I Was Wrong

Even though there are some elections still to be decided, it's clear that I was wrong about Tuesday's election. I predicted Barack Obama would receive 378 electoral votes. Right now he's only got 364. If he picks up Missouri's still undecided 11 electoral votes, he'll only have 375.

I also predicted that Democrats would pick up 29 House seats and they only picked up 17. Democrats will not achieve the 60 seat threshold needed for a filibuster proof Senate, gaining only 6 seats. Even if Al Franken pulls out a come from behind victory in the Minnesota Senate recount, I still won't get to 60.

No one can say I don't admit when I'm wrong.
