16. no he wouldn't- Romney wasn't in it in 2000- he was expected to

win because of the Mass carry-over voters. (the blurring of our boundary to the south).

McCain won in 2000 over * bush -

I have talked to others this morning who said that the predicted landslide for Obama DID influence their choice to opt to vote McCain in order to deflate Romney- these are people who would not consider voting for McCain in the general election. Romney spent megabucks here. He expected to win. I'm glad he didn't-

But I wish that hadn't skewed the real wishes of those who would otherwise have voted Dem.

My oldest son was tempted to vote his heart and choose Kucinich (my ideal candidate as well) - the media had everyone convinced it was going to be a landslide for Obama- but we both stuck with Obama, and I'm doubly glad after seeing the outcome.
