Given the fiascoes with exit polling, I don't think the networks will call any states as soon as polls close, unless the difference in their exit polls is huge (at least 10 points) and consistent with pre-election polls. So don't freak out if PA, VA, etc, are not called for Obama outright (If NY is not called outright for Obama then definitely freak out; if states like SC are not called for McPalin outright that's good as it means it's not a blowout there).
