Mitt Romney greets supporters who are lining a parking garage at Pittsburgh International Airport on Nov. 6, 2012 in Coraopolis, Pennsylvania. (Justin Sullivan/Getty Images) In two small moments today, one an old tradition, the other an unexpected surprise, President Obama and Mitt Romney each glimpsed victory in today's election. In the final hours of the campaign, both men did what they felt was necessary to ensure victory. For the president that meant a traditional game of basketball, a game he has played before every major election that he has won. The president, who voted early last month, remained in his home state of Illinois today joining old friends and confidants on a basketball court in Chicago following a morning on television satellite interviews to voters in swing states.

Key:
- Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
- The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
- The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).
Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
