This is getting scary
Novakula is predicting huge gains for the Dems. This is getting very suspicious. I think they're trying to get our hopes up.

3. An obvious ploy to get out the repug vote
It's a scare tactic to light a fire under the asses of apathetic GOP voters.

8. The election is in the bag
all this huffing and puffing you see is just an attempt on the part of the media orgs to get more money out of the parties.

The Dems have already won. Its over. Relax.

12. DONT Relax. Get out there and vote, and drag 5 friends to vote
And give 5 republicans a ride to the wrong polling spot, just in case.

9. The networks are playing it up like, "it's close, it's close",
which is great if it get the Dems out to vote. It would be sad if the Republicans pull it out by getting out more of their base than the Dems. I don't understand how people who claim to support Democratic ideals could not be bothered to vote.

10. There should be huge gains for Dems. Except for a couple out-lier polls
all the national polls show a big lead. But, opinion polls and exit polls have shown Dems winning for several elections now, and that hasn't been the final result.

Vote anyway. We need huge unsuppressable margins.
