My imagination, or has the mood in this forum improved dramatically since just yesterday?
For myself, I'm not going to feel like anything is "in the bag" until election night, but my fear of Romney somehow pulling a win out of current circumstances is subsiding a bit. I was hopeful before anyway, but hopeful is coming much easier today.
I guess the Nate Silver 538 bump is a part of it, a bump that happened even before a bunch of good new swing state polls that should bump things towards Obama even more. Chris Christie speaking well of Obama. Romney being such an ass with his Jeep lies and fake relief efforts that I think he's doing himself more harm with the people who see through his lies and insincerity than doing any good with the few who might buy any of his bullshit.
There's also a good chance of good employment numbers coming out Friday. And there's little time left for any surprises to shift the status quo, a pretty good status quo, before the election.
All in all, pretty hopeful. It's just odd that it's happening in a way that seems almost like a tidal change to me since yesterday.
Maybe that's just me.

Heck, I didn't even get a first fill. So what am I supposed to be taking?
I've not been too worried for quite a while now, but I do agree with you. The signs are very good.
...since last week's office Halloween party.
I'll let myself have a little more tonight, then all the leftovers go back to the office so as to evenly distribute the remaining excess, empty calories as a shared burden.
Privatize a few tastes, socialize the weight gain, that's what I always say.
...in NH, not to mention all the donations I've made. I'm doing my part.
