Courage, AP, courage.
Hold your ground, AP! Now that you've gone out on an early limb [well, I guess it is early compared to the rest of the media clan], you will be battered and second-guessed.
My suggestion: AP, ya better go back and re-check your scriptures--the exit polls. The revelation of those exit polls is all-knowing. And if your exit polls say Kerry, ya better repent and at least become a temporary NM agnostic.
