You beat me to it.

Obama will pile up huge margins in CA and NY and several other solid blue states. If Obama loses the popular vote, Romney will be the next President.

Yeah, and I could be a woman if God had designed my plumbing a little differently.

For the umpteenth time, our founding fathers had the vision to design a system where a president needed both deep support (popular votes) and wide support (electoral votes) to win the office.

In the event of a split decision, the wide support took precedent, as has only happened three times in 56 presidential elections.

In the event of an inconclusive decision in either support test, then the House of Representatives decides. That has happened exactly once.

And, by the way, the only one of these four anomaly elections which even came close to precipitating a crisis was in 2000 and then only because the loser refused to play by the rules and accept the outcome.
