I, like many, are worried.  I have hope, but I’m truly fearful of an Obama presidency and what it will do for the country in which my daughter will learn about the world. 

The polls released everyday show an almost insurmountable lead.  Websites with electoral map predictions brought smiles to my face during the convention, but now only prove so depressing I don’t visit them anymore.  Even Mr. Rove’s site. 

However, this morning I read a couple of great articles on why the polls are misleading.  Now, I’ve taken statistics and I understand how numbers can be manipulated, but I thought many of the numbers were based on facts, such as the number of Democrats that have registered to vote (which is why the polls are skewed to have a bigger sample of Democrats).  However, these two articles have a better, more in depth analysis of the numbers behind the polls, and I’m feeling a little more optomistic after reading them.

P.S. Read the main Hillbuzz page.  There are many posts on the polls that are meant to help life the spirits of “Eeyores.”
