Election Wrapup

We really can't ignore the elephant in the room, so to speak, can we? I was, as usual, glued to the TV and the Internet for the election. I'm proud to report that Harris Online was the first unofficial outlet to report to its East Coast correspondent, Kyla, that Webb would take Virginia. I was obsessively watching the Virginia State Board of Elections website, which is great. With 98% of the vote counted, Allen ahead, and the populous and Webb-leaning NoVa suburbs still to come in, I did the mental math and let Kyla know the prediction. I see that the rest of the press caught on today.

I also expect you all would like to know that our roster of robo-callers this time around included Bill Clinton, Al Gore, and other politicians, but also Clint Eastwood and Robert Redford. If it wasn't for political junk calls, nobody would be calling me.
