    I feel sorry for McCain, im starting to buy into seamus theory about him (it was seamus right ?) i just wish he had won the nomination back in 2000, things would have been so much better...

    Carolina (south i think) called for McCain

    Yeah the McCain of 2000 at least was still a moderate. The new one is running far too conservatively.

    No surprise about South Carolina. North Carolina will be the one to watch.

    Game over man. No way for Mc Cain to win now, I just can't see it, nor should any other sane person.

    Pennsylvania and New Hampshire for Obama. Big blow for McCain.

    IIRC, the odds of McCain winning without Pennsylvania are essentially nil, though I hate these calls of a state when they're at 0% returns. That just means they're based on exit polling, and we all know how reliable that is.

    Who called that? CNN refuses to until they get some votes in.

    As for McCain's chances without PA, read the first post

    MSNBC called them both at 0%, along with a slew other other ones at the same time.

    Thanks.

    Obama looking good in Florida now - winning some of the swing counties and overperforming Kerry everywhere.

    MSNBC wouldn't call it unless it is safe. And to be fair not as if the polls were not showing Obama up big...
