i remind myself that even in '08 they were all saying it was still a contest.

seriously, i feel like i'm living in a parallel universe. EVERY story - EVERY GODDAMN STORY - left and right says it's too close to call (this AM on bbc: 'romney campaign smells victory' and being given serious attention).

and yet we've got nate and sandy's political fallout (non stop positive coverage for bamz and the anti-FEMA comments from romney / ryan) AND chris christie and, you know, polls.

also egg is still speaking in public.

perhaps we are at the late 2008 moment when everyone was trying to hide palin's clothes grifting and meltdowns?

"Gut math" is a pretty good description of Scarborough's work: "I consume a bunch of facts and then I shit out some stinky useless turd later."

But that still gives us "ONE MAN LEAVES". Can't we lower that average a little?

They had one of those very accurate polls back in 2000. Turned out to be not so accurate* after all. But Dubya was appointed anyway. ___________________________________________ * I'd like to point out that Gore won the popular vote. He also won Florida if you consider butterfly ballot confusion and intent. he also won Florida if you count the actual fucking votes. My point is: The American people got it right in 2000. Five members of the Supreme Court got it wrong.

That last paragraph would make a good question for an opinion poll.
