I think the idea is that he can't lose Ohio in a bubble.

If he wins none of the actual swings (not counting like NV and NH) but Virginia, I think Obama still wins if I recall correctly.

Nate underestimates the power of the Jeep ads to chip away the Ohio block of Obama's electoral wall.

We did 5 Virginia polls in October- Barack Obama led all of them, by an average of 2.8 pts: http://t.co/G6ZFsQIn

Romney pulling away with it :\

VA polls are great

if obama wins VA but loses every other swing state (including OH and IA) he has exactly 270 votes. would be hilarious.

 

[Bam Bam Baklava]

Is there a countdown for this scandal?

Feeling good and full of hope. I went ahead and donated again.

Yup. Same here. I want to be able to throw a bit of salt into the wound at Thanksgiving by saying, "yeah.. I voted for him. Not much good it did in this state, obviously. But I helped in another way - with a sizeable donation. Looks like it worked, eh?"

Still waiting for my blue "Ohioans for Obama" t-shirt. I hope it arrives before Election Day.

11 PM. It would've been called earlier, but they had to wait for the polls to close on the west coast before it could be made official.

While Obama might have lots of paths to 270, the margins in the states he'll win will likely be more narrow than they were in 2008. So we're still likely looking at a late night. Probably somewhere between 2004 (where we had to wait up until after midnight) and 2008.

I also found a timeline for Clinton's big win in 1996. It's a forum post, but seems correct, from what I can remember. That was a great night.

We'll all have a pretty good idea once things get rolling, though.

Although, I will be up all goddamn night.

Not sure it'd be a good idea for Hagel to endorse Kerrey. It's either just preaching to the choir or is just going to help Fischer in the last minutes.

I just had to remove a friend, for the first time on Facebook, because he decided he'd like to rally support to the Mitt Romney campaign by showing grotesque photos of late Ambassador Stevens' corpse. Unreal. I can't wait for November 7th, 2012.

 

[Officerrob]

So the Daily Caller, the same people behind the last Obama video nonsense, has info about a senator being involved in a sex scandal yet they are waiting until the middle of the night on the east coast to release it? LOL, yeah, OK

Don't worry, it stings at first. But the more you do it, the better it feels.

I comb facebook daily looking to remove people now. "Give me a reason, motherfuckas!!!"

Fast and Furious was actually pretty stupid, the only problem in condemning Obama for it is that similar policies were implemented by Bush.

Like they fucking ran with the out of context "You Didn't Build That!" for months.

And then this Libya thing...it's clown shoes, really.

OMG...the Romney campaign bought $5,000 worth of food and handled it to supporters outside to give back to them as they ushered in?!?!

Please tell me this shit isn't true.
