It ain't over until the fat lady sings. After 2000 and 2004, I'm not going to consider it over until the votes are counted.

Thanks for the polls. I'll head out to geek out over the numbers.
As far as the two examples you cite, that's the way it is. It's not a crime for people to have to work extra jobs because they don't make enough in one job. That's their chosen occupation and they knew the situation going into it. As far as the medication goes, it's not an easy problem to solve, but Obama pointing it out without any true solution on how to fix it doesn't make it go away.
Agreed on the votes. Anything can happen.
