I mean come on no other station pulled out the stops like they did. I almost fell out of my chair when the halographic interviews and capital images were on screen! Straight out of Star Wars. Top it off with that awesome touch screen and full HD I was in high def future tech election heaven!

The holographic interviews allow more of a one-on-one interview. It helps when for example, Will.i.am was in the crowd in Chicago but his interview was able to be heard because of the holograph. Other commentators that were within the crowds could not be heard due to the crowd noise on the floors. <br><br>Creepy? Unclench people. This is Engadget, not a Foxnews forum. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Achilles]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 5th 2008 11:14AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on CNN's holographic freakout begins, seems totally bizarre and unnecessary]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/11/04/cnns-holographic-freakout-begins-seems-totally-bizarre-and-unn/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/11/04/cnns-holographic-freakout-begins-seems-totally-bizarre-and-unn/</guid><description><![CDATA["Unclench people."<br><br>Funniest thing I've read in a week.

It was just CG trickery for us watching at home.  Now when they can do that stuff for real right in the room for everyone to see live, that's when I'll be impressed.  But until then it's no more impressive than a CG Jar Jar Binks.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Loban]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 5th 2008 11:51AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on CNN's holographic freakout begins, seems totally bizarre and unnecessary]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/11/04/cnns-holographic-freakout-begins-seems-totally-bizarre-and-unn/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2008/11/04/cnns-holographic-freakout-begins-seems-totally-bizarre-and-unn/</guid><description><![CDATA[The holography didn't do anything to the crowd noise.
