THere is such a rush, a veritable tsunami of ushering Obama prematurely into the mantle of power, down to calling him the "President-elect" when he is, in fact, not (and will not be until the Electoral College casts their ballots for him), that I am given to question it.

In view of the growing controversy in regards to his Constitutional Qualifications for POTUS, I think the haste, unseemly at best, is indicative of a deeper problem, one which will be further complicated by the premature annointing of Obama by the media.

I've been thinking the same
This haste to make Obama look like the President already is a counter strike against the various court efforts bubbling up that question Hussein's eligibility

But it's also just a naked power grab
Liberals have no life except to govern
To grab power via government
Republicans seek power and success economically in the free market

I’m kind of uninformed about the whole elctoral thing but who else would the electoral college elect other than Obama?

can they really elect someone else at this point?

also, what if Obama becomes legitimately disqualified before 1/20? who becomes president?
