What the hell is HSPA?
For all who don't know what the HSPA is, it's the High School Proficiency Assessment, the NJ graduation requirement test taken as a Junior to see if you're able to pass to graduate. If you fail one or both parts, you're required to take a remedial course and try again in October of your Senior Year. If you fail again, you take it in March. IF you fail again, you won't get a high school diploma and won't graduate. Unless your IEP specifically says you're not required to take it, then you have to. You'll get a certificate of attendance of High School, but you won't get a diploma because you failed. I think that's rather harsh, but still...

So it's similar to what we here in PA have - the PSSAs (Pennsylvania System of School Assessment).

This is McCain's priceless reaction:


 :rofl2: :rofl2: :rofl2:

I heard the annoncument right at 11:00 PM ET just as WTVT-TV flipped it over to national programming. :yes:

Since Clinton's departure, I have been for Obama. Though, I must say, McCain's Concession speech was pretty good. He's still an ass hole though. :biggrin:

Looks like CBS was the first to report Obama being the next President (I thought NBC was). I received a text at 10:58 pm:

Quote
KDKA Alert: CBS News projects Barack Obama has enough votes to win the White House. In Allegheny County, Mr. Obama won 58%-41%. More @ KDKA.com.

CNN reporters are having a very difficult time getting McCain to victory - even giving him all the remaining states (including OH, FL, VA), EXCEPT CA, WA, OR (which will undoubtedly go to Obama). :dance:

On a lighter note - Brian Williams just compared NBC's virtual set to TWC's HD set. :biggrin: :clap:

Schieffer is really pushing that Obama will indeed be the next President. Within the last 20 minutes, every time I flip to CBS, I hear him stating such an opinion.

CBS' Bob Schieffer has stated "the cake is baked" [referring to Obama will be the next President of the United States].
