"Buoyed by early voting in his favor, Barack Obama leads Mitt Romney by five points in the pivotal state of Ohio, according to a new TIME poll. "Counting both Ohioans who say they will head to the polls on November 6, and those who have already cast a ballot, Obama holds a 49% to 44% lead over Romney in a survey taken Monday and Tuesday night.

6. Well,

I agree Missouri, Indiana, and Arizona are tall reaches, but even without them Obama gets more than twice the Electoral College votes than Mittens.

5. A little ambitious for this year
|
but the odds are good the map will look just like that in either '16 or '20. The Thug Party is screwed
 and, if we can avoid a major sex scandal or some other failing of character, we will be kicking their ass for decades to come.  |

9. Excellent!

Things were starting to look too close for comfort. Ras (tied) leans a little right... SurveyUSA (O+3) tends to be a little left in their results. I didn't know where to slot Suffolk (tied)... but it was starting to look like a very narrow 1 point lead.
This will help be sleep better tonight.  |
