Romney/Biden?

Romney/Obama? LMAO

Personally I'd like to see Ryan/Jackson with Jackson occupying the Mayo Clinic

In that case... the House picks Romney

and the GOP in the Senate will require a supermajority, in turn, nobody recieves 60 votes and the speaker of the house will be the new vice president.

Different than what I had reported earlier this morn but for obvious reasons makes much more sense. Need to stop watching WGN in the morning I guess?

Geesh, maybe Reuters is gonna be right on their electoral college prediction. Especially if Donald Trump and Richard Murdock continue to represent the Republican Party these last 13 days.

Donald Trump does need to shut his pie hole if Romney wants to win this thing.

no supermajority needed. in case of a tie, biden would break it. so you potentially could have romney as prez, biden as vice.
