Vote
Polls open as early as 6AM in some states. If you have to go to work today (as I do), get up early and vote. ... especially if you live in a state where your vote actually counts.

McCain as Macbeth, Obama as Hamlet
Stephen Colbert makes the comparison, with some help from Stephen Greenblatt! Colbert: "Can you answer all my questions in iambic pentameter?" Greenblatt: "My lord, on that one, I'll get back to you." Colbert: "I think there was a trochee in there." (Link above is to video on Comedy Central's Indecision 2008 blog.)
