What is this?
OK.
Things are getting louder at the National Affairs Desk Studio and Armory - Extended Mobile Unit. Talk of the welfare nation and funding and breeding... Excitement and Fear, still, going on into the night probably late as we wait for the Big States to close. When we bite our nails down to the bone through the tremblind muscle. 10 minutes: PA, OH, NJ... 6 minutes now.
Obama is outperforming Kerry across the board, but that's because he's a better candidate than Kerry. But now many of the expected states are being called by CNN, few people are surprised... And the media, if there's any conspiracy to belive, holds the polls for the battleground states in check until people take in enough ads to pay for holograms. The noise is still increasing in pitch, and finding a headline or lead amidst this chaos; this is what we knew and expected, but it is impossible to be prepared for the shear onslaught of this magnitude. CNN being extra conservative with PA polls, ignoring the results as they come in behind scenes, with movement that will make people go crazy with rage and take to the streets with fire and assuault on their minds.
Hold on: MSNBC calls Pennsylvania for Obama. Is this true? False? Lies? Doom? Halleluja?
