We saw the tendency of broadcast journalism in the past election, when the delay in calling any given State for Bush was out of all proportion to the delay in calling a state for Gore, the margin of victory being similar--and, most notoriously, the state of Florida was wrongly called for Gore in time to suppress legal voting in the Central Time Zone portion of the state, to the detriment of Bush and very nearly turning the election. That was electioneering over the regulated airwaves on election day, This was a deliberate act, no matter how much the lying media protests that fact. I wonder what they will do this time to attempt to defeat President Bush. Believe me, they are already working on a plan for election day.

Beyond peradventure. There is no way to convince me that the journalists could have gotten the words, "Bush wins Florida" out of their mouths if Gore was ahead at the time, as they did call "Gore wins Florida' when Bush was ahead.
