The real news.

So Obama won, as many of us knew he would. But when exactly did we know? When did he and Biden really clinch the victory?

The most die-hard McCainians might delude themselves into thinking we didn't actually know until Obama won Florida. Some would say it was a sure thing once InTrade gave the Obama/Biden ticket a 90% chance over McCain/Palin on the day before the election. Some clear-sighted pundits called it weeks ago when the economy was in a nosedive and people were scrambling away from the GOP like rats leaving a sinking ship.

When did I know they were surefire election winners? I'll tell you - 30 years ago:






Damn, I hope America is ready for 8 years of this much pimp.
