It would be nice if that happened, and resulted in electoral reform (since such electoral reform would likely be in the interests of the GOP and Tea Party).
Jacob's creek St Hugo Cab Sav here, but it was a close race between that and a glass of Bollinger Special Cuvée. Just one, though, I have to make a delivery later.
The interesting question for defense attorneys is . . . do you really want to lose all that business from marijuana defendants?
I love marijuana cases. They're usually pretty easy, you can usually get a pretty favorable result, and you can usually get a pretty good fee for the work you do. If you lose that, it kinda hurts business.
I like the gay marriage thing because, as I've said many times before, more marriage inevitably means more divorce, which is good for business. I just finished a custody dispute between a lesbian couple and a gay man concerning a child who was conceived with the gay guy's sperm for a decent chunk of change. That case would have been impossible ten years ago.
The ND Senate seat is leaning Democratic with 96% reporting - this could be something to tease Nate Silver about, given that his model had it at 92% chance of Republican Victory.
The Democrats could end up with as many as 55 Senate seats, the way things are looking at the moment.
Where is the best place to go to for a summary of what ballot measures have been accepted and defeated in what states? (e.g. like weed and gay marriage in Washington, and the anti-death-penalty measure in california?)
Just so glad the political ads are over with. Going to enjoy driving to work without a candidate closing I77 again.

Why is that something to tease him about? He said there was an 8% chance of victory for the Dems. He didn't say it was impossible for the Dems.

I was kidding. If anything, it would speak worse for his model if he got every >50% prediction correct, as this would point to underconfidence and hence poor calibration.
To clarify, that shut up wasn't directed at this thread. It was for the whole world.
No, now someone needs to mash up the Obama FTW speech, and hopefully do it Oppa style.
Andrew - Has Nate Silver made a deal with the devil? I've never seen anyone more consistently correct in his predictions. Maybe he's made a deal with Statistics.
In serious seriousness there is only one politician I am currently aware of that I would enthusiastically support to the point of maybe even campaigning. That person is Jared Polis.

Also, Sheep Dip is a wonderful post-election Scotch.

Horrible possibility: if the geeks are right about Ohio, might they also be right about climate?

Well, someone at least finally seems to be getting it.

Seriously, though. It's going to be Broodax.
