Trouble is, all the paths lead through Fantasy Land.

the incumbent has a number of different paths — five, to be exact

Just like the Five Pillars of Islam.

If we overthrow The Kenyan Muslim, there will be riots in the streets comparable to the Rodney King riots.

need to stop crap like this as there is no way he won my state, even when all amendments went right wing .

Mccain won the state on the night 53% to 47% but all their cheating and voting more than once changed it .

obama cheated Hillary and the country .

Now it comes out that some in NC voted more than once, he should not have been on the roles in IN and no way did he win my state.

If it is to be, then be prepared. A famous man once said "if there be trouble,, let it be in my time that my children and grandchildren live in peace" I'm sick of the "do nothings" threats,,, let em bring it on

“How President Obama gets to 270.”

Simple: Don’t back Newt for the nomination. Romney wins and goes on to be defeated by Obama.

GO NEWT GO........

So at best they have him at 275. So if he loses even one medium or large state that he and Kerry won, he’s toast.

this is gonna lead to civil war

Why reach for Jim Beam when there's a perfectly good 30.06 within reach? A plurality of our folks would surely have sold their votes to Fat George, right after Lexington and Concord.

And there's plenty who thought such as what happened following the election of Lincoln would be over and done in a week or two.

Won't be no standing army, just long, slogging protracted and determined resistance.

The Rule of Law, not men, and a Constitutional Republic, or no deal.

I believe it is highly probable that he will win.

After the Repub primaries, who ever the nominee is, there will have been so much blood letting and hatred between the Conservatives and RINO’s that one or the other will sit out the election.

I also believe that the Dems will get the House back as well as hold the Senate.

This primary season is the worst I have ever seen ... and not one vote has been cast yet.

Please don’t flame me - but talking to many others - not die hards like us - our best bets are Romney, huntsman , and Paul.

If these folks get their way, 270 will be beside the point:

National Popular Vote -- Electoral college reform by direct election of the President

Insidious!

...the ideological middle.

The ideological middle, my a@@. The Washington Post thinks that only Democrats represent that mysterious ideological middle. They have no idea of what the hell they're talking about.
