I really dislike most of the people on MSNBC. Rachel Maddow's okay.

If you're hungry, Papa John's is offering a large pizza, 3 toppings for $11.04 tonight only. Perfect for an election party like ours!

Damn I wish they had Papa John's around here. That was almost a major food group in college.

I drove by one of the biggest polling stations in my neighborhood and two different crowds were on opposite sides of the streets. People were honking and holding up their signs with pride. No matter who you vote for, it's a great time to be an American and exercise your God-given right of free choice.

Sorry that was Vermont not NH.

 

[dazzlingamy]

so, what time do you expect to know Obama has won? I've got to go out to the shops for a few hours, but I don't want to miss anything *attached to CNN*
If he wins Ohio and North Carolina is it all over for McCain or do we need to wait till later?
I STILL shake my head at the THOUSANDS who have voted red. YUCK.

You missed the part where they "beamed" someone into the studio by hologram. Any excuse to use technology, CNN...

Just keep Anderson on the screen 70% of the time and I'll be happy.

 

[ladywithspinninghead]

I'm nervous as heck, I can't imagine how you Americans are feeling!

I was so embarrassed after the 2004 election. Don't blame me - I voted for Kerry.
