OH and PA go to Obama = Nail in the Coffin

CNN hasn’t called it.

MSNBC hasn’t called it.

FOX News hasn’t called it.

NPR hasn’t called it.

We may be jumping the gun, but Matador is projecting that Senator Barack Obama will wake up tomorrow morning with a new title: President-Elect.

The chatter inside the NPR news room is that the official call of an Obama win in California will be the final domino.

The current Electoral College count is:

Obama: 207/270
McCain: 129/270

We’ll bet all our chips on Obama. You can tell the world you heard it here first.
