11:15p: Just got off the phone with Harlan Ellison. After a stream of un-printable, joyous profanity, he said:
"Today is the day America ransoms itself from durance vile."
Look it up. It's wildly appropriate.
11:11p: FOX News just got officially funnier than Jon Stewart and Steven Colbert.
Sorry guys.
11:09p: Just got off the phone with my dad. He was an election official in my hometown. Went to work at 4:30 this morning and got home 10 minutes ago. There was a three hour delay when they opened 'cuz there were too many people waiting to vote.
11:04p: Aaaaaaaand SCENE!
11:02p: FUCK YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
11:01p: Here we go. Big polls closing. Fingers crossed…
10:59p: William Bennett just said "(Obama being elected) happened in George Bush's America." He's right. George Bush burned the country to the fucking ground, so we finally went for the calm, smart guy.
10:56: William Bennett can go fuck himself. Seriously.
10:49p: Wait…CNN has holograms? What the fuck?
What have I been saying about Barack Obama — if he gets elected, he'll bring us crazy new technology. Well, guess what? STAR WARS technology on
CNN! Whoot!
10:43p: YES! Yes! YES! FUCK YES! Virginia just went to Obama! My home state! Way to go, Virginians!

So when he does something great, who claims it? something bad? Which half?

Have lived in "communist" Virginia for years, so excited to finally see the state go in the blue column.
President Obama!!!
this is amazing, congratulations America. I'm going to pass out now because it's starting to get light out.
When I saw the hologram guy on CNN, I started wondering if Anderson Cooper was going to whip out a lightsaber.
Do you think Obama will bring us lightsabers?
HOORAY VIRGINIA! I'm so proud. Go Roanoke!
Help these people out, man! In durance vile: http://www.word-detective.com/042601.html
