You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Nate Silver is best for commentary; but statistically speaking, his model has too many moving parts, which can increase uncertainty. (Every part with a material impact is another chance to misspecify it and introduce a deviation.) that of course is a large part of why he's best for commentary. For an actual forecast, though, I like Sam Wang's Princeton Election Consortium: [link] The site itself is down after Sandy passed through, but the headline forecast is up. (The state polls give Obama a current median of 318 EVs, and Wang gives him a 95% chance of victory. I think that's a bit overstated, but I also think Nate is understating it.)

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

8 or so of us are going to a Maria Cantwell and Denny Heck campaign event in cat costume to ask them to sign a "No Cat Food Pledge". We want them to pledge not only not to cut Medicare, Social Security and Medicaid as part of deficit negotiations. We also want them to oppose such cuts as means of "strengthening" Medicare, Social Security and Medicaid.
Are motto: cutting Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid in order to save them is a trick, not a treat. We don't want today's retirees or tomorrow's to have to live on cat food.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Argh. My mother keeps having business trips over Thursday nights, so she wants me to be with my dad/grandmother. But now I'm in this chorus that rehearses on Thursday nights! And I already had an unrelated Thursday night commitment once, so out of four rehearsals so far, I've made two. Now she's gone again next Thursday, and I just can't. So I guess she'll find some evening plans for him, and I'll just get there at 10 for the overnight/morning. Argh!
