Way too early to say if this is a trend, but FoxNews has a tally running with McCain running about 6% ahead of Obama, and is calling 8 electoral votes for McCaina and 3 for Obama.
It's barely after 6PM here in Minnesota. It will be a LONG night.
UPDATE: 8:25PM

Northfield, a city that carries the moniker of Cows, Colleges and Contentment may need a sign update after a St. Olaf professor is forced to resign after being charged with stealing campaign signs. I think it is a no-brainer to figure out which campaign signs he stole: McCain/Palin. He ...

A friend of mine sent this audioclip link from the Howard Stern show out on one of the lists I am on. It is very telling about why some people, in this case some residents o Harlem, support Barack Obama.
Asked the question: do you support Obama for his pro-life positions ...

Looks like we have another winner of the Moonbat Award, this time going to Congressman John Lewis (D- GA.) for his allegations that the McCain Campaign is like some of the civil rights era bombings that took place in the south. Say what?!
From MyWay News:
In a statement issued Saturday, Lewis ...

It's about leadership. That is the number one criteria for being president of our great nation. With the ongoing financial crisis going on, Senator McCain displayed tremendous leadership instincts by announcing he would suspend campaign activities, including the debate scheduled for this Friday, and return to Washington in order to ...

I only caught a small chunk of last night's Emmy Awards, but what I saw, and have since read in the news, shows exactly why these people should stick to making films rather than entering the political dialogue.
I am harvesting these quotes from Variety.com:
"The election between Jefferson and Adams was ...

Lordy, how the Left hates Sarah Palin. Over on the Berkeley Daily Moonbat, the paper of choice of the rabid left in Berkeley California, there is a piece by Becky O'Malley that really raises the stench of hate against Sarah Palin. And she not only manages to denigrate the ...

Obama Campaign staffer, Howard Gutman, had this to say about Governor Palin (FoxNews):
"If my daughter had just come home at 17 years old and said, 'Mom, Dad, I'm pregnant, we have a family problem,' I wouldn't say, 'You know what we're going to do? We're going to take this private ...

The Leftist Moonbats have gone way to far with their despicable agenda of hate. This time they are attacking Sarah Palin, the Alaska Governor that John McCain has selected to be his running mate and eventual vice-president.
An anonymous piece-of-refuse known only as ArcXIX, who blogs on the extreme hard-Left/Marxist site, ...

What a difference a day makes. Yesterday, people were still talking Romney and Pawlenty as the most likely choices for McCain's running mate. I get up this morning to the news that it will be Alaska Governor Sarah Palin. On the drive in to work, Laura Ingraham was giving a ...

Two liberal lawyers in the White House.
Barack Obama has announced his running mate pick: Joe Biden. We now have a very Liberal/Marxist ticket consisting of two lawyers, both of whom are career politicians, and neither of whom has served a single day in the uniform of the Armed Forces. As ...

I find it ironic that Barack Obama criticizes McCain's campaign for pushing that ads that portray Obama as being a "rock star" and "the chosen one", and how opposed he is to attack ads. Now Obama has a new ad that is about as negative as you can get when ...

I found an interesting take on why you should never vote for a person who is pro-choice in, of all places, the Northfield News. It was on the letters page, and found one specific passage to be very enlightening:
Let me give you some key indicators of that candidate's true character. ...

It's amazing how quickly the Mainstream Media comes to Barack Obama's aid after he gives a bad "performance" on national TV. On Saturday there was a special interview forum of Barack Obama and John McCain; same stage, same questions. There is a fair amount of video from the event out ...

McCain, as we all know, has been painting Barack Obama as being the world's biggest celebrity, and doing so with some success as Obama continues to prove McCain (and his campaign team) right with that analogy. Who else can go to Berlin and hold a campaign rally that attracts 200,000 ...

Okay, I have to admit it, McCain asked for this one. He really did. Also, McCain's staff should have cross-checked to verify if any of his donors were related to Paris Hilton, like, maybe her parents.

Barack Obama is now accusing John McCain of accepting campaign contributions from oil companies.
From Yahoo News:
In a new campaign ad, the Illinois senator said McCain had taken campaign contributions from big oil firms, as Americans struggled with high gasoline prices, and fears of recession stalk the US economy.
