I'm so anxious that I'm not going to start watching for another hour. I think I'll go crazy if I'm just seeing 10% returns and its for the wrong guy.

EVERY TIME I GET TOO OPTIMISTIC, I feel the need to go outside, turn around three times, and spit.

BUT HEY YOU GUYS (PROBABLY) WENT BLUE?

YEAH I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH MYSELF.

And yes we are apparently blue even though I can't find any actual results! Oh well, GO PENNSYLVANIA. I like that we were McCain's last hope and he really never had a chance here.

Isn't it weird how early they're calling some of them???? THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME, and yet I am always confused at how/why they're calling things with 0% of precincts reporting.

QUESTION: Do you know why, if Obama has won states that add up to 78, CNN is saying he only has 77? Beth thinks it might be because Maine can split its votes, but in that case McCain would have to be at 35 not 34 SO I AM REALLY CONFUSED.

Also, do you have a personal source you trust the most? BECAUSE EVERYTHING IS SAYING SOMETHING DIFFERENT AND I HATE THIS SYSTEM OF "PROJECTING" I JUST WANT TO KNOOOOOOW. GAH.

I'm with Beth, although I haven't done the math myself -- it looks like McCain won one of Maine's four electorals.

MY PERSONAL TRUSTED SOURCE IS REFRESHING AS MANY DIFFERENT SITES AS I POSSIBLY CAN. I don't know, I really like Nate Silver but I'm not sure I trust him to be as fast/connected as the networks are???? LOL NO HELP AT ALL.

EDITED BECAUSE I'M DUMB! Sorry!
