CNN has called it for Obama as well! Amen. A time for change, so long overdue. It's enough to bring a tear of joy.
I know it's very trendy to bash the host of the Oscars...goodness knows, I've done my fair share over the years. However, I think Jon, given the constraints of the event, did very nicely, and most of his jokes got chuckles around the house. He held up respectably and gave a decent performance, in my opinion.
That being said, I definitely agree with most of the comments...and add this one: what was with the slowly burning car and agonizingly slow performance art during the theme for "Crash"? It's not "Cats", people. If they aren't singing a chorus or helping us enjoy the song, get them off the stage!
Just some thoughts...
