Stealing from by brother.

The Tight Presidential Race:

The MSM (mainstream media)  insists night after night that the Presidential Race is too close to call. Yet Obama’s voter registration drives in all 50 states are ignored. Surveys only call cranky old people who don’t have caller id on their phones. And nation-wide surveys don’t count in the Presidential Race, Electoral College delegates are what count (that and the Supreme Court). According to most of the Electoral College counts done by non-MSM organizations (including right-wing groups) Obama is leading by any where from 68 to 137 Electoral Votes.
Obama McCain Margin
Real Clear Politics 322 216 Obama +106
Electoral-Vote.com 316 209 Obama +107
FiveThirtyEight.com 303 235 Obama + 68
Pollster.com 284 147 Obama +137
AVERAGE 306 202 Obama +104
Last time I checked, +104 Electoral Votes makes you President of the United States.
That is not a very close race. So why is the MSM telling and retelling this close race story? Do they expect enough Election Day shenanigans, enough voter purging, enough electronic machine hacking, enough denial of service to make this a “close race” at the last minute? Close enough that the Supreme Court can call the winner again? Do they need to prime the pump so that the expected “official” results seem reasonable and expected on November 5th? Hmmmmmm….
