Default Wouldn't This be a HOOT!
What if? What if the electors ended up being unfaithful and cast their votes for Romney when they meet in December for the Electoral College! Wouldn't that be a hoot?!!

If the stock market keeps tanking, it might be considered, huh?

Wouldn't that be a hoot and the last laugh?

Just sayin'......


Maybe the fat lady hasn't sung yet, after all.....

I would love it but it will never happen. Not that I'm hoping tough times for Americans, and I do think they are coming, but a health care disaster and a financial melt down may be the best amunition for the GOP. Sometimes it is painful to get the attention of ignorant voters, that may be what we need.

The fat lady has sung. The show is over. Time to be as gracious as Gov Romney, get over it, and move on.

It would not be a hoot, it would be a disaster. The system, once again, worked the way it was designed. I am grateful that the electors chosen would never pull such a disastrous stunt.

I am grateful that, as a US citizen, the system has worked for 225 years and will continue to work.

Think about it Lady, if this was to actually happen, what would the libs do. They would burn this @^#%$ down as their immoral ad displayed this year. Could you imagine, they said they would kill Romney if he won. Heck they probably would kill every conservative if this happened. I could see this much more a possibilty if it was the other way, if Romney had won.

It might result in a shooting revolution.
