John McCain endorses the “Phony” Mitt Romney prior to the New Hampshire 2012 Primary. I guess McCain believes a “Phoney” is what is needed to lead the U.S.A.

“For Liberty: How the Ron Paul Revolution Watered the Withered Tree of Liberty” is a documentary Produced and Directed by Chris Rye and Corey Kealiher that follows the historic 2008 Presidential campaign of Ron Paul from the perspective of grassroots activists, and showcases the unique, often bizarre, yet groundbreaking projects they undertook as they brushed aside traditional campaign methodology.

It’s so great to see Ron Paul’s message resonating with so many people, including Julie Borowski who is an admitted former neo-con who was converted into a Ron Paul supporter…

The first votes in the 2008 Presidential Election were counted just after midnight in Dixville Notch, NH with Barack Obama getting 15 votes and John McCain 6 votes.

Now, after all the votes are counted and the electoral college votes are allocated, the 44th President of the United States of America is Barack Obama and Vice President of course is Joe Biden.

It was projected Barack Obama would be President-elect as soon as the polls closed on the west coast. Fittingly, Hawaii where his Grandmother passed away just the other day was one of the states that put him over the top.

Watch video of the Breaking News announcement of the projection of President-Elect Barack Obama:

270 electoral college votes were needed and Barack Obama won 364 electoral college votes, while John McCain won 163 electoral college votes. (to be updated as 1 state still not decided – Missouri – 11 electoral votes)

The first votes that were recorded for this 2008 Presidential Election came just after midnight when the 21 registered voters of Dixville Notch, New Hampshire cast their votes and they were quickly counted to be released to the public as Dixville Notch has traditionally been known as “First in the Nation”.

The votes went Barack Obama 15 and John McCain 6

Watch the video of David Shuster of MSNBC Hardball’s coverage of voting in Dixville Notch, New Hampshire:

For a little history on Dixville Notch being “First in the Nation” here’s a quote from The Balsams Resort:

“In 1952, New Hampshire first provided its residents with the opportunity to vote in Presidential primaries. In these early elections, many small towns around the state competed to get their votes in first. But ever since Dixville Notch was granted the privilege of being a voting community in 1960, it has continuously maintained the honor of being First in the Nation to report its results of the Presidential election.

In order to maintain this honorary status, every single registered voter in Dixville Notch must turn out and vote. Just before midnight the day before the election, these voters come to The BALSAMS and take a headcount to ensure everyone is present. When the polls officially open at the strike of midnight, each voter heads to a booth in the Ballot Room and casts his or her vote. The entire process takes about a minute.”

It’s interesting to note that Dixville Notch has traditionally been a win for Republicans since 1960, so is this an early sign of what’s to come tonight when the polls across The United States of America close?

We’ll have to wait and see!
