We will not tire, we will not falter, and we will not fail! [President Bush]
Good morning!! Do not let the victims of the attacks on New York and Washington, nor the brave members of our Nation's military who have given their lives to protect our Freedom, die in vain!!
Yesterday, a 7.9 magnitude quake struck Alaska, south of Fairbanks. The quake was felt as far away as New Orleans. Only one injury has been reported. The Alaska Pipeline is intact, but shut down this morning. Some support structures are broken about 50 miles south of Delta. Damage exists on the Alaska Highway. There is also some damage to the Parks Highway, as shown in the following photo:
Zogby has Jeb Bush with a 15-point lead going into the last day before the election.
Mondale still leads Coleman, but only by 5 percentage points.
Carnahan and Talent are tied in the Zogby poll, both at 46%.
The New York Times is conceding the Republicans will likely make gains in the House.
And authorities are investigating whether a shooting in Clinton, Maryland, was related to the sniper. While previously not believing that to be the case as it didn't fit the MO - the victim was shot several times at close range, but still managed to survive, authorities are taking another look because a laptop computer owned by the victim was among the items recovered from the sniper's car.
For AMERICA - The Right Way, I remain yours in the Cause, the Chairman.
Yes, indeed he is. He chose very carefully a solution that would help only his party. Even though he now has, temporarily, a party of 1 in the US Senate.
Will you be able to watcxh the returns?

Zogby has some crediblity because Rush liked his guesses and he guessed right more than wrong. But I think he has results designed to get publicity rather than be right. I don't think there is one chance in 50 that Jeb Bush has a 15 point lead in Florida. Zogby publishes a few outrageous poll results so it gets him publicity. He will be right on some... but don't put a lot of faith in his outrageous polls. I think he had McCain in South Carolina in the 2000 primary for a while. That was pure garbage.
Look at where the candidates were today and yesterday. I don't know what is happening in Texas but McBride had people working in Black Churhes and He has campaigned in southern Florida in the final days. If McBride doesn't have 90 percent of that vote already he is a gonner.
Bush was in south Florida too. If bush had problems with his base he would be in Northern Florida. Both are campaigning for McBrides base.
Look at what the texas candidates are doing. Look at the media stories. They will contain hints that tell you. When a story says what x must have happen to win, it means x is losing. >
I don't remember seeing leads changing as the center picks candidates. Once some of the center starts to go more for one candidate than the other, there is not normally much change except the undecided number goes down. It takes a defining event to change that ratio. I don't think there has been a defining event to change the Texas vote.
Molly and kayak: I may not be on FR, but I will be praying with you at 5:00 PM Eastern.
