I spent most of the day just checking out a few shows of note and seeing how they were reacting to things. I checked out the Daily Show/Colbert's Election Special. Granted, it was just a smidge anti-climactic seeing it after the fact, but there were a few good bits there. In particular, it was entertaining to see Stephen Colbert interact with John and the rest of the Daily Show crew. It's almost like he's a guest star or something, but in a good way. It also makes you appreciate that Stephen does most of his show with almost no on camera support (he, of course, has the same corps of writers).
Much like fellow blogger Sam Johnson, I found myself hopelessly intrigued by what The View would offer up today. And boy, howdy. Sherri Shepherd had a breakdown just talking about the whole thing. Whoopi talked about how she cried the night before. Then Barbara talked about how she cried the morning after while seeing a clip of Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech... then she showed a clip from said speech and dang!
And that was just the first fifteen minutes.
Elizabeth took a cue from John McCain and was disturbingly calm and congenial the entire show, and said she planned to support the new president. So if everyone follows The View's pattern, we'll all be one big happy family sometime in the next few days. And then suddenly, we'll be boring and no one will care about us anymore.
Then, of course, I goofed around too long, overslept, and didn't have enough time to go cross town and pick up my precious comics before work. And you just know I had prime reading time at work today, too. Ah, well. All the better to write with, I guess.

And since everyone else has an Obama image of some sort up, I might as well drop one, too.
