    If that were black and white I'd say that's Wally from "Leave it to Beaver" (a show from a time long ago when America was half sane).

    McGruff, Jimmy, I'd say you guys are pretty close. We shall see (and then be glad it's done with!)

    I agree with BS here. I'll say >290 votes but no more than 310. Lot still up in the air.

    Really?? Obama over Romney in 2012 was around 3 points and it was an electoral landslide. If any candidate gets 50% of the vote (not going to happen), we're looking at a Mondale-esque defeat.

    if there is violence it will be because people want to have an excuse to be lawless but i can definitely see something occurring regardless who wins

    If she gets 50% of the vote, she is getting 330+ in the EV.
