Twitter & Election Day

[JackReacher]

I had my computer, iPhone and iPad on different sites last night, checking this that and whatever. Not once did I go to Twitter. Didn't see a need. What could Twitter have told me that news sites couldn't?

Depends on why you'd go there. I had the TV on for the "news" portion of it. And I had Twitter up for the "fun" (and sometimes "scary") portion of it. To me, the "news" was pretty boring without the "fun." But to each his own.

The only Twitter interaction I had yesterday was with you and your wife and her man-crush (and your eventual replacement)

That was Facebook.

But yes, she was...let's see, what's an old-man phrase you'd get?....over the moon?.....about yesterday's happenings.

Sonner's getting dumped for Barack Obama?

Worse. A no-walking, injury-prone power hitter.

Worse. A no-walking, injury-prone power hitter with terrible hair destined for the American League. Or first base. Or both.

Oh, Morse? Yeah, that guy needs to walk more.

Election Night did produce the most Re-Tweeted post of all time:

That photo was taken in Dubuque at a campaign event I covered. Kinda cool.
Our photographers caught that same presidential embrace from multiple angles, but not this specific one, which I'm sure was captured by a WH photog.
