Best Case Scenario
| Wednesday, October 29th, 2008 | --Sean |
I hadn't checked out the Yahoo! News Political Dashboard for quite some time, fairly content in my assumption that the electoral landslide for my preferred candidate was all but guaranteed. I'm almost wishing that I hadn't given it another go. The Dashboard now has a nifty "Create Your Scenario" option that puts you in control of the electoral college, flipping states left and right between, er, Left and Right. Suddenly, anything can happen! What if California takes a cue from Arnie and decides that Republican governors (and Senators) aren't a bad idea afterwards? What if New England rings in their Fall festivities by turning red along with the trees? What if Newt Gingrich is right and, like, every single state goes against all current polling data and votes for McCain? (okay, seriously, Gingrich, what the heck) The possibilities are endless and it's up to you to explore 'em. Just be sure to get out on Nov. 4th and do the one thing that'll really affect the outcome of the election: vote!
