Obama Posts a Crushing Victory in Georgia

Well this is an exciting way to start the night. If Obama's numbers are right the size of his win in Georgia is enormous.

Per Obama spokesman Bill Burton: Obama's victory in Georgia was achieved through a broad coalition of voters. He not only increased his support among African American voters since South Carolina (78% in South Carolina to 86% in Georgia), but he dramatically improved his standing among white voters (from 24% in South Carolina to 43% in Georgia.)

And on that very good news I'm going to step away from the computer and the blogs for a few hours. Baltar might post on events as the night unfolds, but I won't be back until around midnight or tomorrow. I want to watch the tv coverage, as that's (for good or ill) sometimes as important as the vote totals when it comes to determining who "won".
