When will the networks call it?
By Michael J.W. Stickings
As the NYT is reporting, it could be early.
CBS News Senior Vice President Paul Friedman: "We could know Virginia at 7. We could know Indiana before 8. We could know Florida at 8. We could know Pennsylvania at 8. We could know the whole story of the election with those results. We can't be in this position of hiding our heads in the sand when the story is obvious."
If it's obvious. And it could be, not long after 8 pm.

The liberal media called this race about 3 months ago. I can't wait to see all this great change we are going to have, oh and can we now abolish the NAACP - Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton etc.. I guess your services are no longer needed. Gonna be hard to sell rascism to a country that's majority just elected a black president.

Are shows like Bill Mahr, John Stewart, SNL all going to go off the air? Who will they make fun of now - Dem Prez and Dem congress - Lets see how fast these celebs turn on the Dems all in the name of comedy and entertainment of course. I guess Rush Limbaugh, Savidge, Medved all those guys will have TV shows now - only makes sense.

Not necessarily a good thing if calling it early depresses turnout on the west coast.
