KEEP IT GOING!!
I have one word for all of this "ratings". All the news media, including Fox, wants this to be too close to call to bring up ratings.
I think this was all planned, as another poster said, THE October Surprise. Show Kerry ahead big as early as possible with skewed data, depress the Bush vote, call the election, have Kerry declare victory, and let the GOP look bad trying to sort it out.

ditto, but they also want kerry to be the president so bad, they can't stand it
I've never been there either. Sean only talks about those mashed potatoes three times a day. :-)
That's about it.
Hey, I know someone who knows someone who works at the highest levels of the Kerry campaign. Last night she sent me a partial transcript of his acceptance speech.
My fellow Americans, I am proud to be your first elected president since Clinton. I want to talk to you about where I plan on leading this nation for the next four years.
I have a plan.
It's a better plan than George Bush's, which was an absolute failure. We've been misled for four long years and our credibility in the world's eye has been diminished. I have a plan to restore our integrity within the international community. As of this moment, I am dropping our alliances with George Bush's coalition of the coerced and bribed.
I have called an emergency summit involving our former allies, allies of which George Bush shoved aside and alienated when he rushed to war. The only way to revitalize our credibility deficit is to adopt full international law. My plan invovles heeding to the demands of the UN, which includes full control over our troops both at home and abroad. The UN has ruled that our military will immediately leave Iraq and set Saddam Hussein free.
George Bush misled this country into thinking that there was a threat from terrorism. There was never a threat, they only struck at us because George Bush stole the election in 2000. Secondly, Allah told them to strike at us, because the glaciers are melting, because Halliburton razed the rainforests in fashion reminiscent of Ghengis Khan and because Bush didn't sign the Kyoto Protocol.
I have a plan to bring terrorism back to the days when it was just a nuisance, much like during the Clinton Administration. We were safer then than we are now, but my plan will save America while earning the respect of the international community. Osama Bin Laden has agreed to stop attacking America and American interests abroad, if we sign the Kyoto Protocol. Secretary of State Michael Moore is finalizing the truce as we speak.
Guys relax, polls dont close for a LONG time in some states, in Iowa the Polls dont close for 5 hours...get some tums, grab some of your kids holloween candy...grab a beer...it's going to be a loong night
I'm wondering if Bush/Cheney expected this or not. If they didn't, what were they thinking? If they did, then where are their people out here debunking this stuff? What does anybody here think??
I always wonder why Rush, Sean and the beautiful Ann give Drudge the time of day.
POLLSTER SPEAKS [KJL]
David E. Johnson, CEO of Strategic Vision, e-mails:
At Strategic Vision, we have been reviewing and conducting exit polls and do not know where the media reports came from. We are showing a slight advantage for Bush in Florida by 1 point.
from NRO
Nam Vet
Gut feeling is that it is razor thin
can go either way
FL and OH: nobody can tell you how they will go
Well thanks Sean now we all feel better...LOL
Hannity says Kerry up 2 nationally and in FL. Bush up 1 in FL in another poll. Close in OH, IA, NM. K up in MN, PA.
He knows something we don't and it's over.
The next step is to ease people into the fact that some bad stuff really has happened.
Florida and Ohio are lost.
I have no idea. Haven't seen anything reported that looks good for Bush. Rush and Sean sounding like it's panic time. Were all the polls showing Bush ahead just wrong?
Very confusing.
Sean doesn't know any more than WE do....which is NOTHING because NO VOTES HAVE BEEN COUNTED.
I am about to turn off Hannity.
You are posting doom and gloom all over the threads. The only 'letdown' I hear in with you. Buck up or get off.
FROM MARY MATALIN [KJL] 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."
