Looks like Nate Silver was pretty much dead on.

Also, apparently Romney literally did not bother to prepare a concession speech. Interesting. All rhetoric aside, I'm wondering what went wrong there that his campaign was that unprepared.

In irrelevant but election-related news, Puerto Rico voted for US statehood, which I think is a good thing. Washington and Colorado legalized marijuana, which I'm mixed on, but at least it'll be a good testbed for the idea. Gay marriage was legalized in Maryland and Maine, which is certainly a good thing.

EDIT: more details.

Seeing as the stock market has rallied 70% in his four years it wouldn't be out of the question. :P
Not to say I'm in complete agreement with his economic policies but they have stove off a much worse possibility than the relatively stagnant growth we've seen.
