I like to relate the election to a prize fight. If you've ever watched a televised boxing match, you likely know that how you think the fight is going is influenced to some extent by what the blow by blow ringside announcers are saying. Watch a fight without announcers (i.e. the sound off) and your impression can be markedly different than what you thought while watching and listening to the announcers. More to the point, the announcers are often wrong, and their opinions don't match what the fight judges decide.
My point is that we don't really know for sure what is happening in this election cycle, and we should just keep fighting until the final decision is handed down. There are many out there, in the media and political operatives, who have a vested interest in depressing you, and influencing your opinion about how things are going. Don't let them influence the way you think. Keep fighting the good fight.
Oops! I should have caught the date. I guess these sites put up stale stories to catch sleepy people like me.
