Sure it will. In 2000 the republicans controled congres so of course they won't change the system. with the democrats controlling 2/3 of the house and 60% of the Senate you can be damend sure cahnges to the electoral system will be made and McCain would have ZERO choice but to accept them. Fact is if McCain wins the electoral college( which if he does he's BARELY do it ) and Barack wins the popular vote there will be riots in the streets that will make the LA riots after Rodney King trial look like playtime. McCain will never be looked at as a legitimate president and Congress will be in ZERO mood to compromise on anythjing and without Congress McCain isn't going to get shit done. Despite what some people think it's CONGRESS that passes the laws not the president.
All I can say for McCain is be careful what you wish for you may get it. Fact is McCain at this point should HOPE he loses. A McCain win will actually fuck the GOP up so much it will take a generation for it to recover.
