And I do reserve the right to complain when either one of these men become president.

Well enough. I just think it's sad that in a Country that has a couple hundred million people, we have to choose between a douche bag, and a turd sandwich.

I honestly don't know. Really haven't the faintest. I think it could go either way. Most of the people I know through the internet have a preference for Romney and most I know in real life have a preference for Obama....but they can't vote since they're not americans.

It's the fault of the 2 party system and the way the primaries are ran.
Only republicans vote in the republican primaries, and democrats in the democrat primaries.
Each group chooses (due to human nature) a candidate which represents their core ideals to the biggest extent. Working with other parties and compromise is seen as weak, and you get left with hard liners on each side. Then both of them get thrown to the general population.

the majority of Republicans will always vote for the republican, even if it would be a donkey.
the majority of Democrats will always vote for the democrat, even if it would be a donkey.

The moderates are left, trying to decide whom they dislike the least, or whom they think will do the least damage in the next 4 years.

If the "Redskins Rule" is indeed in effect, Romney would win.

Didn't Bush '43', break that trend? It's too bad that octopus that picked the football games died, then we could know for sure!

Obama wins Ohio, not close. Romney wins Ohio, it may get gore/bush ugly.

I wish people cared as much about who gets voted into their local goverment and the house/senate.

Those are they guys that have a real impact on you.

For some reason, I have a feeling it's gonna be ugly even if it's not nail biting close. There's just so much money involved, the sharks/lawyers are already circling the pool, they smell blood.

I fear it's going to be ugly regardless who wins. The next few years are going to prove interesting no matter what...

My mark went to Romney on early voting thursday. I do not feel that Obama did anything positive for country to date...& I am being nice. I am pro America and pro gun, enough said.

I think Obama will win. You can't fix 16 years of Bush in one term...takes a bit longer.

Not too mention, Romney's statement of Sandy, "people should stay in their other homes while things are being cleaned up at the shore". Unfortunately my second and third home's are being remodeled at the moment so that won't work. I mean how far out of touch can one individual be! I'm in the upper middle class and I can't even begin to relate to this guy, perhaps the top 10% can.
