Okay after I did more reading this morning on the electoral college I have come to understand how votes can be counted early, even though the actual voting happens a month after the popular vote. 48 of the 50 states have a winner takes all rule in place, so take for example the state I live in votes for one candidate and they take the popular vote then the electoral vote goes that way. That makes sense since I always thought it ran that was anyways, but was confused by some of the pundits and websites that claimed votes were already promised.... which living in this world today I wouldn't doubt that some are already "promised" to a party.

On that note what is wrong with Nebraska and Utah? Can you all get on the flipp'n bus already and stop doing your own thing?

The debates last night were rather dull to me, I wanted them both to come out swinging and in some cases McCain did, but being that he is somewhere around 237 years old they just sounded like an old man in dire need of his med's, a glass a prune juice, and a nap. Did anyone else think that the town hall format in this case turned out to be "let's give McCain every chance to speak and gear all of the questions towards him" format? And for the love of Pete someone get some sack and tell the candidate to shut it when they run way over, or a have a gong or something! I would love to see that, and just might write in the one who does it.
