NBC’s Kelly O’Donnell’s cute! At first. Then, the longer you look at her, the more you start to hallucinate that she’s going to bite you.

At least, that’s how you feel after you’ve been watching election coverage for about six hours. You start seeing things, man.

I wonder how the ice-painters on the NBC set feel about this whole thing. If there was anyone hoping for a quick resolution to the election, it would probably be those poor guys. I don’t think anyone was really looking forward to playing paint-by-numbers at one-thirty in the morning, so I can only imagine the simmering resentment down there on the rink.

Still 100,000 separating Bush from Kerry. Nearly 3.3 million putting Bush ahead of Kerry, in the popular vote.
