New York Times has some very interesting maps of the election this week...

And this one takes you to the exit poll data...

What you see is that USa are more than a mix of Red and Blue States (or Red and Blue counties), we are more and more equally divided into two parts of a great whole that is the United States of America.

Obama did well with ALL of USa. McCain just did not do as well this time as Bush did last time...let's HOPE that Obama does better than Bush did over time.

Look at the New York Times Political Map called Voting Shifts. It is getting a lot of news media attention this week.

Maybe not a much as Michelle Obama's "Black Widow Spider" dress... which was a designer dress and that looked a lot different on the designer models, I bet.
