52-48 Where have I heard that spread before.....?

Allahpundit is liveblogging it over at Hot Air, with a surprisingly low Karate Kid reference level.

As of 10:08, it's 52-48 with 80% of precincts in. I wonder which towns are still out.

UPDATE: Built in excuse generator----DIEBOLD! OHIO! ROVE! AGGH! Imagine that, pre-voted voting machines in New Haven.

UPDATE: If this parameter holds, the general election should prove to be interesting. 52-48--8K votes as of right now---means Joe can run against the nutroots and win with the independents and what passes for Republican in CT (sorry Gary). 56-44, that was Senior Distinguished Lecturer in American Politics at Eastern in Willimantic time.

Hillary! ?

No real impact. I guess in this evil bearded Spock parallel universe we inhabit the Loyalists beat the fascists after all...

UPDATE: You can almost hear the ER "flat line beep" for this chart:

UPDATE: Lieberman concedes, 10K vote margin, 4%. Lieberman lives to fight another day; Nutroots come under the crosshairs of Richard Bluementhal and the CT AG's office for hacking; McKinney toast.

Sounds like a three-fer for me.
