Thumbs down Obama Wins Big

What a crappy piece of reporting. This was one of the big headlines on my news module this morning. It is already projected that Obama will get 344 Electoral Votes to McCains 164 and he only needs 270 to win.

Wasn't it just a few years ago they were complaining about the media making projections before all of the polls closed. Now they are doing it and the election is still 3 weeks away. I believe the reason they gave for not letting them project the winner before the polls closed was it was keeping people from voting because they had already declared a winner. It that was so, then I guess there won't be anyone voting this year. But some news medias ratings will take a jump today.
