Ah, we
remember it well;
Senator-elect Hillary Rodham Clinton began a victory tour of upstate New York Friday by calling for elimination of the Electoral College.
At an airport news conference, the first lady said she would support legislation seeking a constitutional amendment providing for the direct election of the president.
...."We are a very different country than we were 200 years ago," Clinton said. "I believe strongly that in a democracy, we should respect the will of the people and to me, that means it's time to do away with the Electoral College and move to the popular election of our president."
The first lady also said that because of the closeness of this year's presidential election, "I hope no one is ever in doubt again about whether their vote counts."
And, congratulations to Yale's Ray Fair for once again being nearly dead bang on with his prediction of a
dead heat in the popular vote;
The predicted two-party vote share for Obama is 49.0 percent ....The presidential election is thus predicted to be very close regarding vote share....
