I don't know, is that legal? I think one sticker per voting mom max!

I think he's got Ohio. I've always doubted Florida though. If Obama takes Florida, I'm going to have to re-adjust my antennae. But it would mean not just an Obama win but a major buttrape for Romney.

Obama is in good shape in Florida - :clap: I'm also surprised at Florida and if Romney team internal polls were correct in Ohio ( Romney did not campaign there yesterday ) then fat lady sings.

Instead of election results, my wife and I are watching Muriel's Wedding. I can't stomach watching Wolf Blitzer acting impressed when they call Oklahoma for Romney or Massachusets for Obama, while watching Florida's reporting districts slowly go from 9 to 11%. Yeesh.
