I am going to say I am NOT a Romney supporter. Not one bit. I am, however, completely opposed to Obama. I don't say anything because so many people are liberal on GAF it's just a massive dogpile and it's just not fun for me at all. It's like asking to get screamed at. I think most of the conservatives on GAF just avoid it.

I actually don't support obama either,I however did vote for him first election in a heart beat. there's plenty of people who will post about not supporting obama. Its just barely any that will post that they support Romney,its not even so much about being republican or conservative so much as that its just Romney.
 
They have Romney up in NJ with 1%.

Stop saying "white knuckle!"

As a Canadian who isn't super familiar with the US political system, I have a question:

I am looking at Huffington Post's live election results, and they are reporting wins for Romney and Obama in certain states. When I look down the included results chart at these states, they often say that less than 10% of the ridings have reported in. How can they call a win if so many ridings have yet to report? When it says that 10% of ridings have reported, does it really mean that 10% of ridings have reported 100% of their votes, but the majority of votes have been counted in the outstanding 90% of ridings?

"Wow Linda showed what at true professional she is. That gut check was needed. Now go back to the drawing board and come back with 4 widgets that will knock the socks off for the next election. I'm telling you don't sleep on Linda, her testicular fortitude with her husband's backing can lead her to the promise land..."

"Pssst... John, Linda's husband is Vince McMahon, Monday Night Raw, your competitor"

They're able to make certain calls because particular states are traditionally solid red or solid blue. Something like Vermont will never go Republican unless the entire country is going Republican, and something like South Carolina will never go Democratic...period.
