West Vriginia called for Romney

Coal country, hopefully PA will follow suit.

FL is going to be a nail biter.

My sentiments exactly, from freerepublic:

Quote
It always bugs me that a precinct right in the middle of a major urban center takes forever and a day to get their returns in, but a precinct in a double-wide trailer out in West Backass Holler gets their votes in 10 minutes after the polls close. Looks fishy, because those late precincts are almost ALWAYS heavily Democratic.

According to freerepublic, Cleveland Democrats are desperate, sending out twits urging people to vote, because they're like 20% below the last election.

I don't doubt it. BTW, so you all know, they keep saying people here will vote for the O because of the auto bailout. Well I know someone personally who worked for GM. They closed many plants here for the 1 or 2 left open. His pay dropped by half. More lost jobs then kept them so how they think that matters just shows me how out of touch they are with how that really went down.
