Hey Barack, You’re Number 44

By Justin Gardner | Related entries in 2008 Election, Barack

Since the nets called Ohio for Obama, he’s assured a win tonight.

Yeah, I know nobody has called it yet, but the electoral road ahead is impossible for McCain. There’s just no realistic path for him anymore.

So congratulations Mr. President. You’re in for one hell of a ride.

Hey — I called it more than an hour ago based on Pennsylvania! Ohio’s just another nail in the coffin, unfortunately.

Well, you guys are ballsier than I. There’s no way I’d call it before Ohio went.

Well done to both of you!

Actually Justin, I called it after FoxNews called Ohio for Obama. I figured that was enough for me to make the leap. :)
