Despite little money and official presence I think Obama has a gambler's chance at pinning a blue ribbon on Texas ~~this~~ ~~Tuesday~~ today. It will require a perfect storm of turnout but that storm may well be brewing.

Follow me past the ellipse and quadruple colons for my caffeine induced analysis...

I think Obama could pivot greatly on the "Real" American/Virginian Rethug meme by shifting his ads in battleground states from the voice over montage to a wide variety of ads featuring supporters. Follow me past the quad-colons for my pitch...

Now I'm not saying we are out of the woods by any stretch -- we still have 33 days of smears, caging, stunts and other dirty tricks to avoid but...

Well, let's say the Big O that has been rolling across this country and gathering steam continues to snowball... can we get to 400? 500? 600? over 9000?! More importantly will there be a sweet irreverent poll at the end? You betcha! ^_~

If you are looking for serious in-depth analysis, follow me below the fold... continue to scroll down until you reach the comments as someone may have added something insightful there. Yes this is a dumb diary but the ATMs are still working which has made me breath a sigh of relief...

Omaha and surroundings comprise Nebraska's Second Congressional District (NE-02) and Nebraska (like Maine) awards 1 presidential elector (EV) to the winner of each congressional district.

What are the real odds of Obama taking this district and what scenarios for winning the election, if any, does this district play into? Follow me below the fold and be gentle, this is my first diary.
