DOUBLE DIGITS!!
According to the Washington Post, Obama leads in Virginia by double digits. The polls have Obama at 51% and McCain at 39%.
538 has the electoral votes at 339.7 for Obama and 198.7 for McCain.
Wapo also has Obama leading in New Hampshire and Ohio.
Not to get too excited, but...yay!
AND -- Obama is being aggressive in Nebraska. Only Nebraska and Maine divide their electoral votes by each district - not a winner takes all like most states. So, Obama has ramped up his field office in Omaha (the most Democratic district) in hopes of peeling off 1 electoral vote. I love it! Every little bit helps.

Misses Beckham
My friends used to call me Mrs. Beckham (they even had a t-shirt made for one of my birthdays) due to my non-so-long-ago obsession with his fineness.
Recent events have me thinking they misspelled it. Last Thursday I threw myself a little birthday party and chose to miss a work event and afterparty on the same night. I just found out that at said afterparty was the one and only...David Beckham. (See for yourself on page 30 of People Magazine.)
I'm sure he was there just waiting to wish me a Happy Birthday. Sorry I missed you Becks.

McCain Exits Michigan
That is the headline at ProgressIllinois.com this afternoon.
Josh Kalven reports that McCain is pulling all staff out of Michigan and sending them to other swing states.
That's (potentially) 17 electoral votes!!
