i think the displaced citizens of New York City have been denied their full right to vote.
it wasnt Colbert that destroyed the city 3 times in three events
and i think Jamie Madrox may have been leaning towards Obama. That FUBARs everything :)
Marvel reflects what happens in the real world?
*looks at the current state of 616*

My guess is that Colbert would have kept his presidency if McCain had won.
