I hadn't read any of their comments on that page -- just had the map in a tab since election night.

"Mostly failed to chalk up surprises"?! That text appears just above a very surprising number of blue hexagons with the heavy black border signifying "flipped"!

Even in the "toss-up" column, it shows 8 red to 18 blue. A toss-up means equal chance, just like a coin toss. Anything other than 13 - 13 in that column has to be a surprise.

Whoever wrote that has to be either RW or a worshipper at the alter of bothsiderism.
