Barack Obama elected 44th president

What?! When did this happen?!

Does Hilary know about this?

You mean the Electors didn't revolt en masse and vote for somebody else? The way some people here predicted they might a few weeks ago? I'm shocked, shocked, I tell you.

Electors gathering in state capitols across the country have pushed Obama above the 270 electoral votes needed to win, according to a tally by The Associated Press.

And when has the Associated Press become the official counter/tallyer of electoral votes?

How about this for a headline: "Associated Press predicts Obama elected President."

The again, some people (the same "some people" actually) also predicted McCain "has the election in the bag" a few months back. I've noticed that many of them have since tip-toed out the back door (and the few that haven't seem to have pushed said claims under the rug faster than Gene Simmons did with "KISS Meets The Phantom".

I wonder what size Bill O wears? Given the amount of .....errrr.........compensating he does, I'll wager pretty small, so I doubt Obama has anything to worry about from him.

It hasn't been looking good for awhile, but it looks like Giuliani's campaign is really in trouble right about now.

Obama's security chief has declared he'll wear goggles when travelling to the Middle East. "Otherwise," he explained, "the 'sandal' get in his eyes."
