In re Gerlinda's article on the idea that the elections would get cancelled, it would be hard for Obama to do that at this point.  Early voting has already started at a sizeable clip.  I heard on the radio eysterday that Romney was ahead in the early count by 5%.  So if he did try and cancel the elections, ti would be all too obvious he did it because he was behind and that he was cheating and I'm sure there would be a revolt in multiple ways that would be beyond his control.  I think it is probably too late for that strategy.
