My eye is twitching.

There is an old saying "never underestimate the ability of the Democrats to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory".
That said, this thing isn't over yet but I'm a bit concerned because it's closer than I would otherwise like it to be. I'd prefer Obama safely up by between 8 and 10 points simply to get us outside the margin of error.
Cheers

The People tended to be small-minded and conservative and not very clever and were even distrustful of cleverness. And so, the children of the revolution were faced with the age-old problem: it wasn’t that you had the wrong kind of government, which was obvious, but that you had the wrong kind of people. As soon as you saw people as things to be measured, they didn’t measure up." (Terry Pratchett)
