Have to stick with Fox News. It's going to be a late night though...and probably won't have a "winner" until the AM.

Yeah, this is the true lesser of evils scenario. They're all gonna be chomping at the bit to call one state or another which will lead to a lot of wrong information. If McCain picks up some early shocker states, immediately change it to MSNBC and watch hilarity ensue. Other than that I'll probably flip around a lot.

We sportscasters always used to get a kick out of Election Night when the newsies spend the evening being sportscasters of sorts. Elections are the only time when they actually follow the action and then break down the results in a postgame scenario with the winners & losers.
They also always brought in free food and that was always good.
I'll probably check in late evening. I'm taking my 6-year-old to his first experience of playing organized basketball tonight.

I hated organized basketball at that age, because I kept getting called for 3 seconds, and no one ever explained to me what that meant.

So, Sly, don't let your boy camp in the lane, and it will all be good!

I've seriously thought about going to that election viewing party thing at the Vines. It could be fun. I stress could be.

I'll be mostly on Fox News Channel but will flip to CNN or MSNBC. So far of the graphics packages, FNC has been the most 'clean" and easy to read.

They actually called 3 seconds at that age? That is beyond LAME.

I think the hologram is fake. They've only shown it from 2 angles. So I think they just have 2 cameras on her and they're adding her in the picture in the production room.

Few things about the SA thing at VINES
first, I won an xbox 360 which was pretty sweet.
second, when they announced cali, all the obama people of a certain color pretty much rioted. then they were throwing out ipods, and it was amazing, they were already stomping on people trying to get a handout.
later, an obama supporter got called up on stage to answer a trivia question for a gps. The question "since you clearly voted for Obama, due to your shirt, what is Obamas hometown?"
The dude didnt know, and had to get the answer from people in the crowd. Yet this guy was allowed to vote.
