If they win the popular vote and don’t get to keep Obama, they will riot.

Our Framers anticipated most elections would end up in Congress. The popular vote count is irrelevant.

There is no Constitutional crisis should the election to go to the House of Reps.

wins the popular vote while losing the Electoral College, will he accept the result and step aside or will he allow his supporters to attempt some sort of extra-Constitutional effort to perpetuate him in office?

...I hope the next thing you would see on the news is a long stream of military vehicles moving up I-95 from NC to remove the “Interloper”.

The WHOLE IDEA of the Electorial College was to ensure that the President have WIDESPREAD support from all parts of the country—not just support in the (easily bribed) cities.
Otherwise, the election would go to the House.
That’s how it’s ‘sposed to be, anyway.
If anybody cares.

So many are fooled by “national” vote polls.

Here’s the reality:

Win all the 2008 McLame states (not that difficult)

Flip Ohio, Florida, Indiana (already a lock, I’ve handled it), and Penn.

If not Penn, then NC + VA.
