No guessing needed now… Our headline in the Caymanian Compass is a page one editorial: [EDITORIAL – Let the election campaign begin (not a typo)](https://www.caymancompass.com/2016/11/08/editorial-let-the-election-campaign-begin-not-a-typo/) It is just the start of our election season which runs about six months. Any other entertaining real headlines out there? ---

[del]The Chicago Sun-Times just says “Overtime” as if the election is not over. Nice work, assholes…[/del] Was saying Overtime until I just saw an updated cover. The [New York Post](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CwzlxmpWgAAnEnE.jpg) doesn’t have anything funny this time, but damnit, it’s still a surpise win to everyone. This is probably the biggest upset win for New York City since Super Bowl XLII. The Le Journal de Montreal, in Canada, has a headline that says: OH MY GOD! Really. El Grafico, in Mexico has the best cover, though. ---

It’s funny and sad that I started this thread four days before the election as a humorous romp–never imagining that Trump could possibly be elected. And now, as so often is the case, truth is stranger than fiction. Now we have actual headlines that we can muse about. But it’s not fun anymore. Someone earlier suggested\*\*\* “WTF”\*\*\* as a headline. At least one paper (in Sydney I think) actually went with that. I’m hoping to find that somebody actually ran the _ **"Wait, What?"** _ that I suggested in my first post in this thread. Still my favorite, but without any of the humor it possessed before.
