Let's hope so...LOL.

The fact that Rove admits the GOP is behind in early voting but ahead in absentee ballots lends some credibility to the claim. Of course, this may be just another example of Rove The Manipulative Genius leading others into erroneous conclusions...

I early voted in Texas two weeks ago. I estimate that 80% of those in line with me that day were rabid hot dog eating Michael Moore groupies. Since my area consistently votes Republican by a 30% margin, I concluded that I was witnessing those Democrats who have been waiting since 2000 to cast their vote against Bush.

Heck yeah, they were motivated and out in force. The problem for them is that they're greatly outnumbered in the long run.

Well there would be a lot of military absentee ballots there wouldn't there? We figure they would be mostly Bush.
