Gadgets, Gizmos And Wimps

November 4, 2008 | 7:29 PM

CNN's King, after successfully debuting CNN's hologram technology: "We're frozen up here at the moment."

CNN's Blitzer, after CNN successfully "beamed" CNN's Yellin "into" the CNN studios: "A big round of applause. We did it. ... We beamed [Jessica] into the CNN Election Center."

Yellin: "It's like I'm following in the tradition of Princess Leia."

FNC's Hume, on the new in-studio electoral map: "We're very proud of it because it's very big. ... This is very exciting." More: "We can do anything with this thing. ... It's truly remarkable folks. You don't want to miss this."

The Weekly Standard's Barnes: "I'm proud of all those voters who actually voted today, instead of all those wimps who voted early."

But ... it turns out that Barnes himself voted early as well -- he is in NY today, but votes in VA. The whole panel laughed at him (FNC)
