Thus The New York Times tonight. “Electoral advantage holds,” explains the newspaper, “but popular vote is tight.” Congratulations, Obama! It is your night for true. I got up at five o’clock to see how things were going. It is just past six now, and I am returning to bed at last. It is still dark out there. When I went to bed last night, I had no idea that I would be so concerned about the American presidential elections, but here I am. Obama’s night, indeed.
