I myself would like to emphasize that it's not too early to tell that the oil plunge is over, and it was gimmicked up for the election. So buy. Back to $3.75 a gallon next spring and over $100 per barrel. Because they can.

Don't you become they after Obama wins? Why not keep oil prices low if that was true?

Looking at the map I see very few counties that are both blue and in the north, and everyone says how Northern VA is so blue, so yeah, the McCain vote was released first.

Fox talking about other networks calling Pennsylvania.

They acknowledge the exit polls show an Obama win. But, without actual results coming in, they holding off on a call.

Early returns are McCain 55-Obama 42 but it looks like southern VA is in and Northern VA isn't.

Yeah I see that, just curious how the math looks.

Like in MO if McCain is up 3% before St. Louis rolls in, I'm betting my entire net worth on it.
