Wow....the conservatives in America like on a different planet. They nominated the worst possible candidate with historic unfavorability numbers. Add in that Mitt changed positions early and often during the campaign. And he lied about everything and anything. Yes, Obama "stole" the election because the GOP handed it to him. chasing history
Actually, Obama got just shy of 51% of the vote, which is a simple majority of the vote. Unless you are counting people who didn't vote at all in that category. jpj1421
Will Factcheck.org have to eventually do a piece on Sandy Hook? Wingnuts are already drumming up conspiracies that it was staged so that the President could "advance his gun control agenda".

"65 million people (5 million more than Romney got) liked the President well enough on election day to give him a second term." --- The fact is that more people voted against Obama than for him. Count up the non-Obama votes and it clearly shows that the majority of Americans did not want him to have a second term. Oddly, I had a hard time finding consistent vote totals on anyone other than Romney and Obama. I guess after the election has a winner people stop counting and reporting on the totals. psyrus
As usual the Republican party is more interested in tall tales and conspiracy theories that looking at the nuts and extemists in their party. You ran a failed candidate. Did anyone with a brain think he could win? NOPE! The Fundamentals of the Economy are Fine
You disbelieving conservatives are amusing. Don't remember any of you complaining about voter fraud in 2000. Besides, Obama's approvals were consistently polled at just above 50% and he got just above 50% of the vote. That's not really surprising in anyway. Perhaps, and I know this may sound crazy, 65 million people (5 million more than Romney got) liked the President well enough on election day to give him a second term. jpj1421
Obama didn't need to cheat to win the election. All he needed was Mitt Romney. Jeff West
T or F- Obama is a Martian sent here to take over earth.
False.
He's from Venus. verve
Why bother to vote? road515
The American conservative movement is insane, but ultimately that won't matter. We've got a younger, smarter, more diverse generation coming of age, and they're already laughing at all you flat-earth, science-denying, paranoid half-wit mouthbreathers. Welcome to America, gomers. DiTurno- More people in this country identify as conservative than liberal you dolt. People don't identify with liberal values. That's because Liberals have no values. You think people want to associate themselves with a group like Occupy? They don't want anything to do with such disgusting people. No one does. Filthy scumbags that exist merely to take from society offering nothing in return. Decent people disdain those ideals. Get a grip scumbag.
mephisto - Comparing liberals to the Occupy groups is like comparing conservatives to the Westboro Baptist church folks.
We are a center left country. Obama is not a progressive he's a centrist.
The biggest success of the GOP the last forty years is moving the center to the right.
BTW Too many trolls casting bait in these waters.
agreed
Unbelievable. Have you all forgotten that there are precincts all over the country where Romney got all the votes and Obama got 0 ? (in Utah, Wyoming, Louisiana, Mississippi to name a few places). Do some research.
Or maybe you didn't forget. You're just ignoring the facts like the Faux Nooz drones that you are. You think that repeating debunked, unproven claims often enough will turn them from lies to fact, but it won't. It just exposes your racism and ignorance. Tatt2- You make the claim, you post the link. Please post a link to validate your claim.

Bottom half of the page has precincts that Obama got zero votes.
Not as many but Romney was a very poor candidate. agreed
Give me a break already!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is out right ridiculous!! Enough is enough! AuthorRtorressadler
Y'all make me laugh. The usual suspects going on about how the other "usual suspects" support obama for the "usual" reasons. C'mon. Maybe y'all can't read (unsurprising) or are lacking a functional frontal lobe (again, unsurprising), but facts are facts, folks. You can do the research yourself, dig out the numbers from the election commissions, crunch the numbers and come to the same conclusions. Nate Silver and Sam Wang were able to take publicly available polling data and some basic statistical methods to generate a fairly accurate prediction of the outcome of the election. What about the folks who were "unskewing" the polls because the pollsters were "carrying water for obama"? Yeah, they were way off the mark, and their methods were...totally opaque and obviously wrong. Y'all keep it up, though. muddyfuddyPA
Those of you who can never accept that President was reelected:
Hey, some people who voted for him in 2008 did not in 2012, and some who did not vote for him in 2008 did in 2012 (I am one of the latter) but he was both times apparently considered the lesser of two evils!!
You can call him whatever you want: Kenyan (I have a Kenyan Indian friend), muslim (I know a number of good muslims), Hussein (I have a cousin-in-law named Hussein).
We are a diverse nation and he was born American and he is the President, it makes no difference whether you accept this fact or not because majority does not agree with you (even some who did not vote for him)!
However, you still look for some other reason like voter fraud to try to delegitimize his reelection!
I hope to vote for Gov. Christie in 2016! I wonder if he will make it out of the GOP primaries! EIK
In a related story, Stalin, Castro, Mao and Chavez are all very jealous of Obama's Philadelphia election results. squarepeg
Nothing new. ACORN and the Black Panthers smile. dogman5
John F. Kennedy committed voter fraud to win the presidency in 1960. FACT! lonewolf 10
59 precincts with zero votes for Romney, an acknowlegded fact, and the premise of the article is that there was no voter fraud. What a disgrace. BillMcG- It amazes me that people actually believe that almost 20,000 people could walk into a voting booth and not press the wrong button.
If I set up a voting booth with one question that asked "Would you like some crack" and put two buttons on it "yes" or "no", and then asked 20,000 crackheads to vote, I guarantee you that someone will mistakenly hit "no". It's irrefutable. mephisto - Memphisto:
How about this explanation: They were as horrified of Mr. Romney being president as you seem to be that Pres. Obama is the president so that they double and triple checked before pressing a button!!!!
And your crack about "crack" is not funny or informative, it just double emphasizes your prejudices! EIK
Meanwhile, elected PA Republicans are trying to pass a gerrymandering bill to rig the next elections, as part of national plan endorsed by the head of the Republican National Committee. True. Jeff West
Fact check is bull. Obama and voter theft go hand in hand. BarbGOP- T or F. It is more important that Barb be right than correct.

T or F: Montgomery County still supports Obama because he's black.
Hint: False
T or F: Delaware County still supports Obama because he's black.
Hint: False
T or F: Rittenhouse Square still supports Obama because he's black.
Hint: False
T or F: Phillies2008WSChamps still hates Obama because he's black.
Hint: True Tatt2
T or F: Phillies2008WSChamps supported Romney because he's white.
Hint: TRUE carl and sons
T or F: Philadelphia still supports Obama because he's black
Hint: True Phillies2008WSChamps- True or False - those 59 divisions are a drag on Philadelphia, the state and the country, consuming far more in government resources than they contribute.
Hint: TRUE jfar86 - Actually with registration fees and gas taxes, Philly is literally paying for the roads in rural PA. Also Black males get the least out of their FICA payments than any other social group.
Tell you what, let's vote on it in 2014. Cuddles
