Wow anyone watching CNN? They have a hologram of a reporter there. They are using 35HD cameras and using projectors to make the image. Real neat :yes:

From what I've seen so far, NBC's virtual sets are very interesting!

OMFG I swore for sure that Obama was getting the lead
Still real early!

Yea I saw that! Must be real hard to know what you are doing. I heard that some of the reporters had months of training.

On CNN right now, a lot of the states are still white
It's really too early to tell just yet

Well were talking about small, expected states so far. Those swing states are key!

States like VA and PA are the most interesting, including FL

I really think VA and FL will go McCain but loose PA. Very interesting to watch. Ive been to both a McCain and Obama rally and there is strong support for both in VA. It will be close

I got to give credit to every network. The graphics are amazing in HD! However MSNBC has the BEST website I have seen so far.
