I noted tomorrow, Wednesday, on my calendar because Chuck Todd said the election would be over...
by that day. Way back, he said that because of so many people voting early across the country that the election would have been decided by now, and I noted it. I have no idea if it could be true, but I thought it was interesting. I think Obama has been ahead since the earliest states started voting, so I would think if the election is over, we probably won!

1. I remember that and when he said whoever is ahead in the polls
on October 15 will be the winner.

4. That has been repeated by many.
Pukes and Dems. Especially a lead around 10% and some 200EVs.

Voters have cemented now, and it is all over but the voting.

2. I've kept the same thing in the back of my mind as well.
I remember when he said that, and I keep thinking about that day (tomorrow) inching closer. I wish I could wake up and it would be Thursday.

8. Let's not start listening to Chuck Todd at this juncture...
two-thirds of Americans will still be ON Election Day.

I think he may have had a point re: early voting, but the man has pretty much gone off the rails the past few weeks with his "analysis."

9. Early voting hasn't started yet in many places, starts Thursday 16th in NC
We and all of our Dem friends can't wait to vote on Thursday. Usually half of all voters have already voted here by election day and it may be even higher this year due to increased interest and addition of more convenient voting places. The McCain/Palin Repub hatefest may have energized his base but it has also energized many opposed to him.

11. Hopefully someone will point this out to Chuck on Thursday
His response should be very amusing.
