1. 2 for Obama?

I know OmahaSteve was thinking only 1 would go blue. This is good news!

[RoadRage]

2. I'm in Omaha. OMG OMG OMG

We were HOPING for Omaha to go Blue.. 1 electoral vote.

But, it appears as thogh Lincoln is also going blue (45 - 55 for Obama right now). That's UNL.. 25,000 College kids.. and NO ONE thought this would go Obama.

I guess that was 25,000 cell phones that perhaps didn't get polled?? :)

OMG OMG OMG.

If this happens.. I will LOVE MY STATE!

It looks like my phone banking has paid off!

13. Keep an eye on House race

Lee Terry vs Jim Esch.

Lee Terry is the incumbent and a Republican. He is an ineffective leader and is running low-rent ads like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZS4--wRFEZk

I can't decide if I want Terry or Michelle Bachmann gone more.
