First whole states close in 12 minutes.

[Tuxedo]

Thus far no state from 2004 has flipped, correct?

[silent_jonny]

CB!! You're a sight for sore eyes! Great to see you.

I know, amazing isn’t it? It’s all based on what they “project” it’s going to be. They have no idea.

I know ... why do they have to project anything right now. Just count all the votes first.

Acorn/LaRazza/etc. ?

We just talked to our son and wife in PA. The polls were just closing. He said all the rural parts are pubbies. I asked them if they thought the coal/electricity comments had any impact. They said not where they are - more people were upset about the Murtha comments.

I don’t believe a minute that you absolutely knew New Hampshire would not go to McCain. Also Pennsylvania was touted here all week and guaranteed by FREEPERS that McCain would take it but he did not!!! So I disagree with your tall tale.

Pennsylvania is largely uncounted, my friend. I know better than to listen to projections as they are often wrong in key states.

I’m trying to save you from looking foolish.

The GOP is going to be in the wilderness for a few years, but they will roar back with a vengeance in 2010.

...and there is one big failure to blame for this: George W(orse) Bush!

[cherry]

will you please just go away...you and your cohorts in negativity.....Pa just closed not 20 minutes ago...

just go....we don't need your bunch here tonite....

[nutmeg]

See you at CPAC?

Hey, Lisa! Not sure. A bunch of us are awaiting the outcome of this election. Not sure it would be worth going to if we end up with Obama in the White House and a 'RAT majority Congress.

Many of us are VERY ticked off at the ACU for drastically raising the price of the CPAC Diamond Package... something like a 64% hike.

Early discount ends on Friday, November 7... I'll let you know if we're going. :o)

Do you think Chris Shays will win?

[mwl8787]

people

wake up

the MSM is rushing these calls to hurt McCain and Senate GOP candidates in western time zones

pray for miracle in IN because Gary hasn’t come in yet - we need to get the presidential race closer - McCain is underperforming

This is what happens when the GOP candidate loses the tax cut argument.

[chad_in_georgia]

Yeah, the country appears to be sending us packing. I just hope we can make some inroads in 2010.

[GQuagmire]

Axelrod on CNN. Doesn’t sound confident at all. Looks like someone peed in his Cheerios

[txmissy]

Ditto that.

[waxer1]

This is all wrong.

Looks like ACORN did their job well.

[Salvation]

OK, SC called for McCain by FoxNews.com

[Doofer]

PUMA? My ass. I always said BS. THey’re a non-factor I agree, they never had any numbers. Anytime we are counting on democrats (current or former) we're screwed.

I went to their online site yesterday and posting activity was minimul. In other words the so called PUMA Effect was all hype in my opinion.

[Proud 2BeTexan]

How in the world can they call PA when no votes have been counted??
