TV and Cable Newsrooms are trying to set it up again.
"Polls to close to call"
"Situation in Iraq bad"
ETC
Where are the REAL questions like
"Kerry, why do you refuse to sign Form 180?"
great post
Calling Florida early also probably cost the president votes here in the West Coast. I heard that people working phone banks that night got up and left once they heard Florida was put in the Gore column.
Lesson to be learnt here, don't listen to the media, go vote, it's not necessarily over because the media says so.
Cool it. We all know who won the last election.
"We all know who won the last election."
This is for the lurkers and dims
The dims still think Bush lost in '00
So does the media
Absolutely. All Bush supporters everywhere need to vote no matter what.
Yeah, but--why are these conservatives in the panhandle so silly as to stay home and NOT VOTE based on the false projections of the Alphabet Networks?
Hope they don't get fooled so easily this time around.
Bump!
I am really annoyed at least one poll today shows the bad guys up 1 in FL. What is wrong with people down there? I hope someone has more encouraging news from FL.
However, if some of these other polls are right, and Bush takes MI, MN, WI, IA, and NM he can actually win this without FL _or_ OH. That will be extremely tough though.
It also costs Bush votes in New Mexico and a number of other states that could have gone to Bush had the MSM not intentionally intervened. This time, everyone must vote regardless of what the MSM claims to be the "projected outcome". Only real votes matter.
BTTT!!!!!!
I actually know of people who were on the interstate on their way to vote after leaving work when the local radio stations were calling Gore the declared winner almost an hour before the polls closed. They turned around and went home not bothering to vote because of the news cast. They were so mad to find out it had been called wrong and if they hadn't listened Bush would have won by a good margin. Lesson learned...Vote regardless of what you hear.
The MSM is currently putting out the 'idea' that there should be no electoral college. Getting people accustomed to the thought.
With the early voting this year, this will be less of an impact than in 2000. However, people still need to vote as long as the polls are open on November 2nd, regardless of what the networks, including Fox and Paula Zahn, are saying.
that picture reminds me of the BIG RED LETTERS "LIARS" that they had over the pictures of the Swift Boat Vets when that girl was narrating it on the Sinclair piece of crap the other night..everytime they showed one of their ads, it would have "liar" or "LIARS" in big red letters, supposedly showing the "Kerry side"...of the SBV's... as if THEM saying it, made it so.....SOB's
The media simply will not call the RED states. Count on it.
I'm not holding out any hope for someone who thinks Bush lost four years ago.
