Re: USA Elections

yup 103 to 54 now for obama, dems look set to win - half way there now

im my view mccain would have done better without palin

dems are also doing well in the senate and house elections, close to controlling the senate. If they take both, does obama get a lot more control?

can someone explain this to me by the way? whats the difference, what do they do? etc...

Re: USA Elections

Yeah, Sen Dole went down in flames from hell; her last couple of ads were so sad, I am surprised she got any votes at all. I have not seen too many other results.

I voted and I am in gmt+8 - how is the Beeb coverage?

Re: USA Elections

The senate and house are something like UK's House of Lords and House of Commons. Each state has two Senators in the Senate. The number of people in the House depends on population of the states. All bills (or laws) must be approved by both the Senate and the House before it can be signed by the President.

Re: USA Elections

Obama makes me angry.
Hope he doesn't screw this country up.

Oh well!

Re: USA Elections

What I hope is that no one tries to assassinate Obama before he gets his game on. They have already stopped 2 different groups with high-powered, scoped rifles - the Secret Service only has to miss one to cause disaster.
