Sean Hannity is losing his audience. Even Fox News viewers could only take so much false propaganda.

The president's victory margin establishes the mandate he needs and we want him to have. As that margin grows, it needs to be news. The public needs to know it so the mandate can take hold.

I know a lot of the punditry can't understand why we're still talking about vote counting in an election decided nearly two months ago. But if an election goes from a squeaker in total votes on election night to a blowout after two more months of counting, and no one knows, did it really happen?

The Republicans kept the house, but the margin is dwindling as each 50/50 race gets called for the D's each day. It will be harder for Speaker Boehner to obstruct everything if he sees that tactic costing his party the house in '14.

This is an undertold story, well behind Obama's reelection and even the D's expanding their margin in the Senate. If the D's go +11, they'll need just +14 in mid terms to get the gavel back.

He's getting close to Sam.

Question, why does Larry Sabato give Virginia to Romney? He's a Virginia guy, but ALL the recent polling has Obama ahead or tied. All of it. I'm starting to think Va is safer than Ohio. Can anyone explain?

.... let's stop looking for polls to show us that there is still doubt that Obama will win Tuesday in the electoral college, and handily. They're not coming. The polls have broken (past tense, it's done) for Obama. But hugely, but definitively. In fact, he's thisclose (I'm looking at you, North Carolina) from being just Indiana and Nebraska's 2nd district short of repeating his 2008 map.

Romney's only chance to win Tuesday is that ALL the polls are wrong, which could happen. But that IS what has to happen.
