I could probably think of dozens of people I know who are watching. I know most of my friends are.

2. OH, yeah ... CNN International is probably carrying it ...
There is UNPARALLELED interest in this election
overseas (especially in Europe). And thanks to
the net, they can be watching ONLINE too!

10. I'm watching CNN International

12. I'm not far away - Canada - but we are seeing, and loving, this...
seriously, I'm a ranting lefty - even for a Canadian - but I want to vote for this man. I want to volunteer for him, I want to donate to him, I want him to win all 50 states - Barack Obama deserves to be the most powerful man in the world. I've never felt this way about an American presidential candidate before (and I really love Gore, Clinton and Kerry).
