Sometimes it’s hard to be a politician

This is probably truer than we realize…

Barack Obama appears to have won the Presidential election.

I never thought I’d live long enough to see a black man elected President of the United States, but that appears to be what has just happened this evening as most of the networks are calling it a done deal.

It’s a Presidential Election DANCE OFF!

The heads are little small for the bodies in a slightly creepy way, but if I wasn’t paying close attention I might be fooled:
