6. holy crap and I changed my registration to Florida because I thought it'd carry more weight there
I live 50/50 in Savannah and Jacksonville and thought that a Florida vote would go further.

At least I am working in Georgia on Election Day as a poll watcher.

7. Even IF it is too late to flip Georgia, Obama might help to win the Senate race there.

8. Stop! Stop now! It's too much!

I cannot get my head around possibly winning Georgia. GOPers could explain away a lost election, they could explain away losing VA (all those "non-real" Americans in NOVA), they might could explain away NC somehow (all those colleges and the hippies in Asheville), but there is no way they could ever handle losing Georgia. To win the White House and blow up the GOP's Southern Strategy in the same day? No. It's just too much.
