US Election

These days I'm lucky if I get to skim LJ, and so may have missed other people who have the same concern I do. I think many of my friends want Obama to win, for all sorts of good reasons. Things are looking good, with many big Republicans even publically supporting him.

But while everyone seems to be hoping for an Obama victory, I have yet to hear anyone express the niggling fear I've had since day one - the bastards stole one election and got clean away with it, who is to say they won't do it again?

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/us_elections_2008/7697829.stm makes the theft look considerably less likely. I'm enjoying Obama's numbers jumping up while McCain's creep slowly. I'm glad for the Electoral College votes this year though - it'd be a much closer race if it was bases soley on people votes as Obama's only a couple of hundred thousand ahead.

Except for that painful jump just then when McCain go Texas.

Well, that was expected, however Texas was a much closer race than anyone anticipated.
