Encouragement from Mary Matalin:

Mary Matalin:

I said to her, "The blogosphere is going batty." Her quick response, "Batty? Lord have mercy. One exit; bad model. Look to history. Early exits are never right. also read Mellman in the Hill today. The bloggers need to do some lamaze, open a bottle of good red, get ready to party."

Furthermore from an insider:

"[T]he race isn’t going to be the kind of victory any of us hoped for; but equanimity is a good trait to have at times like this. Things looked worse four years ago, at this point. Look, I expect it’ll be close; and no one here can assure a win by any means. But the internals matter, and as best as I can find out, in an honest assessment of the facts, they are looking pretty good to us. Better than the early exit polls have led people to believe."

Just thought we could use a little encouragement as the working class goes to vote!

Ralph Reed was just on Hannity's radio show saying the same thing, but he had numbers. The Bushies are fired up.

My only guesses are that the sex is great or Opposites attract?

I'll take Ralph Reed's numbers over anything Mary Mattalin says. She was still saying Bush's father was going to win when it was crystal clear there was no chance for him.

Does anyone know where Wonkette is getting her numbers? Are they AP leaks or DNC internals?

That is an excellent question. How can they even stand each other with their opposite political views?

What exactly did Ralph Reed say on Hannity? I'm not listening to any radio or TV.

this kind of talk makes me nervous, it could be an attempt to lessen the blow. I hope not(I should point out that by nature I am a major pessimist) and still believe the President is going to pull this off but I sure do wish I could relax a little bit.

I heard Drudge on Hannity earlier. He was skeptical of the exit polls. He stated clearly that while he did not trust them as being accurate (noted that the methocology was flawed) he had to report them nonetheless.

If y'all remember, NBC called Florida for Gore the minute the polls closed despite the fact that the actual votes didn't jive with their call.

Exit schmxit.

Vodka, chilled with a twist. Rocks.

Feel better?
