Sam Wang at the Princeton Election Consortium always has great and thoughtful analysis. Today's post is as insightful as his election analysis always is, and he sounds a hopeful note this morning:
In national polls, the race has swung back three points since the Presidential debate to a narrow Obama lead. This return has been steady over time ... back to where polls were in August. The decline in the state poll meta-analysis has been blocked by Ohio. Today, President Obamas November re-elect probability is 84%

If you are a Sam Wang fan (like me), please give this a K&R.

I have never understood why any liberal would give him consideration.
