[At 193 EV....]

How close is Bush? 86 votes, right? If he wins FLA, that number is down to 59. I think he has 59 votes without Ohio, but I could be wrong.

[Wow, the idiocy of my fellow Pennsylvanians]

Shocks even me.

 

Unbelievable. Though the polls are STILL open in the local area.

[HOW ARE THEY CALLING NJ FOR KERRY?]

And Delaware and Oklahoma, neither of which is reporting much of anything yet.  And the Illinois projection is so far based almost exclusively on Cook county.

 

Really...I'm pissed at the coverage.  I'd hoped they'd have learned the risk of being premature back in 2000.  Calling OK for Bush with 2% of the returns in is a load of crap.

No schitt....

 

The partisanship in the media is ridiculous.

[HOW ARE THEY CALLING NJ FOR KERRY?]

His lead is less than 1%. It took them an hour to call NC and VA even tho bush had a double-digit lead.

 

If they're honest about it, NJ should come off the board.

Exactly.  Think of them as you vote for anybody but Bush.  After all, he’s the guy that lied and used scare tactics in order to get approval to send them over there.

Good call. That's what I did....cuz I live in PA.

[Guys, it's over...]

I voted at 7:30 AM this morning. Everyone I know is voting for Bush except my gf. My mom even is (everyone who knows that story should be shocked), but they despise LIBERALS.

I have the same kind of anecdotal evidence.

 

Everyone in mine and my wife's family is voting bush. Except for my father-in law, the wife's sister and her husband. That's it.

 

It's a margin of 14-3 in my family. And I'm willing to wager it's similar across the country.

[Round Two Of Exit Polls]

The exits that have been reported so far are absoulte BS. For example, the sampling is 59% Women vs. 41% Male. To any Bush supporter who is even the slightest bit worried -- SUCK IT UP AND GOTV!!!! This is going to be a close election and we knew last night it would be that way. You want it to be a landslide for Bush and melt when it isn't. Again, SUCK IT UP, go vote, and get your family, friends and neighbors out to vote.

 

The Republican GOTV machine is hitting on all cylinders and this was a calulated move to derail it by the DNC and main-street-media. The DNC simply can not handle the thought of losing an election with high voter turnout. If you let this demoralize you then they win and you'll feel like a fool tomorrow. Think of the guys over in Iraq laying their a$$ on the line and expecting you to pull through for them. Get your minds back in the freaking game and keep the morale high. Bush will win if you do.

These nellies that are worried just don't get it. Bush is going to win this election.

hmmm....seems as though that 20 point gap's closing a bit, huh?

 

[This just in from NRO....]

This from NRO's Jonah Goldberg

THOSE BOGUS NUMBERS [Jonah Goldberg]

 

Okay. I've now got a third source. Here's what I feel comfortable saying. Those numbers with Kerry leading by 20 in PA were definitely from the Kerry campaign. Whether the represented an early voting tally or just a totally non-serious collection of tallies from various dudes with clipboards is unclear. But they are entirely bogus for the purposes of understanding what's going on today.

 

As for what is going on today. Florida seems to be looking ok but tight. Still too close to call in Ohio. Etc. When I have something more concrete, I'll let ya know.

[Round One Of Exit Polls Out]

I wish the smaller parties would come up with their own slate of candidates rather then just picking reps and dems for most spots.

Libertarians had 6 candidates on the ticket this year in my district. The only ones who didn't get my vote were Badnarik and Campagna.

even tho i no longer live in pa anymore, but i did spend 23 years there and my parents still live there (erie).  and as much as it sickens me to do so, i have to agree with tbone

You mullet. You live in CT. You know NOTHING about PA anymore.

Just wondering because I hope Badnarik does really well, even though I decided a month ago to fill out my absentee ballot for Bush.

Registered Libertarian here.

 

Voted Bush for Pres and Lib for all available slots.

[I Officially Endorse....]

I want no part of Rudy or McCain if I'm a republican. I would rather have a Steve Forbes or Jack Kemp or even A dark horse like PAt Toomey...a real free-marketeer.

[Guys, it's over...]

Didn't Reagan run up record deficits during his tenure?

Didn't Bush just pour 200 billion dollars into a military project?

 

Sorry, but I'm still failing to see any appreciable difference here.

97346[/snapback]

 

Yes, but on things the gov't is SUPPOSED to spend money on: Military, etc...

 

He funded a war, not a buildup.

It's gonna be so fun for me to see that little picture of PA turn red tonight

[Guys, it's over...]

A rare agreement from me. Bush is a big government, big-spending, deficit ignoring Socialist. He's only a Republican because that's who endorsed him. If he was a Democrat, the Republicans would skewer him for his fiscal irresponsibility.

 

I would LOVE nothing more than a Bush loss, and for the Conservatives to demand something better from their reps. Do you think McCain/Guiliani would lose to John friggin' Kerry? You guys can do better than Bush.

97336[/snapback]

 

 

YOU GUYS? I'm a registered Libertarian. Voted lib for everything BUT president. Only because the thought of John Kerry as president terrifies me, not that I'm 100% a Bush man.

Even YOU have to know there's no way Kerry carries PA by 20.

 

It will not happen.

[According to Gallup latest]

I just checked MSNBC, Fox, and CNN and none of them are mentioning exit polls or makign predictions...so at least THEY are calling it a day yet...

EXACTLY, these are all numbers reported on BLOGS. BLOGS!!!

 

How anyone can believe the numbers coming from a BLOG is beyond me, but...

 

On a side note, I think the networks are frothing at the mouth to put this stevestojan out there, but are so wary of being burned again....

[Guys, it's over...]

Pardon a thick-headed question from a political neophyte, but how exactly are Reagan and BushII so radically different?

97318[/snapback]

 

Hugley. Bush is a big spending "conservative"

 

Reagan had the balls to snip the dead weight from the gov't and shift it to the military.

[Guys, it's over...]

Not to mention that the 'Main Steam Media' have shown themselves to be quite biased in trying to show 'exit polls' that paint their chosen boy as the winner (I'll leave you to figure out who that is, he usually has a -D next to his name) to try and keep people away from the polls thinking their vote will no longer count.

97302[/snapback]

 

 

I cannot say this enough:

 

THERE IS NO WAY KERRY WINS PA BY 20.

 

It will not happen. The Dems could barely elect a Dem to the mayorship of Philly, and they're gonna beat Bush by 20%?

 

I laugh in their general direction.
