    McCain will win easily, unless there really is a big swing.
    do you have a source or a recent poll that says McCain is currently in the lead?

      A week of 'recounts' then McCain get's in by a nose.

      You read it here first.

      You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.

          ...because the republicans are experts and well practiced at vote rigging?
          Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? - Epicurus

            Would anyone on here vote for McCain (apart from Bagpuss of course)?

            Whenever I've seen an American citizen asked why they're voting for McCain the only reason they can come up with is "Obama is a terrorist" or ''Obama is a Muslim".
            Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

              Saw on TV last night, "We don't vote for baby-killers in our family".

                Apparently that's a good enough reason for many. However, perhaps people just think it's more acceptable to say 'Muslim' than 'Coon'. I think perhaps we should export some of our overly-PC-ness to the USA, who could maybe do with a bit more of it (and we would be well off with a bit less).

                    Same here really, maybe even worse - the "ruling party" that forms Govt does not need to get 50% of the vote.
