    Part of me sure wants to say, “is it?” The media wants a horse race. Any foregone conclusion wouldn’t get people on the edge of their seats on election day.

      The media wants a horse race. Any foregone conclusion wouldn’t get people on the edge of their seats on election day.

      The fact that this is possibly the case, and maybe even almost certainly so, is fucking aggravating.

      However, I do believe this race is stupidly close, just because I have so little respect for a large proportion of the American electorate. When people eat that much sugar, drive rather than walk, and watch that much Right Wing propaganda, you’re going to get insanity.
