The sky is falling

Wed Aug 20, 2008 at 06:48:09 PM PDT

In the last couple of days, Barrack O'Bama's projected electoral count has fallen below 270 in the sites I check everyday.

Just now FiveThirtyEight.com reports that McCain is winning a small majority of the simulations i.e. Win % for BO is now 47.9 vs McCain's 52.1%.

What does this all mean ?

The sky is falling.

More below the fold.

Apparently I need to use at least 300 characters in the Intro Section.  Super lame.

How Gore could solve the Dem dilemma [w/poll]

Mon Mar 10, 2008 at 08:04:39 PM PDT

Yes, another gratuitous Al Gore diary--or not.

There has been a lot of ink spilled recently about Al Gore playing deus ex machina at or before the Denver convention, swooping in to either be the ultimate superdelegate, or to be the compromise nominee for president should Obama and Clinton not be able to win outright.

All of this supposes Obama does not tie or win PA [which may or may not be probable], or that Obama or Clinton doesn't make a major gaffe and doom their candidacies.  Personally, I believe Obama has a decent shot at PA--no repugs to help Clinton out--and anything less than a 10 pt win is basically a loss for Clinton because of what happened in Ohio.

So how does Gore fix the Democrats' dilemma?
