1. Chill...the red areas report faster...

give it time, the blue areas will come in...

[Tallison]

2. I call it for Obama...

And I've lived here all my life. I'm not worried at all.

[Hepburn]

3. I understand that NORTHERN VA has not come in yet...

...that will be HEAVY Obama territory! Just wait, OK? :hi:

[Phx_Dem]

4. Don't be. It's too early to worry about Virginia, especially

since we broke McCain's firewall of Pennsylvania. Have a cocktail and take a deep breath. Virginia hasn't been called yet.

[MattBaggins]

22. Broke his firewall?

smacked down his hail mary shot is more like it.

[Phx_Dem]

25. We shot him down from a fucking helicopter. How's that feel Mac?

5. My concern is the voting machines /nt

[monmouth]

14. Me too. College kids given a real run around and they worked

so hard. One county here in Florida had one voting machine in an AA voting district. I'm so livid I could scream. I just pray FL goes for Obama....

[still_one]

19. I know they did /nt

[Thrill]

6. Why? No Hampton Roads and No Northern Va

[book_worm]

7. yes, you have said so in another thread as well. It's red/rural counties coming in first

Obama will do fine.

[Glimmer of Hope]

8. VA is ours. No worry!!!! I have been there. I know.

[Borgnine]

9. This is merely a repeat of Allen/Webb.

This will go in our favor.

[Jennicut]

10. John King per CNN: McCain underperforming in rural VA counties compared to Bush!

[sfam]

11. Lots of dems like me in VA chose paper ballots...

Its our fault that these areas haven't come in yet.

[LostinVA]

12. "Livid" means "bruised," not angry -- and only the red areas have reported

Obama's doing better than I thought he would be at 8:12.

[GreenArrow]

13. I don't get the ballot splitting

How could Warner and Obama's totals be so far apart... Is the other guy that unlikable in the senate race?

[Boudica the Lyoness]

17. Small rural areas

count their ballots very quickly and those area's are conservative. The bigger the area, the longer it takes to count the votes and they are blue areas.

[JJ]

18. Red areas are mostly cows and plantlife

fewer votes to count so they can report faster

[Borgnine]

23. But beautiful plantlife!

I love rural Virginia for the vast hiking trails. If the landscape could vote, it would vote for Obama in a landslide.

[Two Americas]

20. amazing

Do you have any idea how much better things are looking right now then they were 4 years ago at this point in the night?

Pennsylvania is in, North Carolina is looking very good.

[cemaphonic]

21. Look at the msnbc election widget

Obama has a lot of ground to make up, but NOVA is barely in at all, so he has a lot of room to do it.

It would be weird if Obama won NC but not VA though.

24. I am livid I can't block these stupid ass threads
