David Axelrod's Mustache Hangs in Election's Balance

Politicians on both sides have told us this is the most important election in a generation. Way more important than the one four years ago that was the most important one in a generation.

I didn't think the stakes could get any higher than "most important," but they just did: David Axelrod and Joe Scarborough have placed a facial-hair related bet on the election…

What happens if Obama only loses half the states? Will David Axelrod only shave off half his mustache and comb the rest over the bald spot?
