I hope you are right my man - I HOPE!

Everyone to CNN now I think they are ready to call the race to Obama they are in commercials right now!!

Ohio For Obama. ABC just said that no President has ever been elected
unless he carried Ohio. I don't know why that is the case, but it's good
news.

Anyone knows I've been pretty anti-US on ATS as anyone else of late.

But I must say... Congratulations. I would never have known the US could ever elect a black president, and you've seemingly done it.

Good work guys, I really hope your country can move on from 8 years of Bush.

Well, as it stands as of the time of this post, Obama has 175 Electoral votes compared to 76 for McCain. (5 more to go for Obama to official cinch the election.

Florida and California will put Obama in the White House.

As I said in chat, the we'll know is Obama has won within the hour.

Make that 200 electoral votes for Obama

(source:FOXNews)

I meant to put down Barack Obama needs 95 more electoral college votes to cinch the election.

At the polling place earlier this week I was the only African American
in the long line. My Chicago suburb is 90% White and Republican.
The stares I got during the 50 minutes in line gave me the creeps!
But I was so proud to cast my vote for President-Elect Obama...and
then run the heck out of there..LOL.

I believe we have won!!!

Now if we can pull out the senate!

Congrats to ALL!!!

Louisiana to McCain according to MSNBC

Ohio is big man!!! - Also McCain not doing too well in Florida, this could be over soon & Obama takes it.

But then again, maybe not, anything could happen......... even a miracle for McCain.


Who knows, but goddamn, I'm happy at the moment

The senate is taken according to the BBC.

NM just called by MSNBC, Fox called earlier.

The Beatles song comes to mind, (sing along now) "You've got to admit its getting better, its getting better all the time"

MSNBC Projections:

Obama: 200

Mccain: 90

Just trying to keep it updated.

To further illustrate how goofy CNN is, they have McCain ahead by over
10 percentage points in New Mexico!

Roll mouse over NM on map at: www.cnn.com...

John Stewart, and Steven Colbert will do a better job in about 20 min.

I thought for sure that Obama would carry Texas, but that big state has
been awarded to McCain. The Bush family must still be popular there.
At least George W. can retire in Texas knowing that they still love him.
