It came from Carl Cameron (I believe) from the dems. So, first, this 250k is bogus. Secondly, whatever # of provisional ballots are out there, what % are valid. By the time that is all weeded out, Kerry would have to take 100% of them to win.

What I understood Cahill to be saying (via Cameron on FNC) was not that there were 250,000 provisional ballots; the OH sec-of-state earlier said there were something like 130,000 of those. Rather, Cahill was saying that the remaining 8-10% of the precincts not yet in constituted 250,000 votes, and that they believe those votes will break heavily for Kerry, and thus make up the difference. So it's not (yet) an attempt at fraud, or lying about provisional ballots; it's just a desperate attempt to hold off the inevitable until it is ex post facto.
