So you're telling me Obama didn't need Florida, Ohio, or Virginia (where he finished up +1, +3, +4), since he was up more than five percentage points in each of the plethora of blue states that got him to 270 without any of those three. So short of a revelation he'd tried same-sex cannibalism in college he was always a shoe-in and I lost a lot of precious sleep over nothing. Fucking pollsters.

I was worried that I wasn't worried enough. Because I wasn't worried. But that lack of worry, made me worry. For a while even the campaigns weren't trying very hard. Like it was all an elaborate long con to steal advertising money.

Sam Wang and Nate Silver were always near certain Obama would win. I was afraid that their analyses were wrong. But they weren't.
