Why is it we worry so much? Is there some sort of cathartic value to embracing our worst fears, but then have everything turn out just fine? Althought the map for some reason has a key that is hard to read, it's the same old electoral college map (updated by the 2010 census), that we are all so used to. And guess what it tells us? The Republicans are a lock in 24 states, the Democrats in 20. This gives the Dems a lead of 246 electoral votes to the Republicans 200 with 6 states as tossups (our very own Colorado among them) and 270 votes needed to win. Bear in mind that Obama won all of these swing states in the last election, and only needs one big one. He wins Florida, it's over. He wins Ohio and Virginia both, it's over. Etc. So please stop freaking out, America. It is extrememly unlikely (barring extraordinary events) that you will have a president that doesn't believe in evolution next fall.
