Here's the electoral map as we start the year in earnest. The model thinks Joe Biden is favored to win about 331 electoral votes come November.

I will never the gorgeous fun of Obama's re-election night. There was that Fox News clip of Karl Rove, incredulous and indignant, storming off the set , going down to their techies and insisting that they must have made a mistake. I played that clip over and over and over and over.

The clip on YouTube from 2008 election night showing the broadcasters calling each state from the networks culminating in the family walking out onto the stage in Chicago. I must have watched that 40 times. I must say it was a combination of joy, pride, and incredulity that this could happen in my lifetime.

South Carolina, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Indiana no longer "safe." I doubt Fat Bastard will lose these states, but it looks like he may no longer be able to take them for granted.

Go and vote like your life depends on it. This election will be extremely close, and we can't afford any complacency. If Joe Biden wins, it's going to be by a thread, and we can't risk 4 more years of Trump.
