I was also amused watching NBC (and CNN) last night. They were so desperate to keep the hope alive, constantly saying "It's not over yet! It's not over yet, too close to call", when it was obvious it was already over.
- pgodzin 10y agoDon't think it was so much desperate as you don't want to make an early call on the presidency without being sure. They acknowledged that they didn't really see a path, but wanted to get specific info in (like absentee ballot numbers) first before making the official call. Some states still haven't been calling half a day later.
- __derek__ 10y agoI'm not sure when you were watching. Chuck Todd started saying that there was only the slimmest of hopes for a Clinton victory before 8 pm PST.
