6:00 PM PT (Laura Clawson): We're broadcasting on Daily Kos Radio. Armando, Kagro, Greg Dworkin, and a bunch of other cool people are hanging out over there.

6:00 PM PT: Romney gets a bunch of red states that everyone expected to be Red. Wolf says they're "major projections".

6:02 PM PT: Michigan called for Obama, first "battleground" called, though no one really thought it was competitive except conservatives believing the unskewing bullshit.

6:04 PM PT: Michigan called immediately for Obama. Romney Super PAC Restore Our Future spent $2 million in the state last week, and $4.5 million over the last three weeks.

6:04 PM PT: CNN Exit polls: Wisconsin 52-46 Obama, 48-48 Colorado, 50-43 New Mexico, and 50-47 Minnesota.

6:08 PM PT: CNN projects House will keep control of the House. No surprise. Now we see how much closer we got to the majority.

6:09 PM PT: I like being able to fire Scott Browns.
