I'm trying to comfort myself by keeping an eye on the betting odds, which still have Obama as a clear favourite. Betting odds in elections are correct far more often than any of the polls. And I need something to comfort me, because the entire world is screwed if Romney wins, just as it was when George W. got in.

(I'm not even that big a fan of Obama's foreign policy -- but at the very least, it's foreign policy overseen by someone with a brain and a conscience. Have not seen much evidence that Romney has either.)

Hey, there are a lot worse things than magical thinking. Whatever gets you through.

Me, I'm still clinging to hope. I guess I just can't handle anything else right now. It's going to be a close race, in any case. (And please, Mittens, keep putting your foot in your mouth.)

Maybe this will make you feel a little bit better :) (It was fun making it, anyhow.)

I am ridiculously proud to be from the bay area but I never did give a rat's ass about baseball. The only way you would get me to even go to a game is if a really hot guy asked me.
