Scary contrast between the campaign headquarters of the candidates.

The Dems are playing music and the crowd is animated...singing along, waving flags, etc. No sound on the CNN feed from the Republican HQ.The Republicans are watching a big screen with election results and are quite serious...even somber. No smiles...some tears. A perfect image of defeat.
AP 11:22 ET: At home in Chicago, the president all but claimed victory. "This happened because of you. Thank you" he tweeted to supporters.
It ain't over yet, but...
UPDATE: Shit. Maybe it is over. FOX just called the election for the Usurper.
