Just an FYI, folks — MoJoBlog and Kevin Drum will have coverage of the election all day and all night. We know we’re not replacing CNN, but visit us for analysis, under-the-radar stories, and our typical panache.

For now, we’ve got four stories that went up late yesterday: Kevin Drum’s “The Great Persuader,” about the challenges Obama will face should he win; my “Election Day Arrives: Should Obama Supporters Worry?” about whether the supposed tightening in the polls should give anyone pause; Laura Rozen’s “Getting Ready for President McBama,” about a Congressional honcho who is ready to work intelligence in a McCain or Obama administration; and Adele M. Stan’s “Howard Phillips’ World,” about the Constitution Party candidate who could provide inspiration for the GOP.

Hope to see a lot of you over the next, oh, 17 hours.

“Lying.” “Disgusting.” “Scum.” “Slime.” “Corrupt.” “Enemy of the people.” Donald Trump has always made clear what he thinks of journalists. And it’s plain now that his administration intends to do everything it can to stop journalists from reporting things they don’t like—which is most things that are true.

No one gets to tell Mother Jones what to publish or not publish, because no one owns our fiercely independent newsroom. But that also means we need to directly raise the resources it takes to keep our journalism alive. There’s only one way for that to happen, and it’s readers like you stepping up. Please help with a donation today if you can—even a few bucks will make a real difference. A monthly gift would be incredible.
