LMAO! I remember the initial panic on FR in 2004 when the initial reports showed a big Kerry win. When the votes were counted, Bush was re-elected and the GOP increased their hold on Congress. So I wouldn't put much credence into any reports. Its just too early to tell how its going to go tonight.

To heck with all this exit poll nonsense. I'm going to do what I did in 2004. After dinner I'm going to shut off the droning drooling media, get away from the Internet, read a good book (I'll finish Steyn's "America Alone") and get to bed early.

That's because the reports are based on exit polls which have been suffering from greatly increasing amounts of sampling error over the past few elections. The amount of error in the Kerry v. Bush exit polls in 04 was LAUGHABLE yet for some reason there are those who still believe in their accuracy.
