IMO, Obama was toast when he said that determining when life begins is above his pay grade. Now we are just beating a dead horse. (Not that it isn’t fun, though.)

I wish I had your confidence - and that it was justified. Yes, he proved that the White House is above his pay grade and will be for many years, but that may not worry voters who see a chance for 'hope' and 'change'.

Obama is not yet toast. It's only his ideas that are half-baked. This election is not over until all the votes are counted, the pregnant and dimpled chads evaluated, and the appeals routed through the state and federal courts to determine whether we can change the rules after the election to fix an outcome that could only have come from cheating - a charge proven by the Republicans getting more votes that are counted.

If you don't believe it's not over, then for reference, I would suggest reviewing Glenn Close's actions near the end of "Fatal Attraction". Michael Douglas finally subdues her, we see the body under water in the tub, and ...

If you don't believe it's not over, then for reference, I would suggest reviewing the hero's victory over Jason near the end of any of the "Friday the 13th" movies ...

If you don't believe it's not over, then for reference, I would suggest any other suspense or horror movie, or some from another genre. We all know that moment of relief in a movie when we realize that continuing to worry about Obama, Freddy Kruger, Jason I-VI, Glenn Close, Clinton I, the Bride of Clinton, Clinton III (in 20 years), the Mummy, Dracula, or Dr. Evil is simply "beating a dead horse" ... and we know what is sure to follow a moment after that sense of relief.

I won't believe that we're safe until Obama's concession speech - if we get that lucky - or the inauguration.
