I said before somewhere that there are (using a bit of a gross generalization) essentially four types of DUers

1. Blindly pessamistic DUers
2. Blindly optimistic DUers
3. Rationally skeptical DUers, who have some concerns over the outcome of the election, but for whom those concerns are tempered with (their best attempt at) reason, evidence, anlaysis, logic and thoughfullness
4. Rationally hopeful DUers, who feel a sense that this election will be ours, but for whom those feelings are tempered with (their best attempts at) reason, evidence, analysis, logic and thoughfullness.

I'm in the #3 group.
