Excellent analysis. Thanks for sharing this. I buy your conclusions completely. Could you elaborate perhaps by providing some additional comments on how you think a dishonest election can still go W's way in Ohio. I have little doubt that an honest election would give W the victory by a sizeable margin (maybe landslide even). However I have always believed that the Rebublicans have had a 2-3 point disadvantage due to basic dishonesty among Democrats. Not to say all repubs are saints - I am no saint. But, I sincerely believe that a worldview such as theirs is so fraught with contradictions and impossible outcomes that the only way they can continue to hold to their fantasies is to attempt to engineer them by cheating. Cheating that is justified thorough elaborate rationalizations. Anyway, do you have any insights here? Or do you think I am all wet as far as Ohio is conerned?
This is actually not my analysis. Go to the Horserace blog ( http://jaycost.blogspot.com/) and you can actually ask this question to Jay.
Did you hear Rush read all of my post today? He said it all about Ohio in his last hour. Rush and his staff lurk here a lot.
