I would be willing to bet Obama wrote both in '08
LMAO. You probably don't really need a speech to concede. You're not campaigning at that point. Just a few words and a few thank you's.

That would be complete toss-up territory - a decline of 4-5pts which completely erodes his 2008 margin. And go back to all those pre-election polls you were posting with +7/8 or more Dem advantage.

That margin is also likely to further erode if it's based largely on early voting, since more independents vote today and Romney had a big edge there.

And don't tell me about exit polls. I'm not paying any attention to those after debacles in previous elections.

Some info on early exit polls from Florida:

67% of today's voters are White, 16% are Hispanic, 13% are Black and 1% are Asian.

Forty-nine percent of today's Florida voters say President Obama would better handle Medicare while 47% say Romney.

Twenty percent of Florida's voters --one in five-- waited until late in the campaign to decide which presidential candidate to support, while 78% say they made up their minds before October 20th.

is 16% Hispanic high?

Mourdock is looking dead in the water in the Senate race in INdiana.

It is about high time the Republican party puts the evangelicals/Tea Party in their place if that or Akin's seat ultimately costs them control of the Senate. This is the second cycle in a row now they have let the crazy come out and cost Senate seats that were in the bag.
