Shouldn't exit polls be trickling out right about now? I'm all amped up. That officially makes me a dork, but hey, I'll take it...

Re: Tick Tock Tick Tock

I don't know if this is just based on the sad state of affairs in this country right now or what, but i get the feeling that this election won't be decided for days,and will end up stinking quite a bit before the dust clears.

Hope i'm wrong tho.

Re: Tick Tock Tick Tock

^^ I think I'm just gonna sleep on it...TV is just going to be a bunch of people paid to sit there all night and say stuff like:

"well it COULD be the Republicans...BUT, you can't discount the Democrats just yet. So, which is it? Well, I think it's the Democrats...unless the Republicans win. But based on my calculations, if the Democrats can add two more seats here and win in these four counties over there AND also appeal to the senior citizen voters without alienating the younger generation...then the race will still be a toss-up."

I can't take the suspense.

Re: Tick Tock Tick Tock

looks like they got the house, but the senate might still be up for grabs. locally, the incumbant party won everything(democrats)

At least the election commercials won't be on TV for awhile. They've been really annoying the last few days.

I gotta say...wow, what a comeback! And after his own colleagues pretty much told him to get the hell out... The irony now is that if it does end up being a close race for whatever reason, his value is only going to go that much higher...he'll have both sides kissing his a@@... That's gotta make him smile.

CNN calls House control, FOX not quite as pushy on it...
