Won't know Prop 8 and others for a while. Polls closed just an hour ago.
I thought McCain's concession speech was very nice. |

My phone? I can't get up. I gave blood today and it didn't go so well. I had to get IV fluids after. I probably should have eaten lunch. |

God all of these gatherings around the country. There's a spontaneous gathering at the White House, people are in Times Square, and then the crowd at Grant Park...
wait... is that the theme from "Independence Day" in the background????
Hahaha. Awesome. |
