Lincoln movie looks good
Mitt's in trouble in CO.
Cohn on FL:
But he has Plech down to 6% battery power... nearly curtains.

Alan Grayson won in FL..
yehaa..
yehaa..
My tea party neighbour is having an election night party. I so want to crash it!
Beeb reacting to breaking news as slowly as Motson responds to an offside goal.
Romney is still winning the popular vote, lulz.
Well, I don't see it that way, but I lived in the BA for 20 years before moving to Chico, so it may have colored my view. (Needs more than one decent Indian restaurant to be liberal for me, I think!)
Custom is not to risk "influencing" votes in a state by referring to its outcome (however obvious that is) before the polls close.
It's like putting a United top on in the Kop end. Good luck getting out alive mate.
Think this is over now. Florida is moving further and further for O, with 85% in and a 45k lead.
There's nothing to get BBC viewers on your side like a NASCAR analogy.
It's tight as feck at the mo. O needs the black vote in the northern cities to come through.
You should offer them tea.
He could still be at the end of the night, apparently a lot of the west coast do mail votes and they take days longer to count.
Anyone got a stream or otherwise way of watching the Comedy Central coverage? It's not available from my location.
BBC iPlayer is fecking shite. Keeps freezing and stuff so I switched over to Fox news which has been fun so far.
Votes not coming in from West coast yet where Obama will make up the numbers.
Has there been any update of the legalization states yet?
Just anecdotal but apparently african american turnout was bigger than 08.
I reckon I'd do Emily Maitlis.
I didn't think they were doing anything.
4% power... goodnight ladies and gents
NN exit poll on Iowa 52:46 in Obama's favour. Now looking very difficult for Romney.
You'd have to go through me and Pete first.
Just turned on the radio to hear an American comparing Obama to Hitler in terms of his ability to mislead the public and distort the facts.
WTF?
Anyway, moving on.
WTF?
Anyway, moving on.
WOoooah there!...Where is Jeremy Vine?....He seems to be on some kind of Day Today parody of an MiB Spaceship.
night plech
That wouldn't be pleasant.
Fox News trying to come up with a scenario of how Romney can win, and it's a spectacle."What if Romney where to come back in Florida. What if Ohio, etc."
Obama is going to win Florida. He's up with 86% of the reporting in, and many votes still being counted in heavily Democratic areas in South Florida.
Many thankyous.
Remaining vote in FLA looking good for Obama. I'm surprised FLA going the way it is. I thought Romney would be winning that by a couple of points.
Silver's getting 50/50 this time.
I'm having fun imagining Mitt's face at the moment. I reckon he's still smiling, but his brow be furrowed.
"What if Romney where to come back in Florida. What if Ohio, etc."
Let's basically give him all the states which are too close to call, even though he's behind in most.
Why not give him California if we're talking about what ifs...
Family members getting depressed on FB. I'm loving it. My cousin's husband (Army Sgt) says he might have to move to Mexico.
Starting to really pull away in FL.
The dems should be able to relax now. It was pretty much about FL and OH.
