Good one.

Watching MSNBC, their reporter at Romney HQ says there's general confusion there. First Romney would speak in maybe 15 minutes, maybe an hour. Then John McCain was going to speak. Then Ryan was coming to wherever HQ is, but then he went back.

Nice try...but I'm too happy to be outraged by that inane comment.

In one night, the US got rid of Romney, Akin, Mourdock...hell, even gay marriage got legalized in a couple of states! In one night, I got to see Fox News utterly humilliated!

It's traditional to wait for the opponent to concede. Apparently, breaking this tradition might make Chris Mathews cry...he's been very emotional about it all night.
"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.
