In case you are nervous...

I am beyond nervous. The oxygen supply in this room sometimes seems a little low.

I have sworn I will not turn on a TV prior to 7 pm est.
 
Beyond nervous. A good way to put it.

I bought a bottle of champagne earlier today, then thought OH GOD that might have just jinxed it!
(feeling entitled to some self-absorbed worry on a day such as this)

(a bit self-absorbed are we?)

I loved Larry David's piece about avoiding "jinxing" the results by not watching. I used to have those feelings when I was in grade school and was a big Cincinnati Reds fan.

Yeah, doesn't seem like the wrong time to worry.
 
Cmon! Whats to be nervous about? The polls cant change that drastically in the other direction in one day.

Can they?

PAGING DR. LOESBERG!

I need someone to explain that sentence structure...Thor? Jonathan? Brad? It just seems so disjointed in an utterly familiar way.

What we seem to have here is a widespread case of Mets Fan Syndrome, in which the unluckily afflicted, having in past years seen the ingenuity with which the subject of his or her interest manages to blow a seemingly insurmountable lead, can only think "What amazingly creative way to fuck things up are we coming up with this year?"

Thanks. Just keep me away from hard liquor until the opposition concedes. I had to call in sick the day after the last presidential election.

Imagine how those of us who were Red Sox fans in 1986 feel...

It is nice to live in a state where it feels like my vote makes a difference this year. Though I'm also not looking at any news source until 7.

We Phillies fans thank you, from the bottom of our hearts.

Are you calling me a Neiman-Marxist?

After the way 2004 went down, I'm looking for coverage with NO EXIT POLLS.
