US Presidential Election 2012, your prediction.

[Eddie Teach]

Half the voters are picking Kennedy over Truman? WTF guys?

[Sheilbh]

Yeah, I know Bush did it, both in 2000 and 2004.  But I don't recall Gore or Kerry or Obama 2008 doing it.

Well Kerry did it in 2004.  I don't know if Gore did in 2000, if so he did it badly.  Obama did it in 2008 against Clinton and McCain, and, hilariously, ahead of the Biden-Palin debate too.

Here's Obama's campaign in 2008 (the first debate was on foreign policy):

"John McCain has boasted throughout the campaign about his decades of Washington foreign policy experience and what an advantage that will be for him," Obama spokesman Nick Shapiro told ABCNews.com. "This debate offers him major home court advantage and anything short of a game-changing event will be a key missed opportunity for him."

Dammit, Shiv.  You're fucking up the board.

My prediction is that Obama will win with about 320.1 electoral votes.  I didn't vote in the poll yet, I'm waiting for my buddy in NSA to decrypt it.

that .10 vote is Nixon's head isn't it?

[Richard Hakluyt]

A baffling poll, have you been at the cider mongers?

I'm predicting a straightforward Obama win but not a landslide.

My elderly mother gave me the benefit of her views on the election a few days back........"that Mitt Romney seems to be a nasty piece of work", I reckon his campaign is doomed.

Did your mum like Bush?

Yes, she thought he was funny and amusing. She didn't like his wars though.

[Martinus]

I don't think mongers understands what a "margin" means.

[Martinus]

What's the fucking difference between these two choices:

303+   1948   Harry S. Truman
303+   1960   John F. Kennedy

[Ideologue]

Whether you prefer Kennedy to defeat Truman, I guess.

Prediction: Obama by, like, a lot.  NC is going blue again.  Hell, maybe this is the year SC does too.  YES WE CAN.

[Josquius]

Obama wins safely. We laugh at those states who vote Republican anyway.

[Eddie Teach]

No you can't.
