He defeated McCain by a razor-thin 51-49% in this poll four years ago.

Nickelodeon’s Linda Ellerbee said Monday that the president captured 65 percent of the vote to beat Republican Mitt Romney in the network’s “Kids Pick the President” vote. More than 520,000 people cast online ballots through the children’s network’s website over one week earlier this month.

I suppose children know just how cloudy a Romney win would make their future! They also selected John Kerry 57-43 over President Bush, though slipped up in 2000, handing Bush a 55-45% win.

3. Are you sure they aren't voting for Michelle Obama?

My daughter, an avid Nick watcher, adores her. She likes him too.

4. My boys voted in the Nick election for the Prez

Having said that, I know plenty of their friends' parents are repugs and conservative that don't allow their children to watch Nick. Or they don't have expanded cable with the channel for their kids to watch. Nickelodeon is probably considered some socialist/commie indoctrinating tool so their children must be shielded from it

5. Still, look at it this way:

Even if we subtract 13% from Obama and give it to Romney, we have four more years.

6. That is because Romney looks mean

That is because Romney comes off looking like a Bully. He was going to fire Big Bird.

8. Given that McCain got 49% in '08...

Kids must REALLY smell a shitty fucking deal coming down the pike with Romney.
