Dick Morris told us this is the first time in history an incumbent president's margin shrunk over the challenger and he still won the presidency.

Obama led by 7 points in 2008 and 1 point in 2012. First time in the history of elections for president this happened and the incumbent didn't lose.

For an incumbent's margins to shrink that much, he is not well liked. That has always in the past meant defeat.

But real clear politics has overplayed its hand, I think. How could they possibly know what percentage of whites, blacks, hispanics, and asians voted and for whom they voted? Where did they get that information? Nobody asked my race when I voted. And, my vote is private.

I guess when you are writing the story, you can write the ending as well.
