No doubt, I agree... Things start getting really suspect as well, between ballots that aren't counted, ballots that are missing, etc,etc.. it just turns into one big CLUSTER!

Yea, they gave him South Carolina.... but they're small electoral vote states.. gotta wait for the big dogs to get rolling. PA, FL, CA (even though CA is pretty much determined Dem and has 55 electoral votes) OH, VA, those are the states it's going to come down to... and right now down here (FL), Obama is leading but it's early, polls closed at 7pm.

37 seats for the senate so far for the Republicans. This race is almost just as big as who becomes president.

3 votes lost. My parents just came back from the polling stations and said the exact same thing happen to them. Who do we complain to to rectify this f*** cause I can guarantee you we're not the only ones this has happened to.

No matter who wins the Presidency, I always like to see the opposing party win the senate so if the President is the same party affiliation as the Senate he can just push through whatever B.S he wants... as corrupt as it is, it's the closest "real" thing to bipartisan..

If Obama holds his lead down here in FL (50% Obama to 48% Romney) at the moment. I'm willing to call it a win for Obama..

Completely see where you're coming from. Our system of Government is built "supposedly" to check each other. Hence "checks and balances"
However if the senate is the same as the president, who's checking who?

I agree in theory but then we will just see the same gridlock

From a completely unbiased point of view, it's very Hard to see Obama not winning this

Yep, when you stop and think, it really is the closest thing we have to a "check and balances" system... even though it's still corrupt by lobbyist and the like.. but hey, nothing is perfect so gotta take it for what it's worth..

But the judicial branch can also check the other branches, making sure they don't gain too much power.

One of the main reason I want to see the Democrats win is because I want the Republican party to fold and build itself up again. The Republican party needs reform.
I'm an fiscal conservative but I'm tired of seeing these Social Conservatives, Tea Party enthusiasts, and religious freaks bring the Republican party down. It's such a disappointment. Makes centrists not want to vote republican because of the Republican social affiliation. These old social conservative hags need to die off already.
If the Republicans lose this election, that means they would lose the popular vote 5 out of the past 6 elections. They need to realize the party needs reform. I hope.

Yeah, another reason I want Obama to win. Hopefully in the next 4 years Obama get to appoint a couple more justices. I want Scalia out so f-ing bad
