Romney got 53%

wait for it

and Obama still won the electoral college by a large margin.

It would be worth it just to see the heads exploding all over Fox News and the rightwing blogosphere.

Obama would still be President and there wouldn't be a damn thing they could do about it.

Except be completely obstructionist if they keep control of the House.

Which they are likely to do anyway if they keep control of the House.

And have large Tea Party rallies if they lose control of the House.

Which they are likely to do anyway if they lose control of the House.
