1) GOP would silently acquiesce and Obama gets his second 4 years.
2) There is a hot civil war and citizens rise up to fight the coup.
I believe Obama would be quite pleased with either situation, and I do not think there is a third option that woudl result from Obama blatantly stealing the election. You see, he doesn't really need 4 more years to destroy us -- a bloody civil war would do the job real quick.
You are simply a defeatist loser that is always cowering like some little girl that a big scary monster went “boo” to.
“They are going do this and they are going to do that and we’re all going to die...”. How utterly pathetic.
WE ARE GOING TO “DO” TO THEM THIS ELECTION. THEY HAD BETTER BE VERY AFRAID OF WHAT WE, THE VERY PISSED, VERY ANGRY, VERY DETERMINED, QUIET MAJORITY IS GOING TO DO TO THEM.
Your hypotheticals are not mutually exclusive.
I suppose we could also end up in a Bush/Gore type situation, it seems there are ways to get to a tie in the electoral college.
I think if Romney can just maintain the edge he gained in the debate he’ll prevail by a convincing enough margin. Oh yeah, and all his lukewarm supporters on the right, who already know/knew all about him, have to turn out.
Even setting aside all the good, extreme right arguments about Obama (that he’s a commie/closet commie; that he’s a secret muslim/muslim sypathizer; that he hates/want to take down several notches America and white people) ALL of which I believe (in one variant or another of those I posted) - he’s been a very poor president.
He hasn’t helped the economy enough, his foreign policy has lost Egypt and led to the murder of our Ambassador to Libya and several others, no one can really doubt that Al Queda, et al are emboldened by him.
And further, he’s out of ideas. He’s got 3 ideas left: raise taxes on “the rich”, invest in “green energy”, hire more teachers/cops/firemen.
Mitt Romney DESERVES to win this election. He MIGHT be awful too (although I can’t believe he’d be worse than Obama Part Deux); but if he is he’ll get the gate in 4 years.
I think his showing at the debate is sufficient for the swinging middle to give him a shot. If we “partisans” show up too I think he makes it across the finish line.
And then, come what may, at least we’ll be rid of Barry and Michelle. And Valerie. And Eric.
