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 remember being somewhat confident until the DUI thing broke and virtually all of the polls except Rasmussen showed a Gore surge at the end. I also remember the state by state maps showing a much closer race than the national polls even before the DUI thing broke, and this fact also had me on edge. This year, the EC map has been better for Bush most of the year. Unquestionably he is in much better shape to win this time, but it all comes down to improving their GOTV operation from four years ago. Given how bad it was, this will be easy, and they have already invested millions of dollars and hundreds of thousands of volunteers into the effort. So, I am cautiously optimistic, and even beginning to see signs that Bush may win by more than the 5-6 points that I currently think he will win by.

I was confident in 2000 until election day morning when I went to the polls and saw all the senior citizens crowded around the democrat committee man outside the polls
I really got worried and rightly so as it turned out

Yea and then came 9/11, this time is different IMHO.

i wonder how much fraud was alredy built into the 2000 election. Bush was on top going in and we all know what happened...
