Down to the wire now, and you heard it here first. A few days ago I said West Virginia would be the big surprise. After reading this article from www.huntingtonnews.net I still say that first of all West Virginia will not be called right at 7:30 pm when their polls close or even 8pm. The reason will be voting machine malfunctions and a much tighter than expected race that will later in the evening finally be called for Barack.
No West Virginia won't be cobalt blue but it will be a shade of baby blue in the end. It bears remembering that unions are a huge presence there, and Democrats outnumber Republicans in registered voters. Turnout has been huge so far. Sooooo....yeah, WV will return to electing a Democrat for Prez tomorrow.
Virginia will be blue, a deep blue. Florida is getting lots of attention and assumption that older people won't vote for the young guy with the funny name. But....many of Florida's voters are old enough to remember the Great Depression. Do they really want their kids and grandkids to get stuck with another one of these? Hell no. I think that's what's driving them to wait for hours to vote.
My Dad was right when he said we're living on a credit card and our kids are going to have to pay the bill. Tomorrow we say enough is enough and start paying as we go.
