I was going back and forth from one of those clickable electoral college maps and the recent polls on realclearpolitics, and it's kind of encouraging. Obama could lose Ohio and Florida and still win.

Here's the headspinning political shit. If Obama got Ohio, but lost Florida, Iowa, Nevada, and Colorado -- all possible -- there would be an electoral college TIE. And the Republican majority house would elect the President.

Actually there are several ways that could happen. *shudder*

I tend not to get too worked up about polls.

That's gallup and it's registered, not likely voters. I would love to be reassured, but . . .

I heard that Gallup is switching tomorrow to reporting only likely voters, so Obama will look like he took a hit if you look at Gallup numbers over the two days without realizing that. NPR said so, so it must be true.

Still I don't get worked up about polls, still too far out to be of any real indicator. I will be more optimistic at the exit polls. Polls in themselves are inaccurate.

I heard most of the exit polls were cancelled.

Anyway, that five that the article you cited reports -- poof, gone tomorrow when they report likely voters.

Michelle Bachmann has a lesbian step-sister whom she has treated with kindness and respect her entire life -- except that as a politician she calls gays and lesbians depraved and vile.

It points out to me just how cynical many of these folks are. They are taking these positions knowing it will reach a certain constituency. Hate mongering when you don't even hate. That's worse somehow.

Oh, I'VE got one!
 
This ultra-religious scare-tactic video pissed me the F off the other day. It's horrible! Nothing but fear-mongering and propaganda. It made me feel physically ill when I watched it.

UN to monitor US election.

Hillary sounds like she means it when she said in an interview with Marie Claire that she will not be running in 2016, that she wants to just live her life. "Clinton said. . . . But I really want to just have my own time back. I want to just be my own person. I'm looking forward to that.'"

The last quote I read by Bill -- and this isn't old -- was that she just needs a rest, give her a rest, and then . . .

I think she means it. She has lost her ambition for the job, something which Bill will only do the day he dies.

It's kind of scary because there is not another Democrat out there powerful enough to just take the nomination and likely win the election. She could. I don't blame her though. It's a nasty business. I wish her luck and happiness.

Tea Party Paul Ryan Greece Budget
Info to Call your Senators and House Reps

Dear ,
Now that you have signed our petition to stop Rep. Paul Ryan's Republican job-killing budget and support the Congressional Progressive Caucus Back to Work Budget, there is one more thing to do to make our voices heard: call your member of Congress and tell them to say NO to the Ryan budget and YES to jobs and shared prosperity.

Here’s how: Call (202) 224-3121 and ask to be connected to your representative. (Or use this webpage to find your member’s name and phone number.)

We've already gotten close to 100,000 people to say "yes" to investing in jobs and rebuilding an economy that works for all of us, not just the people at the top. Your call to Congress will underscore that message.

The House is about to begin debate this afternoon, and a vote could come later today. Now is the time to pick up the phone and make the call. Tell your member of Congress to choose jobs, not austerity. Vote NO on the Ryan job-killing budget and YES for the Back to Work Budget.

Thank you again for all you do.

Roger Hickey, Co-Director
Campaign for America's Future

Done. Thankyou for making it easy.

AZ Legislators Backlash LGBT Non Discrimination Legislation with "Bathroom Bill"
 
Just when we all thought that AZ could not get anymore fucking insane, just when we started to believe that the Feds are really going to handle the anti immigrant battleground that is the AZ legislature, just when Phoenix, decides to pass a non discrimination bill...there is a backlash from the conservatives.

Does this really surprise any of us?

Sort of.

Oh how it sucks to be caught off guard.

The city of Phoenix wants to make it a crime to use a public bathroom that is not in alignment with a persons birth certificate.

Seriously.
