1. Uh oh, Tweety just said he was right predicting 52-46 percent
Edited on Wed Nov-05-08 07:11 PM by itsrobert
What's this going to do to Tweety's self-esteem?

9. I'm more worried about Letterman's self-esteem
Dave said that the road to the White House runs straight through him - and boy, was he right. Especially with Indiana turning blue. America's new kingmaker?

(Only kidding, of course.)

4. EXACTLY Erin
Yep 7 points surpasses Clinton in 1992 and nearly ties Bush 41's victory over Dukaksis. This should make Chuck shut up. XD.

7. Keep in mind that no President-elect has exceeded over 51% in 20 years.
Now, that's amazing.

8. whatever we do, let's not re-live the "rounding wars" from primary season
Remember those? It was like I was back in fuckin' math class.

We won. 52-46, 53-46, whatever. We won decisively.
