...which is actually a pretty silly claim to make, since we can't really have any idea how 'close' it is until votes have been counted.

I swear they think that if they say Romney is going to win enough, it'll just happen. There isn't the slightest chance of a Romney win, despite what Sliver says.

Indeed. It's called farming.
Don't be deceived when our Revolution has finally been stamped out and they tell you things are better now even if there's no poverty to see, because the poverty's been hidden...even if you ever got more wages and could afford to buy more of these new and useless goods which these new industries foist on you, and even if it seems to you that "you never had so much" - that is only the slogan of those who have much more than you.

Every time someone on Fox mentions "Media Bias", take three drinks.

Maybe "The Blame Game" values system:

What undid Romney?:
Sandy, one drink.
Christie, two drinks and a bite of a sandwich.
47%, shot of champagne.
'not conservative enough', sip of everclear
Flip flops, vodka and rum (I'm not a drinker, put something more clever here)
minorities, half a forty.
no white turnout, tall boy
voter fraud, butterschnaps

I'm sure you get the gist...
"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.

I actually have a superpower. My liver processes alcohol so efficiently that people near me can't get drunk. I've woken up nights with my liver sitting next to me with an entire case of Hennessy asking me why I'm such a pussy for not staying up later drinking more.
