Well, I guess we are .... umhp ... back, now? [8D]
We are still in the Prediction phase, although a little discussion about the "why" of a prediction is certainly on-topic.
Any lurker out there wish to commit to anything?
With deep regret for America and the world, I'd call it for Mittens. Obama would need a lead of 10% at least to offset the effects of the various vote-rigging scams, and if he only scrapes in with a majority based on recounts, we know how that ends.
More specifically, the script being written by the people in charge calls for it. The plan four years back was, after Bush's friends had looted the economy to the point of collapse, to let in a Dem to take the blame for the crash. As it turned out, the crash happened a few months ahead of the plan, but it didn't matter: the faithful still believe it happened on Obama's watch. Now that the recovery has started, the script obviously calls for a Republican administration to come in and take the credit; and what the bosses want, they generally get.
I'd like to be wrong.
You mean that them dirty reputhugians are going to manage this election through voter fraud?
Bastards!
Feds to probe possible voter fraud in Florida
Residents receiving false letters questioning citizenship, officials say
quote:
ORLANDO, Fla.
Officials in Florida have issued a statewide warning about a new trick trying to prevent voters from going to the polls.
Voters are getting letters that look like they are from local elections offices, questioning their citizenship. But Local 6 has learned the letters are fake, and they are going out across Central Florida and many other parts of the state.
"This is a major concern," said Seminole County Supervisor of Elections Mike Ertel, who received a letter from a voter mailed from Seattle with no return address. "You should not expect a letter from your elections office saying, 'You're not registered to vote, please don't go to the polls.' That's ridiculous."
On Tuesday, the state of Florida said there have been reports from more than 20 counties where voters have received fraudulent letters impersonating supervisors of elections.
"We are working with the state’s supervisors of elections as well as law enforcement to find the source of these letters and put a stop to them. We have provided all of the information we have received to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement," said Chris Cate, communications director for the Florida Department of State. "We have no tolerance for voter fraud or intimidation, and any attempts at fraud or intimidation will be investigated and prosecuted to the fullest extent possible."
Inside the letter is the resident's supervisor of election's name, the resident's name and address, and a warning that doubts the voter's citizenship, saying the resident is not eligible to vote unless a letter is returned in an enclosed form within 15 days.
"It creates confusion, it's just a big distraction," said Linda Tanko of the Orange County Supervisor of Elections Office, which has received multiple letters.
Some voters said it's easy to be fooled.
"It looks official," a Central Florida resident said.
