This is getting intriguing.

First the Kerry Spot and now KJL---both of whom have recently begun posting "communications" with Bush campaign insiders---sending very confident signals this final weekend.

Compare that GOP confidence to the Kerry campaing insider's "leak" to an AP reporter today (Ron Fornier) saying their internal polls showed a Bush lead and a general momentum in Bush's direction. Why would a campaign operative leak such a story?

I love the implications of this. Is there a groundswell for Bush running beneath the radar of national polls?

Tell me what you think.

Sigh, I would be more confident if Kerry didn't have 100,000 lawyers to trump all our great volunteers.
I am in a funk. I'm always like this the last week-end before hand. In my head I know the President will win, the rats scare me though. Don't trust them to obey the laws.

I don't know whether to stay up election night and watch the results, or hide myself away for a day or two and wait for the first dope who opens their mouth to say "Hey- how about that election huh?!"

Not sure what to think of this. On face value, things look good.

But, could this be just another way for the libs to motivate their constituents into voting?

"Bush/Cheney have the momentum and will win unless you get out and vote!"

I think the "lawsuits galore" will be the dog that doesn't bark, at least not as loudly as some peopel think. The public outcry will be too much--Kerry will back down, confining his legal fights to a few brushfires.

Check elsewhere on NROnline--Kerry Spot, Battleground AND The Corner. I liked the headline "The election is over". Like it or not, it is over, and Bush wins. When you're cajoling people with "Wake up!" you're a loser. Kerry's already lost; we just don't know it yet.

I hope you are right about the win and wrong about the lawyers...

In Florida alone—on Friday alone—GOP officials say volunteers knocked on 170,000 doors and made 200,000 calls. Though E Day they expect those numbers to hit 17,000 volunteers will 800,000 doors and 1.2 million calls.

Those of you manning the phones and knocking on doors are WONDERFUL.

I sure appreciated the call I received the other day here in Arizona and made sure to thank the volunteer who called for the work he was doing.

In 2000, Bush internals looked so good the last week, he actually stopped campaigning.

I get the sense that the Kerry/NY Times/60 Minutes fiasco has legs, especially when you consider that Bush got his best numbers when the natl guard forgeries came to light.

America doesn't like a false smear, especially when it involves the military.

I think it might be 2000 flashbacks for me. I remember how everybody here was so excited about Scott Rasmussen's numbers. We took them at gospel. This is not over until it's over. We need to take to the streets the minutes the democrats try to cheat again. They weren't prepared last time and they lost. This time they have a whole strategy based on cheating.

Same here.. I know legitimately President Bush will win.I'm afraid the voting fraud will make all things different. I just keep praying. After this election I'm giving up, news, politics, etc, and I am gonna read all the books I have in the house that need my attention. (not to mention the housework) hehe

I remember how comfortable folks were before 2000. I think a lot of us do. Then during election day interviews, suddenly the pollsters who had been so confident about a Bush lead started hedging big time and making any kind of Bush win sound like a miracle. I hope we aren't seeing some kind of weird replay.

I got an e-mail from a footsoldier in Cleveland today. She hit 120 GOP and/or "undecided" houses: out of all the undecideds, only 10 were Kerry. Every other house she hit was Bush, plus MANY not on the GOP's list that had Bush signs!

Here's the best part: in May we called all the registered voters in the state and identified them (or they identified themselves) as Rs, Ds, or U's. Last week, they started calling back the U's. She told me her callers said the U's were breaking six-to-one in favor of Bush.
