Election Coverage

Is it just me or is the interactive board thing that CNN is using to cover the elections the coolest device ever? It's like monority report, but for election geeks. I tried to find a picture of it, but was the best I could do. They can just touch a state or county on the screen and bring up graphs instantly, or even draw on the board with their fingers. It is the coolest thing ever. Where was that thing when I was in school? Maybe they will have a version of it on their website soon that we can play with. A big shout out to CNN for bringing their A game to the election coverage. Now just figure out a way that I can play with it too.

I was watching one night and John(forgot his last name) could not touch Rhode Island. He would touch the screen and every state around Rhode Island would pop up, but never the one he wanted. I think that Fox has floating 3d graphics.

Would you please comment on what Chicagoans are saying about Obama? I recently stuck an "Obama '08" sticker on my truck. Thanks.
