FOX just said that McMahon spent $100 million over her two losing campaigns.
a big woot!! to eliz. warren. way to show those senators!
“just look at her” indeed! yep, scott, just look at her in your old office!
CNN just called Indiana for Joe Donnelly. I love it. That’s what these Tea Party assholes get for kicking out a sane Republican like Dick Luger.
Just wait until some number-cruncher sits down and figures out how much all this 1%er spending has increased the economy and how much it lowered the unemployment rate in the last few months of the campaign. I bet there will be some puckered up faces when they realize that they collectively knocked the unemployment rate below 8%.
CNN Website now has Ohio at:
53% Obama
46% Romney
With 35% of vote counted.
This would seem to be a good sign so far. I have no idea which areas have been counted first though, and which are still to come.
New Hampshire for Obama - New England sweep for the Prez.
NBC has called New Hampshire for Obama!
The first true swing state has been called. NH goes to Obama.
CNN being much more conservative on the calls than FOX or NBC. Interesting…
I haven’t watched any American news channels in ages, so maybe I’m late to the game here but are the Fox anchors actually referring to the Romney campaign as “us”?
The Senate’s looking pretty good. If we can keep McCaskill and Tester and get Kaine in I’ll be feeling fine.
They’re still smarting from calling Florida early in 2000.
Now would a “fair and balanced” news group say something like that?
/sarcasm
I love his opinion that basically separates “American” voters from people of color AND women. Very nice.
Nate Silver suggests it looks good:
Flipping back and forth, Fox just called the MA senate race for Warren. That’s quite a coup!
Yeah without looking county by county it’s difficult to say. For example Romney is up by 4 in VA but looking at it county by county I can tell you it’s looking highly unlikely he will win.
Intrade is steady at 94%. I think there is probably enough data to call the race but the networks will take their time. However I think Obama has won.
Obama has quite a lead in Ohio, though they are not calling it yet. It looks pretty good for the President.
I think it is fascinating how variable the results can be from region to region. Romney is taking some states by big margins, and vice-versa. Some of it of course is that Obama doesn’t visit places like Texas while Romney doesn’t visit places like California, but still, I wish I had tons of time to explore these regional discrepancies.
ETA: I think I might just switch to Fox for laughs
That’s what Og intended.
My map shows that if Obama wins NH, IA, CO, and NV then the results of Ohio and Florida doesn’t matter; it would be nice to be able to go to bed without worrying about the OH and FL recounts.
