I know I just said I wouldn't post as much, but.... this is huge.
Obama has finally flipped a big "red" state -- MSNBC has given Ohio to Obama. Coupled with his win in Pennsylvania, he has taken another major step to victory.
Also, Louisiana to McCain.

Right now it looks like you're poll will be correct when this is all said and done. Obama looks like he'll win big.
It looks like Obama is pretty destined for the win having 200 electoral votes to McCain's 85 Obama just needs 70 more. Let's hope that republican's loose graciously and don't harrass Obama these next few years.
It also looks like the house and senate are going to be democratic also. So he may not need to worry as much because of that change if it happens.
It does look like the online poll and the vote in my classes today both mirror the results tonight.
Obama needs just 70 more -- and California (55), Oregon, Washington, and Hawaii should all go for him. Florida, Virginia, and North Carolina could all very well go for Obama as well.
did all of you're classes choose Obama to win today Mr.Crane?
I know our class had Obama winning 25-5 or something.
Were all the classes pretty much the same?
Jameson, two of my other classes were similar to yours with a huge Obama edge. My Period 8 class was closer, 13-8 for Obama with some undecideds. My Sociology class was 12-6 with some undecideds.
How many of those people voted the same as their parents?
Obama is not the right person for this country.
Bryan -- I haven't analyzed that yet, although I may have a chance during WKCE testing tomorrow to work on that. I'll announce the results once I have them!
I believe that we'll just have to wait till the election because the news is very liberal and they dont report accurate all the time
Ok, I was just wondering because a lot of kids seem to not really know the issues and just support whoever their parents support
We'll if you talking about me thats not the truth, yes my parents voted for mcain but just becaues my parents vote for him dont mean i like him. i like his views and i dont believe that obama has enough experiance to run this country, if he wins we are dombed
Grant, you may be right, we'll find out over the next four years. One thing we are pretty sure about, though, is this: President Bush was not viewed as being the right person for the country -- his approval rating is about 30%. Since McCain is in the same party and has voted along with Bush's wishes much of the time, American voters probably see McCain as Bush 2.0.
It's probably not completely fair, because McCain HAS worked with Democrats and opposed the president on various issues. However, McCain chose to focus on his "Republican-ness" instead of his "Independent-ness" in order to get Republicans excited about him and get them to the polls today. In my opinion, this was a mistake.
You have to win over moderates and independents to win the presidency. Obama moved to the center and grabbed these swing voters. McCain moved to the right and conceded these voters.
I wasn't talking about you, i was just talking about kids in general. Also, if kids hear one thing that they like in a commercial, they tend to like that candidate
I also think that Obama doesn't have enough experience to run the country, but at this point it's looking like he's going to win.
Yes, that is very true but he may have voted just like bush but that doesnt' mean that he's going to run the country just like him, i dont like some of the things he does i believe in conservitism. One thing i wish wasn't an issue in this race is the "race" card that some obama people play.but there was a very good special on pbs about both canidates and they are both very smart and have done good things
By the way who is bryan16?
I agree, but many of Obama's beleifs are way too extreme.
And if you don't mind me asking, who are u (grantformacain)
Bryan, of course that's true. I didn't even become that interested in learning about the issues and where I stood on them until I got to college.
In 1988, I wore a pin for a presidential candidate because the prettiest Troyette in school asked me to wear it. I would not have supported that candidate today.
This is grant p. And mister crane you were letting girls influence you to much.. HEhe
I agree with Grant
Mr. Crane...you were a crazy teenager just like most of us boys are today.
Grant, I agree that both candidates are good ones. I thought that even going back to the primaries when Americans were selecting which candidates would be the ones representing the parties, that there were several people from both parties who would be excellent presidents.
Hasn't Obama had planes to be assaisnated a couple times?
I think so to, almost all (not Hilary) would've been great presidential candidates
Grant, yeah there have been plans to assasinate obama, but they were broken up before anything happened and nobody knew how serious they actually were
McCain just won Nebraska
bryan are you bryan russert?
and mr.crane do you think sociolgy would be a good class for me and zach?
no im Bryan Ryder not Russert
Oh hey big dawg. its grant parsons
Mr. Crane, how come the time is wrong on this thing
hey, yeah thats what i figured when u said grant p
Wow, I can't believe that Indiana still isn't for one or the other. I can't wait to see what candidate it will be, it'll be interesting. And hi Bryan.
OMG ANYONE WATCHING THE NORTH CAROLINA RACE, 10,00O VOTES SEPERATED THEM
oprahs on abc
Hey jame47 who are u
Jameson. And yeah, Grant, that is a very tight race, that's gonna be close when that's over
All of my predictions are correct so far.
obama is prolly going to take califoria when it closes at... i think 10, and then mcCain will have to take alot of other states to catch up
This is Brandi B.
I've been watching the Election like crazy, and I am amazed that McCain has the ammount of electoral and popular votes he has.
I think Obama has this in the bag considering he's supposed to get California.
we will see in like a half an hour.... looks like the senate is democrats too.... BRANDI IT'S JESSE!!
The House is also Democrats. It looks like the next 4 years are going to be very democratic. Very good if you're a democrat.
I left my November Madness predictions at school, but I think North Dakota is the only one I've gotten wrong so far.
It does look like the Senate is majority Democratic, too. I wonder how that's going to work for Obama. Just because the President and the senate are the same party doesn't mean things run smoothly...
I think Obama's pretty much the new President. California's most likely going for him, and that'll almost definitely secure his seat in the white house.
And, lol. Hi Jesse.
i'm so happy we have a short day tomorrow!!! i can stay up later and sleep in
look at the district of columbia obama is winning 92% to 8%
Wow, that's not a blowout at all.
Obama wins in VA, OH, PA, IA, WI, NM, MN, MI, NY, RI, MA, NH, MD, CT, NJ, DE, VT, DC, ME, IL
McCain wins MS, TX, UT, LA, GA, SC, AR, AL, OK, TN, WV, KY, ND, KS, WY, 3/5 in NE
According to FOXnews.
9:57 PM
Think about me when you're rolling out of bed at 9:00. I will have been at school for a couple of hours. ;-)
Only three minutes until the polls close in the western states.
Also, Indiana, Virginia, and North Carolina are all going to end up being extremely close, but looking at which counties still have votes to report, Obama may take all three.
Those are the exciting one's to watch
Electoral:
Obama: 297
McCain: 135
According to CNN.
9:59PM.
OBAMA WINS. First African American to be president.
OUR COUNTRY IS DUMDED
we are all dead
Wow you're positive Grant.
Blame it on the Redskins for losing, that's why a Democrat got put into office.
The theory of the Redskins is true again.
Washington Redskins lose their game before the election...a change of party occurs.
They win and the same party still holds office.
And they lost last night.
Grant, my best friend agrees with you.
And which team was the only one to beat the Redskins in the final game before the election and NOT cause a change of parties in the White House?
The Packers, in 2004.
Hmmm.... maybe John Kerry actually WON the election in 2004....
Good one Mr. Crane
ME AND ZACH ARE GOING TO CANADA LETS ALL GO BEFORE OUR COUNTRY GOES UNDER AND BECAUSE A 3RD WORLD COUNTRY
Grant and Zach, before you go, realize that Canada is actually more liberal than the United States. :)
Yes but they wont be going under like us. We'll see what happens
grant i can't wait untill we have universal health care and the econemy is running smothely just so he proves you wrong
GO OBAMA!
Ok just let everyone who doesnt work hard for there money sit at home on there butts eating chips so they can get free health care, if you want universal health care. GO TO CANADA EHY!
