Well, you could blame the GOP for being too slow to count votes, but with Floriduh's hanging chads still leaving a bad taste in our mouths, I'd much rather them be methodical about getting the tally right.
But, yeah, it's the MSM's fault. They selected Romney and, by God, that's who we're gonna have. :whatever:
