Recent elections had obliged by actually being close. But this time, the pundits had to speak in a subtle code, saying what they knew without saying what they knew. "Everybody check my math," Keith Olbermann asked the MSNBC panel, defying them to say which state could get McCain to 270 electoral votes. Liberal bastion California? Obama's home state, Hawaii? "You have a jeweler's eye," Chris Matthews told him slyly...
Meanwhile, in Miami, in a carpeted ballroom at the Jungle Island tourist attraction, stoked Obama supporters drank beer and wine and ate flan while watching election results on CNN and MSNBC. After the Ohio win was announced, all hell broke loose. "O-Ba-Ma!" they chanted. It was a diverse crowd: Cuban Americans who had voted Republican until this election, Hillary Clinton supporters who carried buttons for her in their pockets and traditional party liners wearing jeans and drinking beer. Many wore "I Voted for Change" stickers. In a corner, Eloisa Hidalgo dabbed tears as states began coming...

"In six days, we can choose hope over fear, unity over division, the promise of change over the power of the status quo.
