Obama outperforms

Remember all the talk about how Obama would be a weak general election candidate? How he couldn't win the big states? How is hopes of expanding the universe of states where a Democrat could compete was naive?

Wrong! Not only did he win all the big states except Texas, he outperformed Kerry in nearly every demographic.

And it appears that he may have one one electoral vote in Nebraska, one of only two states that split their votes by congressional district. That's one for the record books. That Nebraska vote would bring the race to 365 Obama, 173 McCain. Obama's popular vote margin is now 53%-46%.
