6. Bradley Effect -
Schmadley Effect. That nonsense may now be consigned to myths.

Well VA was awfully close. The polls predicted a bigger lead. (n/t)

But hey! A win is a win. And I think we overperformed in the blue states.

16. Nope, polls were dead on in VA

Obama won VA by 4 points, very close to what the latest polls predicted.

13. The conservative paper in my town ran the famous "Dewey defeats Truman" photo
on page 1 today, along with a story about how easy it is for polls to be wrong.

17. On NPR the other day, it was observed that the myth of the Bradley effect...
...was fabricated by some California pollster who called the race wrong and needed to come up with a story to cover his ass. A couple of top campaign officials on both sides of that election were interviewed, and both men acknowledged that there simply was no such effect. If there was a primary reason for Bradley's unanticipated loss, it was that the pro-gun voter turn out in the rural areas of California was much higher than expected.
