BUSH HAS THE MO [KJL]
That's the GOP message tonight as they work to the ends of the continental U.S. and beyond--to Honolulu!! Bush/Cheney is confident this Saturday night. They believe these last days will prove they have made significant inroads throughout the U.S. at the grassroots level. Starting yesterday, 150,000 volunteers are working in the tightest states, contacting 18 million voters to get out the vote for W. They say they’ve registered 3.4 million more Republicans since the last presidential election. That those GOTVers are volunteers, too, they say is significant.
In Florida alone—on Friday alone—GOP officials say volunteers knocked on 170,000 doors and made 200,000 calls. Though E Day they expect those numbers to hit 17,000 volunteers will 800,000 doors and 1.2 million calls. Just in Florida, a state where they’ve been confident for more than a few days now. But it’s not lackluster in Ohio either. GOP officials are saying 14,000 volunteers will knock on 400,000 doors and make 990,000 calls.

I'd be LMAO at that . . . but I wouldn't put it past either of them if Kerry got elected.
***They will say that Karl Rove arranged for Bin Ladin to make the tape. Heck, Walter Cronkite is already saying that now.***
I suppose that means BinLaden engineered the flu shot shortage, too, right? LOL!
Hi,
I sure hope it is truely reflective of events to come.
I would think that the early voting would favor republicans and would consist of those men and women who travel a lot for their jobs and will not be here to vote.

Polls are so unpredictable. In 1980 Reagan and Carter were essentially tied going into the final weekend before the undecideds broke heavily towards Reagan in the end and he won in a landslide. The pundits were talking about a nailbiter of an election in that year too.
No one under 35 knows who Uncle Walter is. No one under 50 really cares. Those of us who do are furious that he snookered us for all those years.
Walter Cronkite, the Most Rusted Man in America.
He's only planning that in places where it is tight or if he comes within 1 EV or so of winning. Otherwise, no lawyer will touch it and he will have to concede, graciously or not.
This will limit the lawyers to a few counties, here and there, IMO.
My uncle in Hampton Roads, Virginia e-mailed me today with some pictures and a little bit of news on their end. He told me that both him and his wife and their 3 daugters and husbands and their 9 grandkids were all pounding pavement for the last couple days converting Democrats to vote for Bush. They even formed a neighborhood coalition of Bush supporters waving Bush/Cheney signs along a busy stretch of I-64 on Friday morning for several hours. Many folks who drove by honked their horns in support of Bush/Cheney.
I'm concerned about voter fraud, too...
But let's get down to the REAL issues, here:
Where is our Useful Idiot Caption-A-Rama? It's been a month, and we're all going through withdrawals!
:o)
Brand new nephew , WOOHOO!!!!, tell the wyzz.
Looks to me like Kerry's press pool is breaking out...
I don't believe such a story would be written by a pool reporter on the winning plane. These are all signals about a campaign that knows it's losing.Angry over on-air remark, adviser threatens a ban
Boston Globe, Patrick HealySNIPS:
Kerry advisers quickly backtracked, however, concluding that an escalating conflict with a major cable channel just days before the election would do nothing to help the Democratic nominee...
The furor was a rare moment of visible frustration inside the Kerry camp: Kicking a major cable outlet off of the candidate's plane would almost certainly spark a run of negative stories in the media about Kerry lieutenants lashing out and their preelection confidence vanishing....
The episode was a relatively rare flash of tensions between a presidential campaign and the media this year.
At the Bush rally on Thurs, high school kids were still signing up volunteers for the 72-hour program, not letting anyone "sit this one out." There were kids there from MIAMI (OH, not FL)
Remember Rove was also confident 2 days before the election in 2000 and you saw what happened. This could be good news for the GOP because there is no way Rove would let insiders say this a second time around if they were not completely confident. We could be seeing a landslide in the making.
Well, I'll lay out a full and detailed explanation. You see, it's like this--OH MY GOD, WHAT IS THAT THING OVER THERE!!
I knew there had to be SOME plausible explanation. :o)
Don't know, but that sounds logical because I saw pretty many of them at the Hershey Sports Stadium and massive amounts of them a Lancaster the following week.
He probably invited them on a personal basis. Sounds logical to me.
