Slow people.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Yea, Obama is clearly doing much better amongst white males here than in Ohio.

Richer white men or Bob Casey, Jr.?

Probably a bit of the "macho" factor among blue collar types who don't want to vote for a woman. I suspect that's part of the reason Obama did so well among working class voters in Wisconsin.

[Verily]

Obama is winning 69% of support in Philly and 62% in the Philly suburbs...I missed the last few numbers and hes winning new voters 6 to 10 [right?] and Hillary is winning undecideds by the same number.

She talked too fast so im prob wrong on the last numbers...

Yeah Clinton is winning undecided 58% or 62%, I think.

Then based on pre-election polls this thing should be called.  A 7-8 pt advantage AND THEN grabbing 60% of the undecideds.  (which where around 12-15 in a lot of polls)  Yet exit polls are not showing a 10 pt by any means. 

This night is confusing me...

"Decided in the last week" in an exit poll does not mean "I really did decide within the past week" or "I would answer an opinion poll as "'undecided'".

Richer white men, no doubt on that either.

Well, I'm almost certain that the exit poll is wrong, because it doesn't seem internally consistent. Whether it means Obama or Clinton does better I don't know though.

[Eraserhead]

The Clinton people seem kind of sad while the Obama people seem optimistic, for whatever that is worth.

[Person Man]

hmmm....I guess no one actually voted.

Have you ever been to an Obama rally. . .

A lot of the questions will only be answered by some respondents. Really only the big demographic quetsions (race, gender, religion, region, sometimes age although people lie about that) are ultimately worth looking at.

Tell me about it.  The exit polls across the board seem very contradictory.

Wow... Exit Polls in PA indicate that only 38% of Democrat voters claim that they would be happy with either candidate.

That's for those who thought the Dems would be able to heal up quickly.

God Bless Hillary Clinton.

I'm talking about the surrogates.

Yes, I know. And my reasoning is based on those numbers, primarily.

Yeah, the Zombies rose up and killed everyone in Pennsylvania yesterday but the media was too scared to report it as they would loose ratings with no election and built props.
