12. If he's not there today it would make him look like a sore loser.
I haven't seen him yet but I'd guess he's there today, even if he doesn't show up the rest of the year.

15. It seems like everyone is clapping for their state
Or maybe just the members from the state winner's party. Because the bigger states seem to be getting more applause, but Obama did not get that much applause from NC, probably because most of that delegation is Republican.

29. Yay, I noticed that!
Even the Republicans got up to clap for Obama. It was kind of awkward when Cheney called McCain's votes...are you supposed to clap for the guy who lost? And is it a cheer for him or for the fact that he lost?
