Why is everyone so certain that their own guy will win? BBC had a conservative Brit on who wouldn't entertain the idea that Obama might win.

@PhilosophyExp Interesting. To influence voters in some way? Surely the best strategy is to present it to your supporters as a dead-heat.
@NotungSchwert Doesn't work that way because the government isn't elected by popular vote. At a constituency level, yes, you emphasize...1/2

@PhilosophyExp Yep, that makes sense. -
@NotungSchwert It's interesting, though. You mustn't appear too confident. Labour fucked up in 1992 coz of a triiumphamt rally in Sheffield. -
@PhilosophyExp Yes, don't remember it but it was mentioned in a documentary I saw. Strange something like that had such a big effect. -
@NotungSchwert Actually, likely it didn't. It's hard to say. "Labour's tax bombshell" probably more significant. http://bit.ly/XigHqw
