Helms was from North Carolina. You're probably thinking of Strom Thurmond.

Ah yes, the cunt who made the 12 hour speech or something against the civil rights act...? I couldn't believe it when I first went there and saw the confed flag proudly flying over their Capitol. in 2004. People just seemed to accept it though.

left the BBC, indulge a guilty pleasure of Fox every few mins, but Sky with graphics and calls from CNN, NBC, ABC constantly, seems to be the best.
exit poll, Obama ahead 1% in Florida

 

[Hocus Eye.]

Ii am broadly sympathetic to Obama, with lots of reservations, purely because the Republicans scare the shit out of me despite Obama's many failures and broken promises especially about war. However in the UK I wonder if I could bring myself to vote for Miliband on the same basis. I think not. Does that make Miliband worse than Obama in their respective countries? I used to think that I understood politics, - not any more.

Called states: Obama 64 votes, Romney 40.

No surprises yet though obv
