Do you think Romney knows they are done?

I watched The Clinton Years and they were saying they knew they had won on Saturday, and that was before early voting. So do you think both Camps know by now? I think President Obama looked confident and Romney's wife looked like she had just lost her best friend.

they knew McCain was going to lose the election on the night of the last debate, October 15, and he informed McCain that very night. In this election I think things didn't totally gel until this week, Sandy made it happen faster because folks were able to see the President in action.

We need to not only win but win by the highest margin we can get, because every vote we make, is a message to the Koch brothers and other billionaires that our democracy is NOT for sale to the highest bidder, not if we can help it!

Remember when Hillary was so tired and broke down while campaigning in New Hampshire, I believe?

Suddenly, people turned to her because of the pity vote.

Could that have been what Ann was trying to pull? Hey, it was worth the chance.

OR, it could have been that they saw the report floating around about Romney "quitting" Bain before they were exposed on their fraud with eToys and are afraid it is going to go viral before Tuesday?

I don't trust either, obviously.

...I believe he always thought he had a shot.

But I think he was crushed when he saw the Early Voting numbers -- particularly Nevada.
