As some of you may recall from its election night coverage in 2008, CNN broke out the “hologram” by interviewing holograms of CNN reporter Jessica Yellin, and Black Eyed Peas star Will.i.am.
3 Holograms We Would Like To See On Cable News Election Coverage Tonight
1. Princess Leia in a hair salon chair, replacing her trademark hairdo with Mickey Mouse Club ears, now that Disney has bought the rights to Star Wars. (yes, we realize that is not a shockingly different look)
2. Big Bird – the unwilling non-partisan star of this election. As most bird-chasing cats we know also chase laser pointer red dots on the floor and walls for hours, we hope any news station that does this is also celebrating Bring-Your-Cat-To-Work-Day.
3. Wolf Blitzer. It’s about time Wolf Blitzer interviews Wolf Blitzer. It will be more intelligent than Adam Sandler’s movie Jack & Jill, where he played twins of himself, but probably less exciting. Perhaps 2012 Wolf Blitzer can interview 2008 Wolf Blitzer and ask why the entire hologram thing seemed like a good idea for the “Most Trusted Name in News” at the time.

Yes this was truly a remarkable day. I went out to vote at 6:20 am and found a line that loekod 6 deep up the street at my polling place. At 10:00 am it wasn’t any better but about 1;45 pm on my way back from the bank and determined to vote I found the line a bit more manageable and took the 45 minutes it took me to vote a bit more appealing. I was overjoyed to see so many blacks in line young and old alike. We even had 4 black ladies in their wheel chairs there ready to cast their ballot for the candidate of their choice! A glorious day for all is what it was and as for the result all I can say is Amen!
