With less than a week to go...

...before the election (won't you be glad when this is over?), President Obama is comfortably ahead of Governor Romney on both Intrade and FiveThirtyEight, the two sites I check daily (hourly?). In fact, Romney, to my knowledge, has never led the president on either one. Never.

This morning, just to give you an update, the president is leading in five of the nine swing states on Intrade: Iowa, Nevada, New Hampshire, Wisconsin, and -- most importantly -- Ohio. Romney is leading in Florida and North Carolina. (Colorado and Virginia are essentially a push.) But even if you throw those last two in the Republican's column the president still wins.

Now get this darn thing over with, will you?
