So have you made contingency plans in case the unthinkable happens and
Obama sweeps 49 states and we end up with 70 senators?

I'm not kiddin'--those high turnouts (locally they're saying 80% or something) mean all the nontraditional voters are coming out: kids, poor people, minorities etc.--and most nontraditional voters are gonna be voting Obama.

2. I love your optimism.
It's not going to happen but I love the thought.

On the other hand, 390+ EVs and 60 senators wouldn't be impossible to contemplate..... :D

3. That would be approaching all-night drunken orgy territory
And trust me when I say that NOBODY wants to see me in an all-night drunken orgy.

11. I honestly think it won't hit me until he gives his victory speech.
I know on one level BUT I don't believe it on another.

12. I have a good friend in Canada.
