Buried half way down in one of the less obvious features is the fact that the black guy is polling ahead nationally and in all of the states that matter, and that - as a passing footnopte of no obvious interest or relevance - his last Ohio rallies have been getting audiences of 60-80,000.
Also amusing - no mention of the mass defections from the Repubs to Camp Obama. Or of the Obama ground game.
McCain remains relaxed and confident, obviously - much made of the fact that 'The Mac is Back.'
I hope there's someone standing by with Lysol for those exploding brains at BBC Election HQ.
Had a panic-stricken call from a German friend over the weekend worried McCain was closing within striking distance.
I assuaged his fears.
It's really hard to get a valid population for those things.
You just want a butt-load of Statistical data to munch, crunch, slice, and dice.
:-D
