The upside to all the "I didn't see it coming" quotes is that there have been no Oakland Raiders like "I don't agree with whats going on here" lines. Thats what pissed off players say.

I didn't see it coming is the party line, and they are toeing that line nicely.

But, I would argue previous polls were less reliable because of the methodology used. Science eventually catches up. People once thought the Earth was flat.

Nice point.

Not aimed at your or anyone here specifically, just a general shot at the die hard McCain guys that kept their hopes alive by throwing mud at "the Commie polsters that have been in the Obama tank since the beginning." Im certainly fine with a little caution when it comes to looking at the polls, in fact, I encourage it. Again, there is only one pole that matters, the actual vote.

Looks like a little vindication for all those national polls that McCain supporters kept insisting were wrong. In the week before the vote I saw Obama any where from 48% to 52% and McCain between 44% and 48%. Final result... 52%-46%. Now I'm no huge fan of the polls, there is only one the really matters, but they have taken a ton of heat over the campaign. I think some may need to eat a little crow on that front.

I went to a boring old library to vote. There we're lines wraping around that place!

I like it!

You're all Hitlers. Every last one of you.

I spoke to soon. Thanks for reassuring me, I was getting concerned that the board was being overrun by sensible posters.

Wow! I have been lurking here for a long time. This might be the first time I have seen a discussion about anything that hasn't devolved into calling someone Hitler, or a War Criminal. Nice job guys!
