“What will the Frogs and Krauts think(?) when Obama gets only 35% of the popular vote, and the Dems lose control of the House?”

They will whine, of course. If you want the details of the whining, just drag out the media ‘reports’ from December ’04.

If they want to vote in the US election, there is a process in place that would allow them to do so. It is called ‘statehood’ and ANY nation can petition Congress for admission to the union. If there is some hang-up about going past 50 states, Vermont wants to secede from the Union. Let France or Germany make us an offer to replace Vermont. Or any other State that feels it can do better.
