    Silver has Minnesota at 99.7 percent and Pennsylvania at 98.7 percent for Obama.

    Many conservative voices (including the aforementioned Morris and Will) are counting those as wins for Romney.

    It sounds so outlandish, I'm a little nervous that they really do have some dirty tricks up their sleeves.

    That's the brilliant part. Half the party will try to find someone more electable, the other half will shriek RINO and that electable guy will have to degrade himself trying to suck up to them, thus ruining himself for the general election.

    All of it sounds goofy. We've gone from the closest election in forever to a blowout for either side.

    Barack Hussein Obama is talking football right now.
    He really knows his stuff.

    It's not really a shift. I've always thought this was the most likely scenario. I just enjoyed focusing on the ifrs that there might be a 20% chance that it might not be that way, while others insisted there was no chance.

    It's only been 12 years since we had an election that was a technical statistical tie, where the margin of victory was a less than the margin of error in the voting mechanisms, and had to be decided by a protracted court battle.

    I don't know how it could possibly have been closer than that.

    Does Romney know anything about sports? This could be a trainwreck of an interview with Berman.

    People whine about unions donating mostly to Democrats, but go meekly along with this.
