If that is an actual bumper sticker who sells 'em. Kerry is done for but as yet not the msm. I don't want the left to forget we've got 'em figured out.
koko see post #14, LOL!
I heard that too, but I really missed his headcover, LOL
I got my election night news on the FR live thread, at least until I was informed it was safe to turn on the TV again after the early and wrong exit poll nightmare.
..."Our whole goal was stop the train from moving that way."
This is a minor point but I believe that all of the polls had closed by this time. The only way the outcome could have been changed was by election fraud.
The "Socialist Obsolete Damned Old Media".
SODOM
I don't know, I have my doubts.
LOL.
"I wish the obsolete old media would just hurry up and die."
Unfortunately, there is always some idealistic young twit brainwashed in a university school of "journalism" that is ready and eager to take their places. Stupidity is perpetual.
About 2 a.m. on Wednesday morning my daughter and I switched from Fox News Channel to CBS and CNN. Not because we had lost faith in FNC, mind you, but simply for the comic relief.
From what I saw, the networks were pretty prompt about
calling a state for Kerry. California hardly had one
percent in when they called it for Kerry, and others were
called quickly for him or so it seemed to me. It was
fun to watch as the worm turned and they were squirming
and stalling to a standstill, trying to work out how Kerry
could win. . as if, only if they wished hard enough . . .
It's ok, you're allowed to view the Moron networks when they are whining, as long as you are not a Nielsen family. :-)
To be fair, I recall looking at Nevada's returns, though, and most of the outstanding precincts were in Clark County and whatever Reno is in, which at the time were leaning so heavily Dem that I can see them holding off (all the Republican areas were at 100% reporting by then). However, FNC held off even as it seemed more likely Bush would win it, while calling Ohio earlier than expected. I think they were afraid that if Ohio went the other way, they'd be more embarrassed if they'd already put Bush "over the top" by calling NV, too.
Spok...you said..*I've never enjoyed watching election coverage so much in my life. Once Fox and NBC declared Bush the winner, I switched to CNN (first and last time, I promise) to watch Larry King and Wolf Blitzed squirm. Blitzed even had the nerve to proclaim "we're not holding off because we favor any candidate-we just don't want a repeat of 2000". I sprayed my coffee table with Coors Light. CNN knew they were lashed to the deck of the good ship Kerry/Edwards and it was going down. It was ecstacy to watch.*

Me: Drats...I wish I had switched channels as you did...just to watch the squirming...well...next time.
Thanks for the huzzahs.
It's just something I slapped together when the Rather/Burkett flap started, and it turned into a work in progress, logos added here and there. There's no bumper stickers, but it's an actual size lossless .png, so feel free to pass it along and make your own.
Of course the media did exactly what Kerry's team said. It is shocking, outrageous, but they did the same for Al Gore.
Well, if Fox was unsure of its Ohio call they should have retracted it. CNN, ABC, and CBS all called Nevada for Bush hours and hours before Fox. Actually, Fox wouldn't call Nevada for Bush until Kerry conceded, as if he was conceding Nevada. It looked ridiculous.
Agreed. I was watching for them to call NV as soon as Kerry conceded...and sure enough, only a few minutes later (less than 1/2 hour), they called it.
