He called Barack Obama the Tampa Bay Rays...because of his status as an up-and-coming power house. So if the "up-and-coming power house" loses to the venerated, old school team from Boston, does that bode poorly for Mr. Obama?

@Audrey: Yeah, you're right. And since seattlest is a bastion of humor this is where I will do my internship in appreciating humor.

I am addicted to fivethirtyeight, but your comment is right. Why compare McCain to our beloved Pilots, when in reality his campaign compares more favorably to our current Mariners franchise, which, like the McCain campaign is run by inept, old white men who don't like it when gay people kiss.

Math is what's going to win this election. You can sleep through it if you want but that seems a little ignorant to me. Being innumerate is cool!
