"Posit the following vote totals, just for the sake of this demonstration: OBAMA: 1,000,000 votes. MITTENS: 1,000,000 votes. OTHER: 1,000,000 votes. Further posit that my vote is the sole ballot remaining, and yet to be cast. Demonstrate: How my NOT casting a vote for Mittens increases Obama's vote total from 1,000,000 to any other positive or negative integer, anywhere along the numerical scale. Use both sides of the paper, if necessary. Show ALL of your work. "

Have you been voting Republican in the past? Did you vote for Bush, or McCain?

If you have been voting conservative in the past then you are counted as one of our team who needs to vote for us to win. So here's your answer. Obama: 1,000,000 votes Romney: 999,999 votes

Your non vote has elected Obama.

Now, do you have any other math questions?

Now, do you have any other math questions?

None that you have even the slightest chance of comprehending -- much less correctly solving! -- from the shockingly inadequate evidence provided. You are, to put it as charitably as possible, howlingly innumerate.

1.)You begin, literally, with a baldly unsupported (and unsupportable) assumption: that any given political party does, or even can, somehow peremptorily "own" a vote, prior to its being cast.

To label such an assertion "moronic," sadly, would only serve to ennoble it considerably. Support said assertion,to the best of your demonstrably meager abilities. I'll even be gracious, and offer bonus points if you're wearing big, orange floppy shoes while so attempting. (I entertain easily.)

2.)You either cheat (ineptly), or else are simply incapable of reading for simple, baseline comprehension. Your "answer" -- poor, palsied thing that it is -- arbitrarily changed the given parameters of the equation, by simply lowering Mittens' already established vote total, for no stated or supported reason.

The epic, towering imbecility in attempting something so profoundly bone-headed and self-humiliating -- in a written and archived forum, mind -- requires no further elucidation on my part.

Yours is, quite simply, the most spectacularly buck-toothed, knock-kneed and profoundly inbred demonstration of purest, unalloyed FAIL I have ever yet had the goggle-eyed and disbelieving experience of witnessing, online.

Congratulations, I suppose.

(Dearest God... please, oh please save me from the spastic fumblings of the thickly and obdurately innumerate -- !)

FINN: get a load of this thalidomide circus act, willya...? ;)

This one supremely bone-headed, howler, in (still-)bemused retrospect, genuinely does merit a final and inarguable pimp-slapping:

I'm not a Republican; I'm a conservative. The Republican party never, ever gets to simply take my vote for granted -- they have to earn it, each and every time out, by running candidates whose views on the issues (as demonstrated by their previous track records, while in public office) reasonably align with my own... and I'm the only person on the face of the planet capable of judging whether or not they have, in fact, genuinely done so to my own satisfaction.

They didn't. I won't.

They can try just a wee, little harder next time out, if my vote is so supremely important to them (as I certainly do keep on hearing, hereabouts).
