SITE: FiveThirtyEight.com: Electoral Projections Done Right

Obama's projected electoral total is at high point, so he will be accused of all things possible as this window narrows (like Cindy insinuating that he's trying to kill her son by voting no on the same war-funding bill that McCain also voted against). Hopefully, the anger-stoking won't reach a point where his life is in danger, but McCain's campaign needs this anger to turn the tide.

A very risky business that doesn't exactly put country first.

I can't wait for this sort of era to pass.
