It was nice knowing you.And it turns out that the Democrats were only grossly overestimated in a handful of states, Georgia and Alaska primarily...and some races were never really races at all (NM went blue by 15 percent, and PA was won by double-digits (10 and change) for Obama...the tightest race in the Northeast along with New Hampshire, if 10 can be called tight. But the biggest surprise one had to see coming was North Carolina, home of the closet Democrat in NASCAR country, and the only state that was once listed as a solid McCain state that Obama wound up winning (by about 15,000 votes), IINM. McCain was gracious in defeat, but he needs to rip his party a new one on Friday...and as for Colorado, that state is going to be blue for years to come, completing the sweep that started in 2006. Others are less certain, especially if Obama fails to live up. Voters in the moderate South have spoken...don't F this up! |
