Apparently, McCain is conceding in Colorado, Iowa and New Mexico, and pinning his last hope on winning Pennsylvania (in addition to all the usual swing states), a state where he's double digits behind.
It's only yesterday that the tangible reality of an Obama Presidency started to seem real to me. And in fact, I'm still not quite sure I believe that this country will really elect as President a black northern urban liberal (four strikes you're out?). The country I thought I knew doesn't elect someone like that President.
Of course, it's not the country I once knew: the Republicans and so-called conservative governance have so thoroughly fucked things up here that even the vast unreasonable masses realize that only a black northern urban liberal has a dirty snowball's chance in hell of pulling this country's collective irons out of the fire.

So true - if every major poll showed Obama with a 20 point lead, I still don't know that I'd really believe he'll win!
