ABC's graphics are annoying

The top line is for the president

The row under says senate, but they are not the same state.

Both CNN and Fox have morphing electoral vote/board thingies. There won't be anything concrete numberswise til it's all done. They're all playing with colorforms.

My favorite is Obama vs Nixon. Tricky Dick is back!

OBAMA xx% .... MCCAIN xx% (President)
NIXON xx% .... HULSHOF xx% (Missouri Governor)

It bugged me for a while until I figured out that they were doing them alphabetical by president on top, then doing all of the other races alphabetically on the bottom.

They should have just done it state by state and left the bottom blank if there were no races.

Emma had to watch election coverage tonight for a half hour as homework. She was specifically told that Stewart/Colbert didn't count.

And wrong - they are very good politically. Okay, you have to discern the sarcasm from the facts but that is part of becoming a thinking adult.
