Ok, so it's almost over. Today is officially Apocolypse/Greatestdayever-Eve and change truly is in the air. From distant corners of this great country comes a resounding voice echoing the same sentiment: "Man, I'll be glad when this election is over." In just 30-odd hours, America can return to its restful state of not caring about politics again. Gone will be automated Facebook statuses (Robots4Obama!) and workplace discussion can rightfully return to college football (shameless plug here).

The box office returns for John and Barack Make An Election seem to indicate a great success, but the reviews seem mixed for the most part. It's one of those stories that you have trouble getting into because none of the characters are very relatable. It's all so scripted, it feels more like the hysteria regarding a new season of Lost than an election. Better yet, will America agree with Simon Cowell in crowing the next American President?

One thing is for certain, the Hope/Change/Audacious/(Fill in buzzword here) Express in the Sky has no room for the Straight-Talk Express, but did anyone ever take that thing seriously anyway?

This already smells like a conspiracy. Voter fraud! Bradley Effect solved!

Oh yes, just in case anyone was wondering, Oprah endorses Obama (old news, duh). On a related note, Cindy McCain endorses John McCain.
