What Massachusetts Means

Friedersdorf takes a shovel to the bullshit:

It is particularly amusing to see folks call the outcome stunning in one breath and aver in the next that they can explain why it happened mere hours after the fact, without any new data save the result. This is especially grating when it’s so obvious that the election turned on all the issues that were most important to me, that the outcome so clearly vindicates my world view, and that the wisest course in light of the results is for both parties to do exactly what I’ve been advocating for all along.

Well, yes. But that's only human, isn't it? And without solid exit polls, there is no objective source.
