As the option is a dying man with an insane woman as a stand in then I think you've made the right choice

The choice of a fighter in Mortal Kombat who has massive teeth and swords in his arms...?



I'd not argue

Jealous? Of what?!?!?!

I am sick to sodding death hearing about your election! I had to listen to Sarah fricking Palin over my Sunday dinner, if we weren't sat in a pub, I would have turned it off, her shrill voice was doing my head in.

So no. But thanks

I've been enjoying reading up on the build up over the past year so I'll probably be watching the coverage overnight on Election Night
Just hope the nutter with the female nutter doesn't win

Bugger, didnt think of that

Give us a General Election anyday. None of this campaigning crap, polls open day 1, close end of day 1, results in the early hours of day 2. Done and dusted thank you very much.

yeah haha. Florida usually tends to find a way to **** it up. they are America's wang after all. And by jealous I meant, that after all this buildup for the last year and a half or however long it's been, I actually get to vote and all you can do is sit and watch!

Fortunately it doesn't sound like the election is going to be close enough where it will come down to just one state's electoral count. Obama seems to have the favor in several of the swing states. I seriously can't wait for this to be over with.

Palin can kiss my ass... the idea that there's even a chance she may be president scares the crap out of me. What they've been saying is it sounds like a bad disney movie come to life. Hockey mom from Alaska becomes president, just imagine how she would deal with world powers!!! *CRINGE*

Never mind president. The idea that she'll get one second more airtime over here scares the crap out of me. Alaska is welcome to keep her, but may she never utter a word on my TV set ever again. I think my brain might explode.

It's been interesting to read the American view of our coverage. Plenty of accusations of Barack-bias directed at the BBC. Pot, kettle, and black come to mind there. Fox News, anyone?

Anyway, latest poll numbers suggest the gap has closed a little. Will we be in for a surprise come polling day? I hope not.

As for Florida, do they still have pregnant chads there?

Bah, you'd beOKit would be the rest of the world quaking in fear of who the gun toting homicidal, xenophobic, homophobic, polar bear hating tart would bomb first! If she was in I'd rather be in the US than outside it as god knows where she'd point the first missile!
