American voting performs at a premium on the suspense factor and **** on actual representation. Welcome to the wild world of winner-take-all.

The only real hope I have is that Romney will win the popular vote and then maybe we can actually have the conversation we should have had in 2000 after Al Gore lost.

I wonder what the world would have looked today if Al Gore had won that election. I was five years old that year.=P

Blame the past administration for the state of things.  Oh wait... he won't be able to do that.

He'll just keep doing what he's been doing these last four years.  By reelecting him, Americans are effectively tell him to keep the course.

If Romney snags the popular vote the first thing on the agenda will be to call the GOP hypocrites for complaining about it, due to what happened with Al Gore in 2000 (because two wrongs make a right). Then there might be enough discussion about it to force the issue.

Well, that was fun. CNN beats the boring Swedish media a gazillion times. Great election night reporting, CNN! We swedish politicans have a lot to learn from the lively, american campaigns (except for the mud throwing, insane amounts of money and lies).

I think it´s pretty boring that you´re going to have the same president for four more years (but then in Sweden, we might have the same government for 12 consecutive years if we win the next election). Republicans are usually more fun people too, but that´s mostly because of the more extreme republicans crazy opinions that seem to come straight out of the dark ages. The backwardness and obession with morals is both scary and hilarious.

I´m not as worried about your foreign policies now.
Doesn´t seem like Gary is getting close to those 5% though. =(

It's not official, but yes it looks like America will be poorly managed for another four years.

Agree with this, by the way.  GoP needs to be smarter about who they nominate for congressional races.  They threw away a chance at a senate majority because of white males with strange notions about rape.

Just got home, after staying up all night to watch the election. It was close at first, but then went utterly downhill at around 3am, not sure wtf was up with Florida, not that it would of mattered, but still. In the end though it was close, but the American voting system is abysmal, also I love the fact that Electors have no direct obligation to follow the overall vote of the people, which is undemocratic as hell, (though some states obviously prohibit this, and it is very uncommon, BUT still)

I went to bed at 5am when Obama crossed the post at 275 electors, but he ain't president just yet, likely that Romney will call for a recount.

Poorly managed indeed.  Of course I think the house needs to be fired and filibuster rules need to be reformed to prevent this tyranny of the minority in the senate we've had.

Congratulations president Obama.

Heh, as predicted. Another 4 years of terrible foreign policy.

Pesky liberal Illuminatis have rigged the votes...
