Hey guys! We'll be closing this thread shortly, but we will make an American politics megathread where we can continue the discussions in here.

The new thread can be found here: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=383301

I have to repost this, as it was my favorite prediction given all thread!

On October 21 2012 06:54 DeepElemBlues wrote:
Romney's gonna win 40 states, it's gonna be the most hilarious night of my life.

Florida is gone.

The rest of the south is gone. Obama is going to lose North Carolina and Virginia both.

Romney's erased an 11-point deficit in Wisconsin in ~2 weeks, he's down by 1 there now. A 7-8 point deficit in Ohio is now a tie. He's leading in Pennsylvania. He's only a few points behind in Michigan. Iowa and Nevada are a tie. All of these states had Obama in the lead by 4-10 points less than a month ago.

Obama's last chance is the final debate and we saw last week that he isn't going to land a knockout punch on Romney in a debate.

The Obama campaign took out a $15 million loan from Bank of America this week, because they desperately need money to buy advertising in states they thought were safe, like Wisconsin and Michigan. Their fundraising can't keep up with their expenses (wow, what a shocker there).

The preference cascade started after the first debate and hasn't stopped, though it has slowed a little. Romney will win nationally by a margin similar to 2008 (6-7 points) and will have a lopsided electoral vote victory. There just isn't anything Obama can do, he's been trying like a desperate man to stop the shift to Romney for two weeks and it hasn't worked.

Unless Obama has pictures of Romney uppercutting a 10 year old or something, this election cake is baked. Romney is going to be the next president.

Even though we mentioned it a few times a dozen pages ago, I admit I am quite excited over this whole statehood for Puerto Rico possibility.

Having never seen a state added to our nation, the concept is so exciting to me, even though I am not quite sure why.

The only problem with that would be they couldn't have any senate or house or presidential voting ability until the 2020 census.

Alan West has lost his re-election bid as well during this speech by the way.

They'll blame Sandy.

They ran an out of touch candidate with an out of touch platform against a weak incumbent and will look for excuses outside their own party.

Disasters are signs from God, I hear from Republicans.

Aren't they then saying that God wants Obama to win?

Hahhaha, I did that last elections to republicans i know. it's a great troll to do for tomorrow too!

I am glad that common sense and dignity have won this election instead of mister Magic Pants who would also have been a foreign affairs catastrophe like Bush.

In addition I am glad that colored people and others got the right to vote because otherwise we could say hello to Mr. Magicpants, I just dont get it how this guy is votable. From a european perspective you must really be an idiot to have voted for Mitt, no insult intended, but thats the truth.
As a european I express my warmest thank you to the outcome of this vote.

Making fun of a religion, calling half the country idiots, and throwing in a bit of race baiting to top it off. But he said no insult intended so... Great posting.

It would be consistent with how his incarnate is a long-haired hippy who helped the poor.

I think your thanks would be warmer if you were from Russia, our enemy number 1 according to Romney. That statement still shocks me.

Pretty sick speech, gj America
The first link of chain forged, the first speech censured, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied, chains us all irrevocably.

Overall, I like this speech. His 2008 speech was somewhat better, but both were good in their own way.
