The Guardian goes to bed early, so today's edition (mine, anyway) didn't have 
the results.  What it did have -- in clear expectation of a Kerry win -- was a 
piece about Blair that goes against both his behaviour and the 
(reliable-sounding) leaks re his massive respect for Bush.  I particularly 
liked this bit:

>>>>>>>>>>>
But in private Mr Blair has let it be known life would be easier for >him under 
a Kerry administration. His thinking is in line with his wife Cherie's, who 
during Mr Bush's visit to Britain last November referred to him as "that man" 
who had caused so much trouble for her husband.
>>>>>>>>>>>>

OOPS!

this later story is headed "Blair Congratulates Bush Win" (yes, the Guardian 
subs are hopeless)
