Obama above 66 million votes nationally!

[harry_pothead]

He stands at 66,056,628 votes. It's a full 4 million over bush in 2004 and 7 million over Kerry. McCain is at 57,839,570, more than a million votes under what either 2004 candidate got. Our margin over McLame and Failin-Palin is more than 8 million votes, almost triple the 2004 margin.

Its very worrying that it was.

7. We desperately need to fix the education system. Without an educated

independent-thinking electorate we will not see much positive change in those numbers.

10. Oh please.

Give me a break. Obama won by 7%. That is a large margin. You are going to have to come to terms with the fact that each party is pretty much guarenteed 40% of the vote every election, regardless of who is running.

8. Thanks for ruining my day further. Oh god. That's a terrible thing.

Many of them were just auto-voting, depending on us to save their sorry asses from themselves.
