Poll Closing Times ^ | November 4, 2008 | xjcsa

[xjcsa]

First whole states close in 12 minutes.

[KavMan]

Actually to the guy NYCREP? that said PUMA’s don’t exist

The exit poll in PA had 19% of Clinton Democrats going to McCain.

[jerry557]

Yeah this is looking like a big blowout win for Democrats across the map.

I hope every single coal plant in PA closes...

[KansasGirl]

[Obama bad mouths Pennsylvanians (along with Murtha) and threatens to bankrupt the coal industry... and what do these idiots do??]

It really is pathetic and stupid. Do they have no pride?

[acw011]

I just don’t see how they can call Penn yet.. I quit watching.

[Citizen of the Savage Nation]

Not to agree or disagree, but all along I said the McCain campaign having to spend so much time and money in NC was a bad sign. I know FReepers there were giddy over having the chance to go see Sarah, but come on...missing the bigger picture that her going there AT ALL was not good.

[Marmolade]

I’m going to wait till actual poll numbers come in. Not taking the word of the exit polls.

[anniegetyourgun]

Probably more like 8 years - not sure we'll ever see an election of conservatives again in this country. In fact, with this guy in charge, we may never see another election in this nation.

And, remember - he's not just gonna change America - he's planning on changing the world.

From Luzerne County, PA...near Scranton...

Candidate             Votes      Percent 
OBAMA, BARACK (DEM)   6,753       61.7% 
MCCAIN, JOHN (REP)    4,061       37.1% 
NADER, RALPH (IND)       96        0.9% 
BARR, BOB (LIB)          30        0.3% 

OUCH! I hope not all of Luzerne County goes that way!

[Texas_shutterbug]

Why are you shutting Kristol off??

He is telling us the truth!

Are you crazy or just a fool!? He is telling Republicans across half the country not to even bother to vote because McCain has lost!

You sound like one of those nattering nabobs of negativism that the man from Maryland once railed against.

[Doofer]

You can’t handle the truth... So much for other FReepers saying the polls are all lies.... 2004... Deja vu all over again... Jeez

Let's not forget 2006...

[Fawn]

Mccain has to win Virginia, FLorida, Ohio and North Carolina. If Zero wins 2 of these it's all over.
Wish we could make FR work.....how we gonna win an election!!

[Robwin]

according to fox catholics in PA went 51/49 McCain. Catholics 49% for Obama. Damn them.

[Tuxedo]

We didn’t need PA if we hold the 2004 Bush states. Can afford to lose either CO or IA/NM. No more though.

[Salvation]

Fox calls PA for Obama

[silent_jonny]

(((CB)))

I don't know what we will do if we lose ... I can't think that way. Have to keep praying.

Lord Jesus, please have mercy on us. Hear our prayers and see our tears. Please deliver unto us a victory, Savior. Amen.

[CurlyBill]

We can win without PA, but we will need FL, OH, MO and every state that Bush won four years ago.

[ErnBatavia]

I’m glad I’m approaching age 62, and not 32....this scenario confirms that I’ll go “on the teat” at earliest opportunity. Barack can send me my monthly paycheck. Screw it.
