Just screen cap them and you can post them in as photos when needed.

I could. Then bring them into GIMP and put them all together... sounds like too much work.

If you use Windows, just hit the print screen key which captures your screen image, open up paint, and hit paste or CTR-V and there you have it to crop and save. pretty quick if you are into that I told you so thing.
 
I see too many people are not posting a map or giving a good full bodied prediction.

Haha, you are my opposite; giving Obama a landslide. Interesting!
 
Mine's something like this: Obama-275, Romney-263

My only really iffy choices have been: Colorado (Romney), Iowa (Romney), Ohio (Obama). I figured I might as well argue something more risky than RCP would do.

As for our senate race, I remind folks here that it is close, but I too still give the edge to Berg.

Just as well since you would just have to delete them anyway after King Mitt's coronation.

You dreamers are so cute.
 
Do you mind if I ask why you think Democrats will win Arizona, Indiana, and Georgia, but lose New York, New Jersey, New Mexico, and Illinois?

I had all those aforementioned states as tossups.... I have NY and NJ losing because voter turnout will be minimal at best because of the storm in the cities which generally control the rest of the state(s).

I suppose the rules of the game were that I had to pick every state...

I can make a new map as to what I actually will believe will happen including tossups...

Because he doesn't believe in polls? :lamo

All the ACORN-ish democrats live in the city(s) and most of the time the cities control the state - at least when it comes to vote.

Progressives cant register and then throw thousands on buses with a bag lunch this time around and it will be difficult to vote multiple times....

Cities control states not the 80% or 90% of the rest of the state - the cities do - now the cities are flooded..... Now lets see who really cares when it comes to political issues when 1-3 feet of water bounds them from their voter precincts, not to mention cars, boats, looting, DANGER.

This is hardly a landslide the popular will be less than 5% of the total. A landslide would b 360 178
