First whole states close in 12 minutes.

[can we win without pennsylvania?]

Bush did it twice.

[Islander7]

I’m feeling sick!

[GiveEmDubya]

The good news is that Obama’s margin in Florida has narrowed considerably. It was about 350K, now less than 140K with about 60% of the state to go.

[Right_in_Virginia]

Unions households went with osama big in the penn election.

Smart move. I'm sure their union has a long and substantial unemployment benefit.

[Alas Babylon!]

Relax! They’ve called it on the interactive map. It is REALLY hosed up though, as it keeps jumping back in forth from an earlier time.

Anyway, Alabama stays RED. You know this, of course. Even Booby Bright has to run as one of us.

[Round 9]

Yes. Just keep all 2004 Bush states except N.M. and Iowa.

[bolobaby]

I’m going to give serious thought to quitting my job after Obama takes office. I work hard - REALLY hard. Ridiculously hard.

I make good money, but I can’t see working this hard for less.

Atlas needs to shrug.

IN will turn Blue for the first time since 1964. MO is lost. NC is lost. FL is lost. CO is lost. NM is lost and NV is lost. That's its folks. Barack Hussein Obama has been elected the 44th President.

[tioga]

blame the CAFETERIA Catholics.....

[jer33 3]

We’re in the bible belt and many people have been praying fervently and will continue.

[Norman Bates]

Our back is against the wall with that PA call. I still think we can win! I am most concerned about NC right now.

[angcat]

In Luzerne County they have no pride. All they care about is the local bars and dart tournaments.

[TheRiverNile]

You are welcome. I can’t believe some long time Freepers are buying into this absolute manure with 1% reporting & exit poll nonsense. This whole thread is an embarassment to the Free Republic. We either have close Obama supporters in here or people who are completely ignorant of what history has taught us. By the way, McCain just filed a formal objection to the networks' calling of Pennsylvania.

[cherry]

Mac still wins if he loses Iowa and New Mexico...as far as I know, most polls are still open, most have JUST closed, and we only need our states minus Iowa and New Mexico to win....

never have seen such panty waste in all my years...

[modest proposal]

yay alabama/georgia the south will rise again!

[Shortstop7]

I will never understand how Pennsylvania could vote for Obama.

Of course, there is still hope....

[anniegetyourgun]

and medical insurance...

[waxer1]

It will be more than four years. Every branch of govt will be controlled by the socialists. This great country after tonight if Obama wins, will no longer be a republic.

[bluerose]

Feeney lost FL

[Phoenix11]

McCain WILL win GA, Saxby WILL win re-election. Take that to to a non-bailed out bank! :) Co-sign.
