And now predicting steaming piles that pollsters will be delivered in the next 48 hours.

These are the predictable lines that you will see, for about a week, from a whole collection of minor league pollsters who may or may not have even bothered to call anybody

"This race is tied"

"Overnight shows a four percent bounce" (Ras shows 6)

"We see a tightening, with that great speech Michigan is now in play."

"Romney turned the tables and now has the President on the defensive"

"We are seeing a Republican Party more unified since Ronald Reagan"

"With that speech Romney woke up the base, bitch slapped it twice and put it on his shoulders"

Feel free to add your own predictable nauseating lines that we are destined to have to bear.
