I'm going to be on a plane from 5:15 EST to 8:35 PST, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to be watching CNN the whole time.
My fantasy is that they will have called it for Obama by the time we land, but I'm pretty sure that won't happen.
Can we maybe vote on the whole murdering people issue?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
My first thought this morning was, "I hope America doesn't make Laura cry today."
I'm a big old pile of mush today. Got misty listening to the report about Obama's grandmother. I expect tears to flow before the call tonight.
But I forgot about tears of joy and relief. Also, a few subtle, good humored fist pumps of "I told you so!" in the direction of her good friends and neighbors who've been giving her the needle for her liberal ways.
I am hoping that Nate Silver is freaking awesome at his job.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I am hoping that Nate Silver is freaking awesome at his job.
Since everyone who does that job has been coming to pretty much the same conclusions, I'm hopeful. On the other hand, none of them is as awesome as Nate at being my secret internet boyfriend.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Nate's final projection on the Senate is 57 for the Dems. That's plenty good for me.
Giddyup, PA, OH, FL, VA and CO! Make it happen, bay-bee!
JZ's already out the door to take Matilda with her to the voting booth.

Oh & there was a cameraman from one of the stations filming the lines the first half hour.

Safe travels today, Perkins. I hope we have a president by the time you land, too. (Michelle says "Hi")

Those pups have really grown. They're really looking like Shibas now and not generic balls of fluff.
