Any takers for an election night betting game, sans money?

Basically there are five tiers: (1) 13 POTUS Swing States; (2) 13 Senate Races; (3) 10 House Races; (4) 3 Gubernatorial Races; and (5) 5 ballot measures.

You pick the winner and the margin of victory.  Each correct guess in tier 1 yields 5 points, tier 2 four points, etc., etc.  The person with the highest point total is the winner.  Ties are broken by the person with the highest number of correctly picked winners with the MoV.

Yes, I know this is exceedingly boring and nerdy.  But if you plan on watching the election returns, it's just another added way to watch and participate, rather than throwing things at televisions when the returns don't go your way (or your candidate's party hasn't stolen enough votes from electronic machines or committed enough in-person voter fraud).

PM me if you want the Word document I prepared.

Now I will add a comment section to the bottom of the Word doc when I get home.
This is so bad, I'd root for the Orioles over this fucking team, but I can't. Because they're a fucking drug and you can't kick it and they'll never win anything and they'll always suck, but it'll always be sunny at Wrigley and there will be tits and ivy and an old scoreboard and fucking Chads.

Dick Morris, known food aficianado, two days ago:
QuoteOnce everyone discovers that the emperor has no clothes (or that Obama has no argument after the negative ads stopped working), the vote shift could be of historic proportions.

An article entitled Here comes the landslide


Dick Morris, known bloviator, today:
QuoteWith that caution in mind, a danger signal comes from the latest Rasmussen Poll reflecting a two point gain for Obama. Whereas before the storm, Rasmussen showed Romney two ahead, he now has the race tied at 48-48. That is troublesome.  And, in Pennsylvania, Romney led on Wednesday night by two points but on Thursday night's polling, he was tied. We have also seem slippage for Romney in Michigan.  More troubling, Rasmussen shows a two point gain for Obama in job approval rising from 48% to 50% in the current poll.

I think airport windsocks have better consistency.
