    The thing I find flummoxing: Obama and Romney are tied in the latest poll numbers.
    I assumed Obama would be way ahead. Considering everything we know about Romney: hiding his money offshore etc., etc., etc.

    Hmm. This cartoon from Monday's Guardian in the UK probably captures the reality of the resignation that a lot of voters have towards Tuesday. A Democratic disappointment against a right-wing demagogue.

    Swallow hard and vote for Obama. The alternative just doesn't bear thinking about.

    Some commentators seem to think that Romney is in some trouble, not being able to come up with good surprises so far. Mathematically, without surprises, Romney can't get the presidency. Let's see...

    I have to admit. Much closer than I thought. Vegas at 3-1 odds for the pres. way to close for those odds.
