Election Night liveblog #24

Also follow our downballot liveblog at Daily Kos Elections Results: CNN | NY Times | Politico ' Poll Closing Times

8:13 PM PT: NBC calls Ohio -- and the PRESIDENCY -- for Barack Obama.

Well, at least until conservatives unskew the vote returns.

8:17 PM PT: Mitch McConnell vows to make Barack Obama a two-term president.

— @UnivisionNews via web We'll have a lot of number crunching the next few days (in addition to coverage of the GOP civil war). One of the big stories will be the inability of a major political party to win on the strength of the white vote alone. The GOP either changes, or they'll face this same fate in four years.

8:23 PM PT: Surprisingly little drama tonight, no matter how much the media screamed TIED, and how much conservatives screamed SKEWED!

8:24 PM PT (Barbara Morrill): New thread here.
