You are exactly the kind of person I hate. You're the reason democracy fails, because nobody can discuss something they disagree about without it eventually getting down to the level of personal insults.

I appreciate the commentary, I wasn't aware there was any discussion at all, but thanks for your input.

Really McCain had a shot till the economy crashed, after that there wasn't much he could do. I enjoyed his speech though.

It's almost amusing to think that most American's pin the economic crisis on McCain.

no, they pin yet another piece of disastrously bad news on the current ruling party, which mccain is a part of. their mistake is in thinking liar #2 is better than liar #1.

That's why people are in for a rude awakening. Until there is a viable 3rd option, reps and dems will fight over how they get to screw over most of America.

So what happens if Obama gets assassinated before getting sworn in? Will Biden become the next president or will McCain?

CNN didn't call it first, me and my roommate did.

McSame LOST and we were Obama delegates in a state that is Bible belt REPUBLIKRAT kountry and voted for McSame and also favored Hilly for the Democrats. We were in the tiny minority of the Obama supporters at the Democratic caucus.

Talk about being disenfranchised at the time. And a lot of my asshat Hill supporter neighbors who were looking at us at the caucus while they supported Hilly must be eating tons of crow right now, too.

Even if the dark lord declared martial law tomorrow to retaliate, we would still get Obama for president to replace him.

WOOHOO!

I wonder what would happen if something happened to him before he's actually elected on December 15th. Pretty crazy that we even have to worry about this.

Canada would have been a better choice. Ever see the movie Blue State? It's not really worth watching.

Last I checked a VP takes over, not someone who lost the election.

But he wouldn't be VP yet. No one elected Biden.

For the record I doubt there will be any assassination attempts.

It doesn't matter if he has not sworn in yet, the VP still takes over.

Here is the info I found out about the death of the president elect deal:

Amendment 20 section 3 of the Constitution

If, at the time fixed for the beginning of the term of the President, the President elect shall have died, the Vice President elect shall become President. If a President shall not have been chosen before the time fixed for the beginning of his term, or if the President elect shall have failed to qualify, then the Vice President elect shall act as President until a President shall have qualified; and the Congress may by law provide for the case wherein neither a President elect nor a Vice President elect shall have qualified, declaring who shall then act as President, or the manner in which one who is to act shall be selected, and such person shall act accordingly until a President or Vice President shall have qualified.

Thanks for clearing that up.

If I see this on another Myspace page tonight, I'm going to delete my account. lol.

I stayed an extra hour at work tonight because my boss ordered pizza when he found out Obama was winning and likely going to win.

Today a new generation of Americans has spoken. A generation that can look beyond the color of a person's skin. A generation that will not submit to the hatred, bigotry, and spitefulness of their parents and their parent's parents. Today is a new day in America. It is a day in which we can all look open with hope for the future. It is a day that will go down in history and be seen for the greatness it exudes. Today is the beginning of a new era. We should all be proud.
