MSNBC has called Iowa for Obama - another battleground state to Obama.

I am still not calling it but I must say, I am started to feel happy.

I think you are going to hear a collective cheer around the world if Obama can win this. I am watching the gathering in Chicago, wishing I was there, but so proud to see all the different people joining together in a wonderful event.

I can't believe this is happening.  I feel like I'm going to wake up any second now, and it's just going to have been a heartbreakingly beautiful dream. 

I can not believe this.

If the projections are correct that Ohio really will go to Obama, then we can pretty safely say it is over.  McCain needed to nab Virginia, Florida, and Ohio to even have a chance.  There is no realistic electoral scenario that would work out for him if he loses even one of those three.

Rachel Maddows reports that South Dakota's vote to ban abortion failed and Colorado's vote to declare eggs as life has failed.

Let's hope my homestate of California will vote down the evil and vile Prop 8.  Please, California, don't let humanity down.

Florida is almost for Obama.  They're getting close to calling it for Obama.

Amazing interview with Rep. John Lewis on ABC, the guy is a great American.  Listening to him express his feelings about what is happening really is amazing.

I am not a fan of Obama at all. This is a rough night. My head hurts.

Woo. The only thing that can put a damper on my night so far is if Prop 8
passes.
