That's right. The Soothsayers say it will be Obama but the Electoral College has the final decision on December 17.

You're really obsessed with this, aren't you?

The electoral college voting in someone who has already officially conceded defeat is simply not possible.

It's over.

Mr. Obama won.

Get used to it.

God has the power to cause the electoral college to defect.

I'm pretty sure that those guys swear an oath on the blood of their first born to be faithful electors.

Anyone who votes for a Pro-Abortion candidate because of a pledge is about as faithful as King Herod.

Andro, you may want to start swimming. You see, you're in the middle of de Nile, and the crocs in that river are huge.

I am sure the Democrats would be flattered if Romney truly tried to win their votes.

Regardless of the fact that Mitt Rpmney has already conceded the election, you might want to re-examine your thinking:

a. God caused Barack Obama to be elected in the first place.

b. God is everlasting and unchanging.

: : God will not cause the Electoral College to defy His own will.

... but the Devil might try, anyway ...

And they will vote as they have throughout the 20-th century along the party lines with which they were elected.

Obama is in. Any thought to the contrary is wishful thinking.

... or delusional thinking.

Besides, I read somewhere that any electoral collegiate that defects will have to answer to the will of people.

Can you say, "Lynch mob"?

Often we have one electorate that defects. So what are the odds of 66 defections? 2 to the 66th power?

probably astronomic enough to make entertaining such notions in any serious manner a surefire way of being wrong.

2 to the minus 66 th power which is so close to zero you can barely see the difference.
