Round up

Thursday, November 6, 2008

Let's see...so far today:

-The NY Times has debated both Michelle Obama's dress and the the Obamas' choice of canine while simultaeneously pointing out that INDEED young people turned out to vote (about an extra 2 million of us).

All of which are interesting topics, but only one of which is something I see as important (the dog, duh!).

In case you were under a rock on Tuesday (or you're above noticing clothes) Here's the dress:



-Politico has announced that Rahm Emmanuel is indeed taking the Chief of Staff gig. This dude will be, it seems, a bad ass.

-Nate Silver is still freakishly eerily correct in his election predictions. I mean seriously, maybe he hacked those Diebolds...

Actual:


Predicted:


-Meanwhile, over in holo-world, CNN's headline is about a 106 year old voter.

Way to go Ann! Now, CNN, if you could, like, cover Obama's cabinet choices too, that would be cool. Just saying.

-And over at the National Review? Well, they're spending their day debating whether Obama is the "Great Black Hope"...What?!

In news from my own neck of the woods, someone in Cambridge carved a creepily accurate interpretation of Barack Obama's face into a pumpkin. I'll post the pic later, it'll be great.
