Karl Rove, the president's top political adviser called the race for Bush. "We're ahead," he told reporters in Cincinnati, Ohio, the last campaign stop Sunday. "We will win Florida and Ohio. We will take at least two or three or four states that were won by (Democrat Al) Gore in the last election."

I don't think they would be joking around like this if they weren't confident. It hysterical.

[Stentor]

but why would he want to look so ridiculous on camera?

Will stem cell research help the development of humor transplants?

[Mo1]

I hate to say this, but Karl looks kinda ridiculous in this camo garb or whatever it is

I think that was his intent :0)

[cubreporter]

What in theee hell does that have to do with anything? Chubby? Who cares?

[Trust but Verify]

If we win those two, we win, no doubt about it. To win my homestate (WI) and a couple other 'blue states' would be icing on the cake.

There is a way we can know by Tuesday afternoon who has won.

I'm going to be listening to Rush Limbaugh. In 2000, he was generally upbeat until the third hour of the program, when his mood inexplicably turned dark and hesitant. We later learned that he had received the results of exit polling that showed Gore slightly ahead. This year, I pray he's whooping it up in the 2 o'clock (ET) hour!

Look at #13 and some of the other posts.

IT WAS HALLOWEEN AND DO YOU REMEMBER WHAT KERRY DID TO GET THIS RIDICULE?

New Mexico guaranteed to go in Bush column

Iowa and Wisconsin very likely.

"We're ahead," he told reporters in Cincinnati, Ohio, the last campaign stop Sunday. "We will win Florida and Ohio. We will take at least two or three or four states that were won by (Democrat Al) Gore in the last election."

Excellent

What does ROFLMAO ? mean. Sorry I am new.

I doubt that Rove and the others would be joking around if their internal polls were bad. You didn't see the Kerry people in costume. I am looking at how the two campaigns are acting more than what they are saying. With that in mind, the Bush campaign is acting like the winner.

Check out the "W"! These guys are have fun, very good sign.

[KavMan]

some people are sooo stressed out that they don't even know yesterday was holloween and that was their stupid john f'n keery costume

and some people here are trolls

[Hermann the Cherusker]

bush can win without Ohio, but that would be cutting it very close.

Of course he can. Bush was only the second Republican in history to win without taking Pennsylvania (Nixon in the strange 68 election was first). These rules aren't written in stone. Did you know that no Democrat has won without taking Kentucky? Do you think Kerry has no chance because he won't Kerry Kentucky?

That said, we will win Ohio.

Rolling on the Floor Laughing My A** Off.

[Josh in PA]

Please elaborate more on this with what happened with Rush in 2000... More details on how his mood switched..

i.e. what was he saying first two hours, what was he saying the last hour.. specifically?

[Salamander]

"Rolling on floor, laughing my @ss off"....:)

[Diddle E. Squat]

Nevertheless, the Bush-Cheney team's optimism may be tempered by memories of what happened four years ago. Two days before that election, political adviser Karl Rove predicted that Bush would defeat Democrat Al Gore in a landslide with 320 Electoral College votes.

i agree, they look to be having a blast which is very comforting. i trust him implicitly. but that being said, i wonder why he is making any prediction of victory, all pubbies need to vote their little heads off!

[Lijahsbubbe]

The DUmmies must be weeping rivers of tears upon hearing this from Rove. After all, they believe that Rove is capable of all, omnipotent, omnipresent and supernatural! Bwahhahaha.
