Community College

If you are a dedicated, multi-tasking politics nerd like me, you might want to spend some of your free time (come on, you have some free time, conceited) with the new Electoral College "Political Scoreboard" created by Markos over at Daily Kos. You can access it here: Daily Kos Political Scoreboard or here.

The Scoreboard's Race Calculator function allows you to mess around with different state result scenerios and to provide some context to the state polls you hear about. It also allows you to flip back two cycles to the elections of yore (or Gore) to see how certain candidates performed in certain states (my favorite).

It's vaguely intellectual, right? Maybe for those bored moments before giving in to Gawker.com.
