McCain is getting killed even in the US. Highly suspect.

stopped reading it some time ago.
It has just become another mouth piece of the left.

As for the votes abroad, what a stupid article. It’s like getting big crowds in Germany for obama when they had a concert as well.

I’m from England and the people I know in England want McCain, the trouble is that the left loons have a big voice and control the media so the average persons view is never heard though the media

If the whole world could vote, we’d probably have a Latverian dictator running the show.

Global electoral college? "What if the whole world could vote?"

I guess we'd have to issue another Declaration of Independence and take up arms to fight another Revolutionary War to regain our sovereignty.

Or maybe we can avoid all that fuss by preemptively deporting the surrender-monkies and traitors now. Wouldn't that be nice.

Can we vote in their elections? If the answer is no, who gives a rats rear end.

If I were every undecided as to how to vote in a presidential election, I would ask myself "Who do the Europeans support? Who do our enemies wish to see elected?"
Then, I would vote for that candidate's opponent. Looking back, it would appear to be a fool-proof method.
