Wonkette: It's in the bag for Obama

Here's a funny, snarky, clever analysis of the race as of today that should put a smile on your face. Read the whole post and you'll be feeling pretty good.

Even though the Internet has already concluded that Barack Obama lost the election after some unknown wingnut vice president lady gave one surly speech last week, we couldn’t help but check out the electoral map anyway, just for kicks. Above is the fun Pollster map, and then you’ve got your FiveThirtyEight map, and this is a good thing to read also. Now play around with this stuff for exactly two minutes, preferably while drinking, and after those two minutes you’ll realize that Barack Obama still has this shit safely locked up.

Does it really take that much more time to say that Obama has an XXX to XXX lead on McCain in electoral votes?

Popular vote means nothing and even with a sitting President who proved that, they insist on using that meaningless statistic.

My bet is that somehow, if the electoral college votes were closer than the popular vote, they'd be quoting that instead. Anything to add drama and get more viewers.

"preferably while drinking" ...

:toast:

Wonderful read! K&R

And this election should've been about GEORGE BUSH -- not about Obama or Sarah Palin.

And NO election is ever going to be a blowout again.

Did you even pay any attention to the news today? Did you hear Obama's speech this morning?

Keep on doorbelling. Keep on phonebanking.

Funny from planet pluto. :crazy:
