Which is why Nate had the odds for Obama at around 80%.

But this is as it always is. Bush wins by narrow margins both times and it is a mandate and a come to Jesus moment for the democrats. Obama slaughters McCain and Money Boo Boo, and it is time for the Democrats to get serious about compromising.

Speaking of which, not once during the campaign was it mentioned that starting literally 1/20/2009 the republican congressional caucus swore an oath to do nothing except work for the defeat of Obama, that they refused to negotiate in good faith on any legislation, that they set a record in the senate for most filibusters, and that Obama repeatedly attempted to coax them into any compromise at all by offering up deals that made most of us here shit our pants in outrage.
