What will happen if the election is stolen?
Someone asked this on Reddit. One responder said he'd be so mad he'd totally blog about it. He was joking, but there was a lot of truth in his words.

What would really happen?

3. Obama will win
But when it comes to the congress.....

Obama has such a large following and has so many supporters who know how they might steal his election that they won't even try flipping the vote this time.

But when it comes to the congress..... they will try. If they can keep congress in republican/blue dog hands then they tie up Obama and keep him from working his magic to the fullest extent.

Over in the ER Forum of DU we will be looking very closely at the returns and pinpointing the ways congress might be stolen. We may not be able to change the outcome in 2008, but come 2010, with everyone's help, we won't have to have this conversation because we will have reformed the present day voting systems.

5. I've been wondering if the media...
...has been playing up the prediction that Obama will win in order to create a sense of complacency that they can later blame for "low voter turn-out" that will be the reason for the surprise McCain victory.
