[Sheepshank]

4. Nowcast has Obama at 80%.

I am not sure how a 2% drop in a forecast is too problematic? Aren't forecasts no more than educated guesses and nowcasts current measurable trends?

5. Nowcast has Obama at 90%

But thanks for your concern.

[Warren DeMontague]

6. OhPaFla are ALL still at least a bit blue.

Thats really the whole game.

[LongTomH]

8. OhPaFla are where the GOP is concentrating its vote blocking / vote stealing efforts!

That's how we got Gee Dubya in 2000 / 2004!

9. Yeah, that's not a coincidence.

Still, I'm optimistic.

The words: "President Mitt Romney" scare the hell out of me!

11. I'm taking comfort from the fact that he seems to have gone out of his way to find the most inept

12. The question is why is vote stealing going on?

America is supposedly the leader of the world and the most advanced country in the world and yet in every election now we have to worry about our democracy being stolen through election fraud by Republicans.

And America thinks IT has the credibility to monitor elections in 3rd World countries?
