So a Mitt victory ensures our participation in a war that will ultimately be a waste of lives and resources. I think Obama is less likely to go on a pre-emptive war unlike the chickenhawks of the Republican party, who I would assume will be going to war on Day 1 (since Romney plans on doing everything short of curing cancer on Day 1).

See I've never really bought into that kind of fear-mongering. Even in Canada with all of my reasons to dislike Harper and the CPC, his being likely to send us to a war isn't really a concern to me. Could he? Sure. I just don't think that anyone is that stupid right now though. The west has just gone through two unproductive wars where sentiments were largely to bring the troops home, not go fight some more!

If you predicted a few weeks ago you missed the hurricane, Gov. Christie endorsing Obama (among other things). Why would you predict early though? People vote today for the most part and the votes are counted today as well.
