To make this thread more useful, why don't some of you who live in the US tell us who's more popular in your area?

I live in the biggest biggest battle-ground state in the country, and it shows. People's opinions are all over the place. I personally am rooting for McCain, mainly because I don't get how Obama can do all the things he promises and give people tax cuts.
 
Most of the older people support McCain, but there's a fair amount that supports Obama.

I can't wait for the results... because it's important and because it's part of my homework. :P
 
I wish I had a TV ;;

They're showing the results at one of the student bars, but I'd already gotten changed into my pajamas before I remembered.
I rationalized my laziness by saying that whether I watch or not won't affect the outcome.

What, Danni?
OF COURSE IT WILL! YOU'RE RUINING OUR COUNTRY!
 
Obama is projected to take California :D
But Democrats usually do, so nothing special.
 
Although I am a little lost when it comes to the gory details of politics, I find myself unable to stop keeping an eye on this page here. It's the electoral votes that decide it, right... ? If so: mwee.
 
Yes, electoral votes decide it. And I live in southern California, in that place next to LA.
And Obama has just captured Ohio!
 
It is funny to me that Louisiana went to McCaine. I wonder if he'll do as much for them as the /last/ Republican president.

Hm... Obama's not doing so bad in Texas... damn you, North Dakota.

Um, I don't understand: How did New Mexico go to Obama if Mccain got more votes?

Oh, wow. You live somewhat close to me. :D
And not just in Oooohville.
 
So guys. Obama has won; I predict the networks will call it in the next ten minutes.

eta: wait shit CA doesn't close yet

Yeah, Obama won. No surprise.
California's definitely going blue, don't worry.
 
My point was that if CA has closed polls a half hour ago CNN would have been forced to call it for Obama.
 
I feel sorry for McCain, to tell the truth. If Obama doesn't make it this time, he could run again. McCain... he's old. It sounds like he really loves the USA and believes he can do the best for it. I don't feel sorry enough for McCain to endorse him, but I imagine he must be feeling pretty unhappy.

But it HASN'T closed yet. It's going to in the next half hour, according to the TV, but...

And trust me, I've been waiting for it all night for unspecified reasons.
