SENATE SOURCES: DEMS SEE 58 SEATS; EXIT POLLS RELEASED 5:15 PM ET
At least it’s not filibuster proof majority.
And so it begins...
lol, yeah Drudge was so right with all his exit polls during primaries, lol. Way way off.
Exit polls are worthless. Vote, vote, vote. Don’t be discouraged.
My GOP Senate sources see the DEMS losing 58 seats. :)
THIS IS SO PATHETIC!
If the Senate Dems said the Sun was coming up tommorow, I run out tonight and stock up with a 6 month supply of flashlights.
Right before that it said, “Obama breaks out the champagne”
I just don’t see how this would possible.
HAHA - the fact that these Dem “sources” are saying only 58 means that the reality is that they know they are not going to get anywhere near a filibuster proof majority.
Expect the exit polls for 0bama showing him up 5-15% in VA and PA and OH.
Remember 2004? Exit polls show Bush losing PA by 18 points and losing NH by 14 points. Both BS.
I saw that as well...I guess it’s based on the exit polls...I mean WAAAY off in 2004, way off in 2006 and they’re still using them? It’s a disgrace...

Let's hope he breaks it out the same way John Kerry did.

Ain’t good enough. Lets hope he’s wrong.
Early reports are the Dems have already overreached on their agenda.
Currently there are just 49 Dembot Senators in the Senate.
Period.
P.S. There are 49 Republican Senators, too.
Let's see who caucuses with whom...
These will be the faux exit polls. The better ones don’t come up until after all the polls close.
DON’T GET DISCOURAGED!!!!!
Toast - Why Obama Will Lose and the Political Analysts Will Be Destroyed
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2124448/posts
In 2004, the media wisely delayed calling states when voting hadnt been completed (such as Florida in 2000). There will be none of that delay in 2008. I suspect we will have many states called for Obama before the voting is even done. The state that will be erroneously called for Obama will be Pennslyvania. In Pennslyvania, all the Obama votes are mostly in the Philly and Pittsburg area and Obama will comfortably carry those areas. And those areas are the eastern part of Pennslyvania with the western part being more rural. With the Obama leads that Philly and Pittsburg area comes in, and the myth that Obama is ahead 25 points (or whatever) in PA being believed by the anchors, they will call PA early. But once all the rest of the state votes, they will have to turn it into a toss-up. They will be EXTREMELY reluctant to call the state for McCain even when the votes clearly show he has won there (and he *will* win there.)
Obama will take New Mexico. Iowa is a true toss-up. Nevada leans McCain. Colorado wont be called until very late in the night because it will be close. Virginia will go to McCain but the networks wont call it, because they wont believe McCain has won it. NC, IN, GA will, of course, go McCain. NH will also go McCain. The Rust Belt will be full of surprises on election night. I expect the traditional blue states to be more competitive than we have seen them over a decade due to very soft Obama support. (I am curious how strong Obamas vote will be in New York, the state where Clinton is senator).
xit polls will be off as well. PUMAs have instructed their members to lie to them, to say they voted for Obama. Others, so pissed off with the media and pollsters, will lie and say Obama simply because they want to see anchors and analysts make history by having the first strokes on live TV. The sheer anger at the legacy media cannot be underestimated. There is a reason why their ratings and subscribers are in free fall.
But look at what they DONT say in this “leak”
No mention of Obama’s chances...
Hmmm.
