Did you see how will.i.am was being projected by hologram to CNN headquarters to talk to Anderson Cooper? Crazy stuff I tell you.

Is there any way you can link that to me? (Is will.i.am a Newgrounds user?)

CNN projects Thomas Udall to win his Senate race in New Mexico, so assuming that Ted Stevens loses his seat (common sense permitting) and the Dems win the states that they're already leading in, a supermajority will rely on the outcome of Oregon and Idaho.

The Presidential race is essentially over, but this would be the cherry on the icing on the cake.

People who don't bother to read or learn history, shouldn't be able to vote.

That includes you.

Obama'll lower taxes, and he'll look into alternate resources, lowering the gas prices, and he'll get all the ladies.

Yeah! I heard he'll also buy us all brand new 42 inch flat screen plasma TV's, take us to lunch at nice little place he knows downtown, and let us ride on his finest steeds.

Because, you know, Hoover's economic policies don't in any way mirror those of Obama's, right?

Do you even know History's slogan?

He won Florida. Maybe McCain can make a comeback, though unlikely. I'm happy for this fact, that Obama will win.


Vote Green.

Yep, it looks like Obama has secured the victory, not a surprise, but still history.

Regardless of policy for a second folks, let's all take a moment to realize that this country has now FINALLY lived out it's creed, all men are created equal, a black man will hold the presidency of the united states (barring massive fuckery)

Landslide victory: Obama won Virginia, possibly Indiana, and Florida. Possibly also North Carolina.

Not only is he the first black President, but he is also the first person in a while to turn so many Republican states Democrat.

Let future generations look back on this, that only after over 40 years when the minority gained equal rights and then had to work hard to gain the respect in the eyes of everyone, see that a minority can become president, and know that no matter what someone tells them, they can become whatever they want to become.

Are you kidding?

I wanted him to win for 1 reason only: So I wouldn't have to deal with excuses for why he lost.

Bush excuse: "He stole Florida"

Obama excuses (in the making): "America's racist"

Something dosen't make sense...did they stop updating the websites or something? California still has 0% of their vote counted...maybe I just don't know something! Can someone explain it to me? McCain is even winning California on my computer right now!

Did you hear McCain's speech? Honestly, if you took away the black vote how much would he still have lost by?

It was a stump speech. It's all that he could say.

Basic. Kerry did the same, and so did Gore.

Not bad Obama...not bad at all.
About time we have a democrat in there, we can see how they will act in the new millenium. And to have a Black dude in there, it only enhances this effect.
Can't tell if this is good or bad, but these are going to be an interesting four years.
