I agree. I don’t know what the deal is with Britt tonight. Fox has gone down the tubes in the last several weeks. I saw him call Ohio with 3% reporting and I nearly had a heart attack. Then, “Whoops!”

I wont turn that station on until Glenn Beck shows up.

From what I’m reading, it’s like armature hour over there.

Is Fox TRYING to make the case that exit polls are NOT to be trusted??? If so, they’re doing a bang up job!!!

They just reinstated the prediction... Ohio for Obama, according to Brit Hume.

Going to be a landslide in the electoral college. Catastrophic. I am very fearful for the future but there is no point in being full of hate and vitriol. As Nixon said, when you do that you only destroy yourself. They can’t blame Bush anymore now. Up to them to govern and when they fail we can hope the electoral fortunes shift next time.

Good grief. It was simply an error in their new technology, or a human error caused by lack of experience with that technology. They are trotting out new systems to try to compete with CNN, and apparently it wasn’t tested enough.

It was absolutelty clear when it happened that Hume was surprised to see a check mark next to Obama for Ohio, and he was immediately told that it was a mistake.

I think it’s going to be a very turbulent period.

They just called it for real. VA, NC, and FL are “too close to call”. Even if McCain holds on to all three of those other states, barring a miracle, this thing is over.

God help us all....

Fox just called Ohio for Obambi again. If that holds, it’s over, folks. We are headed into the Dark Ages. I have just moved all of my 401K contributions to cash (money market), as stocks and bonds are going to fall like rocks before the end of the year as investors withdraw because of Obambi’s promise to raise business taxes in the midst of a recession.
