:(

On the other hand, if McCain had only won North Carolina, Indiana, Florida, Ohio, Virginia, Colorado, and the Omaha district of Nebraska...

Why, he coulda won the whole damn election!

;)

That's what I love about this election--Republicans have no Florida 2000 or Ohio 2004 to cling to. They could have pulled off a HUGE upset in four or five swing states--and they still would have lost!

10. I didn't forget them--if Obama had only won the red states of IA, NM, and NV...
...he would have tied McCain at 269 apiece.

7. That would be 2,000 more votes
Actually, we need 2,000 McCain voters to Vote Democrat, or an additional 4,001 Democrats to vote, in order to swing this our way.

11. Talk about close!
We lost by a hair, but the blue trend will continue and Missouri and even Arizona will turn blue in '12.

12. Think how hard they worked to keep "those ones" from voting
in MO and elsewhere. :grr:

And that's all they have to show for it. A grand total of 173 EVs. :rofl: :nopity:
