"Birth of the Cool" is an album that collects the twelve sides recorded by the Miles Davis nonet (featuring Gerry Mulligan, Lee Konitz and others) for Capitol Records in 1949 and 1950. The music is considered seminal. This blog is dedicated to that spirit -- keeping things "cool" by blog birthing. If you've got somethin' cool to share, blow on.

A Final Word
Well, here it is, the eve of the election. I will be glued to the tube all day tomorrow. The Huffington Post forecast and the Princeton group forecast both predict a Clinton win in the 98-99 percentile. They both discount Nate Silver's forecast for reasons they explain in detail, but even Silver is forecasting a 65 percent edge for Clinton. My main worry at this point is liberal protest votes for minor or write-in candidates, or liberal protest by way of sitting out the vote entirely. This should not happen for a lot of reasons, all of which are well-put in the following article. Mary Elizabeth Williams hits it right on the head. So wise up Susan Sarandon!
