WASHINGTON — It's a nightmare scenario for Democrats — their nominee Barack Obama winning the popular vote while Republican John McCain ekes out an Electoral College victory. Sure, McCain trails in every recent national poll. Sure, surveys show that Obama leads in the race to reach the requisite 270 electoral votes to win the presidency.

Sure, chances of Republicans retaining the White House are remote.

But some last-minute state polls show the GOP nominee closing the gap in key states — Republican turf of Virginia, Florida and Ohio among them, and Democratic-leaning Pennsylvania, too.

Over the past week this has become my dream outcome for the election.

Basically for the purpose of extra over the top uncontrolable moonbat rage.

And, thanks to public education teaching kids why Billy has two moms, this generation has no idea how the electoral college works and why it was establised by our founding fathers. Hell, they don’t even know what “founding fathers” is about. I doubt if they could spell “founding”.

I’ve been calling New Hampshire voters all day and only had two that were hostile to the call or voiced support for Obama.

Overwhelmingly they were for McCain.

Obama only visited jacksonvill NOT the center of fL but the far NE tip.

that tells me he was in fl just to be in FL.

It was symbolism not substance.

If he thought FL was still in need of an obama push he would have gone more central.

A wet dream.

Obama idiots are going to steal this election no matter what (and yes - I have already voted and I voted for McCain/Palin - it won't matter).

The popular vote “lead” would be based on nothing but fraud so I could live with the so-called “injustice.”

When you are off record covering all angles, you need only recall the one that was right.
