Game over

Obama wins the nomination, McCain finds his smile, Hillary bookends her non-concession speech with "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" and "I Won't Back Down," and The Economist's Democracy in America gets the last word: At the risk of bolstering the reporters-mooning-at-Obama stereotype, if this evening's speeches were a video game, a wrinkled wizard would be hollering "Finish Him!" to Barack Obama while a dizzied John McCain wobbled. And Hillary Clinton would be frenetically mashing the buttons on an unplugged controller.
