I have a feeling that the supers are leaning towards Obama.

I've always wondered why the popular vote doesn't elect a president. I guess the concept of getting the most votes is too primative. After all, the "electoral college" must have its basis in true intellectual reasoning. What you are really voting for is some drunken "delegate" to support the actual candidate you want in office. Those political conventions must be big fun.

Now, there is a good reason why we shouldn't buy time shares at a pitch in places like Hawaii and Cancun, too.

Yep, Nixon won the most popular votes, but lost to Kennedy in 1960. Good ol' electoral college. Now there is a poll saying that Obama leads in McCain.
