Chuck Todd just said Obama won Dixville Notch, NH, which hasn't gone to a Dem. since 1968, and that

[jenmito]

"That's not the best omen for Democrats." Hmmm... I know what he meant, that it's not the best omen for the REPUBS., but still. Freudian slip?

[Secret_Society]

1. Listen to Chuck Todd closely

I've noticed that he tends to give stuff away with little comments like that. Now he's talkin about realignment.

[UnrepentantUnitarian]

2. It's just habit....they didn't have any Mason-Dixon polls to push.

[Ozma]

9. Does GE own Mason/Dixon polls? I wonder! why?

Does anyone know why they keep hyping them?

[GOPNotForMe]

3. I don't. What does that mean? nt

[jenmito]

19. He MEANT it's not a good omen for REPUBS. since Dixville Notch hasn't voted for

the Dem. in 40 years.

[stray cat]

4. isn't that good?

[trayfoot]

6. Yes - a GOOD omen for the Dems!

[Phoebe Loosinhouse]

5. I'm missing his logic.

Dixville Notch has voted Republican for the last 40 years and today they vote Democratic and he thinks that's BAD sign?

As far as being a prognosticator, obviously sometimes they were right and sometimes they were wrong.

[Renew Deal]

13. He's actually right

The last Dem to win was Humphrey. And we know how that turned out.

[JJ]

15. '68 was Hubert Humphrey

He won Dixville Notch, but lost the election.

[high density]

17. I think he misspoke and meant Republicans.

[jenmito]

20. That's my point. I think he MEANT to say it's not a good omen for REPUBS.

Freudian slip maybe?

[TheDonkey]

7. Last democrat to win was Hubert Humphrey I believe. Hump lost.

So that is the "omen" Todd is trying to pimp.

[Jennicut]

8. I think he meant Repubs not Dems

[kentuck]

10. That tells me...

although anecdotal, Republicans are going to vote for Obama in huge numbers never expected.

[Ozma]

14. Well NH residents are sometimes Republican but not that Stupid !!!

Just letting you know, NH is more blue than ever every year now since 2004.

[Bad Thoughts]

11. Maybe he's saying it's not a good indicator

Dixville-Notch isn't a belle weather for anything.

[jenmito]

21. Nah. I think he meant to say it's not a good omen for the REPUBS. n/t

[TomClash]

12. He means there are better omens to come nt

[4themind]

16. This is Great News!...For John McCain

man am I going to miss that line...

[Ganja Ninja]

18. Look, all day long these guy are going to be pushing this horse race.

They have to. They have to keep some suspense up for tonight. If they say it's all over with then nobody will watch them this evening.

[fadedrose]

22. Nixon won in '68 nt
