PSYCHOBAMATRONICS

If your as psycho as I have become, Xanax during the day, Wild Turkey at night, Ambian for sleep, espresso ALL the time, wake-up and repeat...AND you think you want to watch the returns tomorrow night with some semblance of sanity, I can't help. For those other, less than real Americans, here's a link to Intrade's realtime odds page. Just the thing to keep the evening lively. BTW, I think this map will update if you refresh the page periodically.

For what it's worth, Virginia, my dear purple turning blue home-state is looking pretty strong. Here's hoping that the O's coat tails are long enough to drag Sam Rassoul into the house and send Bob Goodlatte packing.

On the other hand, Kansas is looking grim. No surprise and I wouldn't care save for the fact that Miss W. and myself spend the better part of a day there twice a year on the east/west, west/east sojourns. I was just thinking that if they went blue they might learn how to brew coffee that could defend itself from the veal cutlet.

Throw a bearclaw in the radar-range, I'll be back.






Here's a link to the Dialy Kos tracker. Much prettier without the de rigueur RWB color scheme:
