I voted at 8am. I have never noticed so many blacks voting before (up here in Minnesota) in my not so black neighborhood. Maybe they were there and I just never noticed. Today I noticed and I smiled.

Aggregate polls say nothing in terms of statistics (I can't say that they are insignificant because that has another meaning in statistics). Kind of like an average of averages. It's a nice number to talk about but it doesn't mean any thing statistically. Also kind of like talking to a philosopher/astrophysicists who pointed out to me the meaningless of pondering what is outside of the universe. If the universe includes everything then nothing can be outside of it (actually it would be literally nothing that is outside of it, not that you can measure nothing).

Aggregates meaningless, from an Obama supporter.

Did anyone hear the interview on NPR with an Indiana democratic party member who answered a question about the "Bradley Effect" by raising the possibility of a "reverse Bradley Effect" i.e. people saying they are going to vote for McCain (the white guy) when asked about who they will vote for because they don't want to be seen as "liberal" while they actually are going to vote for Obama (the Black guy)? He said he wouldn't be surprised if a lot of Hoosiers who tell each other they are voting McCain end up pulling the lever for Obama when out of sight of friends and family in the voting booth (I paraphrase).

For crying out loud, is that the best you can do is send a "strongly worded letter?" You might as well spit in the wind and not expect to get hit!
