CNN has called PA and NH to Obama

Talk radio is stating that McCain is very angry that Fox called PA to Obama so early. Have any of you heard that?

Jemison

On Fox the electoral votes at 9pm EST are:
Obama 183
McCain 81

On CNN the electoral votes at 9pm EST are:
Obama 174
McCain 49

I know some states are are given, but is it really a good idea for these media outlets to call a state based on exit polls with only a small percentage of votes coming in?

I vaguely remember them doing this once before & they ended up being wrong.

Back in 1976 the media called the election for Jimmy Carter while the voting was still going on in the west, and that ticked a lot of people off. They asked why should they bother voting if the results are in before they can even make it to the polls.

The media stopped calling it after that until all voting had been done.

Until this election.

It looks like they're trying to influence the vote by calling it for Obama before the voting is done. Why should the folks on the west coast go to the trouble of going out and voting for McCain if the media has already declared Obama the winner.

IT'S A CONSPIRACY I TELL YA!!!!

From the looks of it, this is about to go south in a hurry. I think McCain is going to lose Virginia and Florida. He may not hang onto that lead in Indiana, either.

mccain looks to win Va in m y opinion...
but stop complaining that pa was called.....
IT WAS CALLED AFTER PA POLLS CLOSED in PA



Pa goes obama ,big roadblock for mccain

Fox News just called Ohio to Obama!! It looks like a landslide IMO

The polls in Indianapolis, Indiana were ordered to stay open an extra
two hours tonight due to voting problems. Also, Gary Indiana, which
is 90% African American is holding out reporting results for some
reason, according to the local news.

CNN just announced that from early projections it appears that Ohio is going to go to Obama. Mccain has lost PA and OH, the two most important swing states.

Looks like the old guy is done for. I know it isnt over yet but these were must wins for Mccain, they are now saying that he would have to pull off a miracle in a projected blue state or two in order to have a chance.

Things arent looking good.

MSNBC:

Calls Louisiana for McCain

done. its over. ohio to obama. the politics of fear did not work

A republican has never won a election without Ohio. Looks like Obama is going to pull off:

-Penn
-NC
-Ohio
-Florida

Most of the key states,

I am handing this one to Obama.

Have fun with our first Black President and pray that we prosper.
