The Choose or Lose 2008 Street Team citizen journalist for New York, Sara Benincasa, takes you deep within the recesses of her brain. Expect magic. And political insight.
This morning, all the left-leaning pundits on MSNBC are talking about how Obama's got it locked down. However, when speaking to twentysomething New York voters, I've detected both a joyful excitement about Obama and a grinding anxiety about the following possibilities:
1.) McCain wins, and young liberals feel the same disappointment and disbelief they did when Bush was re-elected in 2004.
2.) Voting irregularities lead to the push-pull situation we saw in 2000.
Regardless, I think it's waaaaay too early to call a post-mortem. I know it's tempting, but I think it's dangerous to do so.
