Anyone else watching returns?
I love to watch election returns.....right now my kids are watching TV, but I have foxnews.com up on my computer......I like to stay up late and watch them, no matter who wins. I always have - anyone else?

I was watching Fox for about an hour... but decided to wait a little closer to 'closing time' to tune in again. I am watching the returns online though.
I can't be out of money... I still have checks left!

My ODS came home pretty sick today, so he's been laying on the couch and watching whatever he wants to watch. I have CNN.com in my second IE tab to keep watch of the landslide election.

Twitter on the computer. MSNBC on the TV, switching back and forth with the local news station.

I am watching. DH gave up and went to sleep but this is such an important election that I am not ready to sleep yet. I love all the election night hoopla and since it only comes around once every 4 years I like to see it through to the end.

We're watching it. I think Dh is depressed with the results. lol. Me? I'll live with whoever is in office. I have to say though, it is amazing knowing history is being created tonight.

I'm ready for the whole thing to be over. Honestly I don't think I'm going to be happy with whoever ends up in office but I'll deal either way. I can't be any worse than last time. I cried when I got up that morning.

Missourimom, I agree completely. It is something to be a part of an historical moment that will change our country forever. I rarely stay up for the results, as I usually vote weeks earlier and figure it will be what it will be. But I can't seem to keep away from the t.v. tonight!
