I repeat je jej ej eje Virginia is Obama by two points...

You saw it here first...

florida is Obama by 4-5% if nothing significantly changes along the night.

It is a good margin, a fair vistory but it does not seem a landslide...

Indiana is the only real toss-up.. plus Montana which I will crucnh the numbers as I get them..

A pleasure

My dear, kcurie.  A black guy with a "Muslim-sounding" name seems poised to win the presidency.  If that ain't a mandate on its own, I don't know what is.

I worte mandate.. sorry I meant landslide.. landslide..

it is a clear mandate.. sure.. I meant landslide..
it does not seem a landslide...

No southern state beside florida, not even arkansas, no west-virginia, no georgia..

only Indiana which is too clsoe to call and maybe Montana... half a landslide if they go to Obama.

A more impressive mandate in the popular vote would have been useful. It doesn't look like it's going to be anywhere near the 7-8% we were promised.

I have not done the maths as in virginia, Indiana and Florida.. but it can reach a 2-3% of the total for obama (4-6% of Obama over McCain).. so it could reach numbers close to 7%.

Bu  10% for Obama seems out of the question.. and that what I called a landlisde a 55-45%... now it seems far.. unless New York and California vote like... huuuuge.

It actually should expand out a fair bit.  We still don't have a whole helluva lot from the blue states that have been called, and Obama's going to walk out of Cal with a big margin.

To put it into perspective: I went to bed around this time in 2004.  Kerry was down about 10.  I woke up to find Kerry down 2.5.
