agreed

For Christ's sakes, do you people not know when I'm joking?

 

[pax]

MI, MN, NV, WI, and NH continue to look promising.

 

[pax]

All this math makes my head hurt.

 

[learn2kneel]

Colorado has been called and 80% of Ohio has been counted....if bush wins ohio its over
Bush - 2,234,524 (51%) Kerry - 2,104,255
(48%)

 

[DaveC]

Kerry is closing the gap in Ohio.

Bush's lead is now only 110,000.

 

[hiphop]

Ohio is really tending towards Bush.

Could be that it´s done. Media aren´t in yet...

Until now, no single state has changed compared to 2000. 4 years ago, Ohio was red.

 

[BVS]

NBC just annouced Kerry has the lead by 130,000 in Ohio...

 

[pax]

Whoa, that was a fast turnaround on Ohio! Dammit, now I can't go to bed!

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

NBC just annouced Kerry has the lead by 130,000 in Ohio...

you sure about that... seeing as i'm watching nbc and i didn't see that... in fact, barrack obama is on nbc, and chris matthews is still on msnbc. i think you have your numbers reversed

 

[BVS]

you sure about that... seeing as i'm watching nbc and i didn't see that...

That's what I just heard...could be wrong

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

with 83% reporting bush still holds a 130,000+ vote lead in ohio... you had your numbers reversed

 

[pax]

Hey, Kucinich will be keeping his seat in OH! I love that little man.

OH...MSNBC is still showing a Bush lead, but Kerry is coming up fast and strong as urban votes are coming in last. Kerry could still pull it out.

 

[BVS]

you sure about that... seeing as i'm watching nbc and i didn't see that... in fact, barrack obama is on nbc, and chris matthews is still on msnbc. i think you have your numbers reversed

In fact they even said that Dems are looking for a 200,000 lead to feel safe.

 

[learn2kneel]

Bush Wins.... fox news just called ohio

 

[DaveC]

Fox news...no shit.

 

[BVS]

I guess the guest they had speaking had it wrong.

 

[pax]

I don't buy Fox calling Ohio. It's still too close. Counts still coming in from Ohio are urban precincts where Kerry will fare well.

 

[DaveC]

Uhh... the Fox website still has Ohio too close to call.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

oh lord not fox news... after all they are run by satan

oh wait... they're using actuall numbers to make their predictions and not just making it up... ohhhh yeah

 

[BVS]

Bush Wins.... fox news just called ohio

There are people still in lines. Some 13 hours!!!

Let's go Cleveland!!!

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

with 83% reporting and bush still with a 137,000+ vote lead, kerry would need a miracle to pull out ohio.

 

[DaveC]

oh lord not fox news... after all they are run by satan

oh wait... they're using actuall numbers to make their predictions and not just making it up... ohhhh yeah

They're calling states separated by only a couple thousand votes with still over 15% of precincts to report...that's irresponsible.

They called NH already, and the gap is only 6,000 votes.

 

[learn2kneel]

fox's website just added the update - 267-210 (not including alaska)

 

[pax]

It IS irresponsible to call it when a lot of the votes left to come in could swing it back the other way.

2000 redux.

 

[BVS]

fox's website just added the update - 267-210 (not including alaska)

Yeah maybe you should quit depending on them.

 

[pax]

Kerry is out front by 11,000 in NH according to MSNBC, so if it's called for anyone, it should be for Kerry. Not that it should be, being that close...but if it were...

 

[A_Wanderer]

Oh well, foxnews.com shows Ohio in red territory which would be 267, then with Alaska alone it makes 270. I will wait before going on that though, it still feels nice.

 

[Headache in a Suitcase]

bush now has a 19,000 vote lead with 79% reporting in new mexico... add ohio and alaska to that total...

 

[pax]

Ohio is still in play, geniuses!
