Given the ever-tightening races between McCain and Obama, much has been said that McCain might pull an upset, no differently from that iconic news photo where Harry Truman gloats over one prominent newspaper's hasty front page headliner, "Dewey Defeats Truman?"

That's what would make it an upset. I think a lot of folks are not taking into account all the sexism that has been thrown at 2 female candidates this election cycle. Women make up 51 percent of the population. Very well, could be an upset.

I don't know what will happen this time, but a paper declaring Senator Obama's victory was printed - last week.
http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/10/27/obama-wins-newspaper-declares/
quote:
SANTA FE, New Mexico (CNN) – For The New Mexico Sun News it is either a major scoop or “Dewey Beats Truman” déjà vu 60 years later.
“Obama Wins!” is the headline of the edition on newsstands now, complete with “special collector’s edition” in red bold typeface.
