Huh. Somewhere I read that if Obama wins PA, it's pretty much over for McCain. Was that from fivethirtyeight?
MSNBC was also saying the same thing just a minute ago.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Oh, and something cool: WTMD (local music public radio) is hosting a simulcast party for deaf & hard of hearing. [link] They (well, NPR )are close-captioning NPR's election night coverage.
OMG, that CNN map is lighting up like a Xmas tree!
MSNBC.com has Ohio with 66% for Obama.
Oh, man.
t edit CNN.com has Ohio at 70% for Obama.
Holy shit.
Chris Matthews just said that Palin scared "the bejeezus" out of pro-choice PA women.
The NYT thing is useless - they're still showing McCain up 8 to 3 in the electoral college....
I dunno. If it turns into a total blowout for Obama, then I think he would have won without the financial collapse.
I think he still would've won; I reckon his jump in the polls was due to both the financial collapse and his steady debate performance (i.e. the electorate already liked him better, but they needed to trust him too). But it would've been closer, certainly; maybe another single-state margin, like the last two.
Favorite quote so far from MSNBC.
"You can see it geographically in Pennsylvania in counties like Montogomery County a highly educated county where Sarah Palin just didn't work. Sarah Palin scared the bejesus of a lot of pro-choice women in that state—is that all right to say 'the bejesus'?"
ETA-- heh-- x-post with Dana!

Now you're just fucking with me....

Only during elections. "For one night only - the bejesus!"
