1. Virginia is too early to call, not too close.

13. No. MSNBC said too early to call. That's a good sign for Obama.

5. Considering they are usually Republican bastions, I'd say yes.
Indiana in particular.

6. For Indiana, definitely yes! Virginia--very good, too.
It's been a very long time since either of those states voted Dem for president. :bounce:

21. Someone earlier said to watch these two states
because if Obama got them, it would be hard for McToast to come back.

But, I can't remember who -- that was when I was still breathing and had oxygen in my brain. lol

11. I'd say yes for IN, not for VA. If it's too close to call for too long
that means evil is being done.

14. None of Indiana's big city counties have reported yet...
That means Obama will get a surge later in the night, just like in the primary.

Yes and none of Gary, near Chicago. Obama is far outperforming Kerry in all rural counties so far

17. I'm here in VA
They are saying there was a record turnout today.

The polls only closed 5 minutes ago.

And don't worry if it's starts turning in McCain's favor for the next couple of hours...the rural and suburban tallies are going to be certified first...

We're not going to know much about VA for several hours IMO, but I might be wrong.....

18. YES!! It's early, but VA and IN are NOT Democratic states. If *those* states are tightly contested..
I'd take that as a very encouraging sign that a *lot* of people got out to vote for Obama..everywhere.

Hang in there! :bounce:
