John Adams

Who's going to win OC? What's your electoral prediction? I just did that 270 to win site and predict 311 to 227. Gave Obama Florida and Ohio.

I've been saying Obama was in a runaway for a long time but if you Dems don't see that the landscape changed dramatically over the last 8 weeks, you're nuts. Obama still has an advantage in the electoral mapping, but he's gone from a wide lead in a lot of states to a close lead in many. Romney's return to PA is not good for team Obama. Romney probably doesn't realistically think he can win PA, but it's close enough for him to give it a try, and it's not a Hail Mary anymore. Romney needs to pull off some surprises on Tuesday and win in a state that it seemed improbable he would. I still think it's Obama's win but at least Romney has a shot. Given my dire predictions earlier in the campaign, I am really excited that Romney actually could win. (This is the worst news ever for the Romney supporters, since I've never backed the winner.)

Prostitution is illegal in the Dominican Republic like pot use is illegal in California.

Since when is paying for sex in the Dominican Republic illegal, or even frowned upon?

When the Star Wars theme park opens in Orlando, it will be awesome. Lucas Arts had some hits and misses with ownership of that franchise. I expect Disney will have more at bats and more hits.

It's stupid because it insults intelligence, yes, in thinking that such an awful ad would move the needle. It's just pablum crap. But people who go the high-and-mighty "offensive to women" route are over the top. Is anyone really offended...or is the right who claims to be offended by a sexist undertone full of ****? I suspect full of ****.

It's a stupid ad, but for the right to get their panties in a wad about it being insulting is the right's version of PC that they so often whine about.

I'm 0-5. Mitt probably wants me to stay home.

WTF?

On the second replay, they show the holder receiving the snap. Looked like a normal placement and kick.

PA is in play? I doubt it. http://www.realclear...1891.html#polls

The electoral map still favors Obama. Going off RCP, let's assume that Romney wins the tight race for Florida, as he 100% must do to have a chance. I'd put PA and Michigan into Obama territory, as would probably most here. The brings the electoral count to Romney 235, Obama: 237--each with about 35 votes needed to clinch it up....and most of the remaining states on the map are truly undecided: VA - 13 NH - 4 CO - 9 NV - 6 Iowa- 6 Ohio - 18 WI -10 Obama has a slightly larger lead in Wisconsin, Ohio, Colorado, and Iowa. The others are a dead heat. Obama still has more paths to victory so he's still got the edge. Somehow Romney has to capture Florida and one of the other big prizes. If Romney wins, it will be a nail biter. Obama still has a shot at a landslide.

Really? Things look much better for Romney now. Tightening Ohio is awesome news. Florida remains a must.

Been like that for a while. But if you look deeper, it has PA as a tossup, even though Romney trails by 4-5 and I can't believe PA will go Republican. Other states are tossups too, even though you would guess what way they will turn. Flo Rida and Ohio are the big undecided nuggets. Last I looked, it had Florida as +2 for Mitt and Ohio as +2 for Obama. Florida is HUGE for them both. Much bigger for Romney though as his math doesn't look like it works without it.

Mitt looks like a possibility in Florida but Obama still has more paths open to secure 270 votes. Last night's debate probably didn't move the needle. They both looked childish.

I was being sarcastic. Romney doesn't have a chance.

Good data point. I'm sure Jersey will be close.

I heard someone make a point about this today. Both candidates were in such a hurry to get to their talking points that they made zero effort to connect to the audience. If either one had done that instead of rushing to snipe at each other, they would have been a runaway winner. Instead they competed to look like top dog on the Jerry Springer show.

Last night was like an audition for The Real World DC. That tweet is asinine.

I think every kid who went to McQuaid in the 80s read Alas Babylon. Great book but I'm a sucker for the post-apocalyptic novel. Adding Dies the Fire to my Kindle now.

Take a long look at that. The camera angle is not straight but it's not from the end zone. Even looking square to the field, the ball is not ahead of the marker. It's pretty clear. When I saw it yesterday, I thought what you said, but the above photo makes me thing differently. WTF? And yes, spot was insane. As that ref walked out from the sideline, he kept tracking upfield from where the ball was.

What makes you think TJ is better? Honest question. Just because Fitz is struggling doesn't mean TJ is the fix. Things would get worse you know.

And feed CJ more...not Fred. No offense, they make a great 1-2 combo but CJ needs to be the 1.

52 yard FG and hand the ball to AZ? I liked the call. That's a tough FG for anyone.
