In my house we have been glued to this race - the atmosphere on election night is going to be electric but I'd definitely stay at home and watch it from my sofa!

Of course it's important and could be History but it's dominated our news for so long now. Well I will be glad when it’s all over to be honest.

It's totally fascinating. Hi James, good to hear from you, and no, I had no idea about your early Obama blog post. I knew I was leaving myself wide open with my statement, but was hoping that bloggers would confirm this one way or the other. I would be interested to read your post and the comments if you could forward it. Sky News this morning was reporting how Obama has it in the bag, that McCain’s campaign team is struggling.

All salespeople will be pooling their sales and bonuses into a common pool that will be divided equally between all of you. This will serve to give those of you who are underachieving a "fair shake." 2. All low level workers will be pooling their wages, including overtime, into a common pool, dividing it equally amongst yourselves. This will help those who are "too busy for overtime" to reap the rewards from those who have more spare time and can work extra hours. 3. All top management will now be referred to as "the government." We will not participate in this "pooling" experience because the law doesn't apply to us. 4. The "government" will give eloquent speeches to all employees every week, encouraging it's workers to continue to work hard "for the good of all." 5. The employees will be thrilled with these new policies because it's "good to spread the wealth." Those of you who have underachieved will finally get an opportunity; those of you who have worked hard and had success will feel more "patriotic." 6. The last few people who were hired should clean out their desks. Don't feel bad, though, because President Obama will give you free healthcare, free handouts, free oil for heating your home, free foodstamps, and he'll let you stay in your home for as long as you want even if you can't pay your mortgage. If you appeal directly to our democratic congress, you might even get a free flatscreen TV and a coupon for free haircuts (shouldn't all Americans be entitled to nice looking hair?) !!! If for any reason you are not happy with the new policies, you may want to rethink your vote on November 4th. Judging by this email from a friend in the US I think Obama probably IS the new Blair:

Promising style and 'change'. I'm not encouraged either by Bill Clinton's (the founder of the credit crunch) support of him. Is he the Blair of the USA ? Promising style and ‘change’.
