, I didn't even vote. I don't care who wins or loses because I don't really believe it will make a difference in how our country is ran. Not to get too far into a rant but I figured I would post up some interesting stats so far from the news:
National results for votes so far:
Mitt Romney has 2,106,744 votes......... 51%
Barrack Obama has 1.985,971 votes..... 49%
Electoral Votes:
Mitt Romney: 33...... 92%
Barrack Obama: 3..... 8%

Yeah, we won't know anything definite until very late tonight or early tomorrow, but I could sure live with a final result like those early returns--92% Romney is just fine with me! And there is NO DOUBT that whoever wins will have a HUGE impact on the direction of this country--we've already seen some terrible directional shifts under Obama, and I don't want to see where four more years of his ideas will land us. And no, I'm not getting into any debates or arguments about it here--politics and religion usually just turn ugly in anonymous formats like this.

@SV_DUde, like I've been saying all day...
I like poles, in fact, I love them. I watch them as much as possible.
Back to our normally scheduled banter then?

Glad to see Obama pulled it out. I wanted to vote for whomever brings back a Runner with a V8 option though.

Appears the overwhelming Countries opinion is different than yours. If the other would have won, we would have to stock up on a lot more than ammo.

SV was just telling me last night how much he loves a good poll.

A sad day for our country in my opinion.
I will give Obama credit for one thing....He said we would see change and we did. Highest unemployment rates for one term and instead of 3 trillion its like 17 trilllion now. It is change!

We finally agree, "No voting is a no-no." You are so correct! While, I am thrilled President Obama won, I hope both sides can find common ground! Furthermore, I hope the extremes on both sides quietly slip away....No one is coming after anyone's guns, and the government needs to not just give everything away...

What can I say....the people have spoken, and times are changing. Like it or not, we are well on our way to european-style socialism. The fact is, these social programs cost money; much more money than the one-percenters alone can provide. The real losers here are our children and grandchildren who will be strapped with crushing debt and stifling taxes.
