   is the first to declare (beating all other news agencies in the process) Barack Obama as the winner of today's election.
   
   ***please note the victory is based on  the electoral college map, and not necessarily on the popular vote.
   
   In a further prediction.... Mitt will soon announce he will join next year's edition of 'Dancing with he Stars'

         The funny thing is that it was the other way around.  Mitt Romney had an early lead.

   In all seriousness, if I had an extra $1,000 laying around, I would bet Greek One is right.

         Did you do simulation GreekOne or because you know Obama will have three touchdowns and two field goals in the swing states? :-)

         Really? Prediction stats are still 70:30 for Obama.
         
         Btw, I didn't say who I want to win or who should win. I'm keeping my political opinions to myself in that regard. I only predicted who will win.

   My calculations are based on the racial divide in the US.
   
   Many states had unseasonable sunny weather this past summer.  This resulted in increase tanning,
   
   The result is that many white folks will be more inclined to accept a black President.
   
   It's purely scientific

      Do you think he has a little gold lame loincloth to go with the perma-orange?  I hear that Greek One has a little silver number with tassels that goes down a storm with the ladies
