You were saying ...

2008 - 129 million votes cast for president.

Ummmm..., oh, that increase? Those were all the blacks who voted for the first time in their lives... LOL... [not to say anything about all the dead people...]

---

Obama won by 9.5 million votes. Do you know 10,000,000 people who stayed home?

Well..., I've been told by FReepers here that they wouldn't vote for McCain because he was not qualified per the Constitution, the same way Obama was not qualified... LOL...

You've got all kinds here on FRee Republic... :-)

The people who wouldn’t vote for McCain or Obama on principles were not the type to stay home. They would have voted third party or written in a name. They are the people who would have gone to the polls to vote for local candidates and ballot issues. There were less than 2 million third party votes in the entire country. I get tired of seeing people use empty arguments like this to make a personal attack.
