It’s finally here. The big day.

I voted this morning for Bob Barr, AKA “None of the Above, With a Mustache”. Living in a solidly blue state, I have the freedom of voting my conscience, because McCain has no chance in New Jersey, and if he did he would be winning everywhere else and so not need my vote anyway.

My final prediction is going to be… McCain. I’m pretty sure he’s going to win, for a lot of reasons, most of which are summed up in this terrific blog post. It’s very long, and that site may drop from the traffic today. This is another good article explaining why the polls and Obama’s strategy to demoralize his opposition will backfire.

I have publicly predicted this on Facebook, which is causing no end of consternation among my Obama loving friends. I’m either going to be eating crow or wildly triumphant tomorrow.

Keep an eye on Pennsylvania, it will tell the tale. The exit polls will be as wrong as the pre-election polling though, so don’t believe anything until we see a real result.
