    It's less than a week away. Will you be staying up all night to hear the results.
    I will, and you ?

    I don't stay up to watch our own election results so I'm not going to watch some other country's.

    US politics, for all its problems, is damn entertaining.

    I feel like such an idiot for saying this, but is there a large festival/ceremony all night? If there is I probably will...eh

    American Politics. Who looks the best. Who is for abortion, who is against abortion. Which one won the debate I'll vote for him. He's black I'll vote for him. He's black I wont vote for him. Romney is a republican who will most likely ruin America in the long run with his pro capitalism funding from oil and car companies. Obama is a socialist who will cause anarchy and not help with economic recovery.

    You only get two choices in the land of freedom. :)

    I'd love to but I don't think I will be. I'll have to catch whatever highlights there are. Colour me optimistic but I don't see Romney winning no matter how I look at it. His whole campaign has been a hopeless groping mess.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,515 ✭✭✭✭admiralofthefleet


    i will. i hope obama wins

    Definitely, you can't beat a close US (or UK) election for late night televisual entertainment.

    I woke up the Neighbours at 5am shouting last year last time when Obama crossed the finish line, the same again would do nicely - four more years !!!

    I hope Gary Johnson wins.

    I don't stay up to watch our own election results so I'm not going to watch some other country's.

    I actually cried when Obama crossed the finish line. Delighted so I was! Don't know where the tears came from though :o

    2 parties that try and act like they have polar ideas and policies to each other when in actual fact they are pretty much the same. Elusion of choice really

    So no, I wont be staying up to watch it!

    what's the point in staying up

    The results already came out a fortnight ago. :).

    Will Definitely be staying up this year. Didn't have much interest last time as it was clear who was going to win. Supporting Romney have money on him to win@2/1. So long as Gallup have him ahead i'm happy

    while not as different as many make out , the republicans have moved significantly to the right this past few decades , around the time kennedy was president , thier was hardly a paper between them

    I'm going to be in the States for it. Going to the voting place and going to try to blag a ballot.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,288 ✭✭✭TheUsual


    Yawn.
    2 party politics ... think I'll stay in and watch my "Sex and the City" box-sets instead.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 483 ✭✭emer_b


    How is it that for the size of the country they only have 2 candidates running for leadership? I know there's only 2 major parties but talk about not having much choice. Doesn't make for the most interesting campaign when they only have one opponent each to slag off.
    I know they have a complicated system of preliminary voting aswell but I still think a 2 horse race is rather dull!
