Are we Democratic?

"Polling shows Obama approaching the 270 Electoral College votes needed for victory..."

Whoa, Whoa, WHOA! I thought we lived in a democratic society that operates on the Principles of Capitalism? So even now before the people get to vote the media and the electoral college have already decided the next President of the United States of America? Does this mean the Elections next month are rigged? The whole voting process a sham, hope you feel warm and fuzzy about yourself, process that means absolutely FRICKIN' nothing?

What is the good ol' USA becoming? The g-man has voted to allow government ownership and control of banking, and we the people nod and smile and say thank you for stabilizing our economy?

From where I sit, it appears like we are headed for a Socialistic Dictatorship; which one of our rights will be trampled on next?
