Don't be so sure. They will get the 12% black vote, the 4% queer vote, the 15% queer supporter vote, the 20% liberal vote, the 8% admitted communist vote, the 22% white guilt vote, the 14% DUmmie vote, the 38% entitlement vote, the 48% non taxpaying vote and 100% of the dead vote.....now adding that up in my head, it comes to 281% of the votes.....minus a few hanging chads here and there.
