CNN's holograms are trippy...can anderson actually see it there, or does it just show up on a screen as a graphical layer?

Anyone else watching fox? they are seriously backtracking on every attack they have pushed for months. They keep going on about how centrist Obama is going to be, or how conservative he'll be by cutting taxes, etc.

So, is it safe to say that the majority of the polls were very wrong about Georgia and Virginia? Didn't most have Virgina as a solid win for Obama?
Not Georgia, polls always showed him substantially behind in Georgia. But GAF dared to hope. For Virginia, what seems to have happened is that a lot of the West VA undecided voters broke super heavily for McCain. It still looks like Obama's going to win, though, because he had a reasonably comfortable lead.

This is why you shoulda gone to Tulane or LSU or something. Aren't you from New Orleans?

Congratulations to all the Obama supporters.

The dems aren't my party, but I will be rooting for him to succeed.

Yeah, looks like polls overstated Obama's support there. Georgia won't be as close as they thought, and Virginia will be closer than people thought.

All night, I've heard about this hologram stuff and how awesome it is, but I keep missing it. This time, I caught it, and it just looks...fake to me. Green-screened, or something like that.

Maybe the actual tech will amaze me, but it looks pretty silly to me in action.

Maddow: "I think McCain deserves some credit for his own loss tonight."
 
Q: not to sound like a chicken little here, but what are the chances of projections being wrong. Ohio is slowly becoming a closer race again, with less than half of the votes counted.


Someone slap me for having this idea.

I grew-up in Louisiana, went to college in Mississippi.. the racism is still all too common. Even though I have some conservative convictions, I would never want to be associated with that party, especially when it's power center is based here in the South. To me, personally, it's disgusting.
