Me thinks we have a chance to celebrate on Nov 4th.

1. Winning states like North Carolina? Virginia? Florida? North Dakota?

Hell, having a nonzero chance at taking a bite out of places like Georgia? Making McCain so much as have to devote resources to Mississippi?

Me thinks we have a chance not just to celebrate on Nov 4th, but to gloat in an ostentatious, loud, boorish, triumphant and really, really satisfying manner.

2. Fingers and toes crossed, praying, wishing, hoping, visualizing, and working in the Dem office.

Trying to do my part, just like you, I'm sure.
