Pretty much. I don't think any election has been that one sided. Other sites I've seen with similar numbers are calling states that are barely leaning left for Obama, and I would bet that a few of them are within the margin of error but are still being called. I'm just a cynic like that.
Like I have said, these numbers are mostly "interesting". It would be interesting if an objective team of political scientists and mathematicians were to analyze the process.
Oh, and the most presidential elections in my lifetime have been very one sided.
I don't think so. They're very clear about their methods and sources. You can argue with their models (heh) but at least there's no question about what they are. Really, I should have said "election statistical modeling porn", which would have been funnier anyway. :)
FWIW, their spread is pretty close to what a few other sites are showing. I wouldn't mind seeing a confidence interval, though.
