One blog file until the finish...

1:05 a.m.

ABC, NBC goes with FOX, not surprising again. I'm not conceding anything...Ohio is going to be a difficult road ahead...As for the blog. I'm closing it up for the night.

12:49 p.m.

FOX strikes again. They call Ohio for Bush. No one else is going to buy it this time though. Hell CNN isn't even biting on Oregon...much less Ohio. Obviously Ohio is a big prize and it could get very very nasty...

12:40 p.m.

CNN calls Oregon for Kerry and Colorado for Bush. Me thinks CNN is really taken that whole "liberal slant" stigma too seriously.

12:39 p.m.

It's funny that even FOX is calling New Hampshire and Minnesota and Oregon for Kerry but CNN can't.

12:31 p.m.

Well Dennis Hastert's chins have apparently joined us.

12:26 p.m.

CNN calls Alaska to Bush, yeah I'm shocked...AP calls Oregon for Kerry...CNN is afraid, they are little bitches man... FOX News isn't this bad, hell they call Bush the winner three nights ago.

12:10 p.m.

CNN gives Florida to Bush and it was done comfortably and without counting absentees...See Jamie, don't ever vote absentee in this state....PLEASE get Karen Hughes off my screen. And GET RID OF THOSE STUPID MOUTHPIECES!....Even the flunkies in the Bush party think they are secret service men.

12:09 p.m.

CNN calls Arizona to Bush...So their scoreboard (and the only one I'm using) is 207-188. James Carville: "John Kerry is gonna have to draw an inside straight"...Truer words have never been spoken...


11:44 p.m.

According to a friend, ABC has called Florida for Bush and won't turn back...I think are correct. This obviously puts Kerry in dire straits. Ohio went from being a hope to an absolute must.

11:39 p.m.

I thought about something. In 2000 blue won the close senate races (Carnahan in Missouri, Stabenow in Washington) and lost the presidency. In 2004 the red team has taken all the close races thus far. Exit polls lie and Zogby (yeah, I cheated), who called around a 100-point Kerry win, might be a little off.


11:07 p.m.

I'm thinking that Florida is a lost hope for the blue. It might not be shady this time, Bush may have out and out won...There are a ton of absentee ballots here and I begged people not to do them because it's shady...No reckless projections by CNN...They are even being overly cautious in places like Oregon.

11:00 p.m.

Next group of updates in, Kerry wins the pot of gold in California and 55 votes, Bush wins Idaho. Scoreboard tightens considerably at 197-188 Bush. I expect Oregon, Washington and Hawaii to go blue in the next 60 minutes.

10:52 p.m.

Kerry grabs Pennsylvania and does it surprisingly easy. Now the eyes really shift to Ohio...C'mon guys...Think of Nixon, dead Kent State students...It could happen again and who's going to write the song?? Nickleback? Scoreboard 193-133 to Bush.


10:46 p.m.

New Hampshire inched a little closer to the center. Kerry is basically holding on by a thread there. Tom Daschle is in a fight for his political life. We're about 10 minutes away from some projections. I expected Pennsylvania to go blue between 11 and midnight. Florida might go red before 1 a.m.


10:35 p.m.

Kerry is smoking Bush in Pennsylvania, this could be a projection at 11 p.m. Could it bode well for the future, we'll see.

10:27 p.m.

I'm on this until 10:30...193-112...Both Wisconsin and Minnesota look like they are tilting blue. Kerry might've rode Russ Feingold's coattails and got a huge turnover...I've got a couple of insiders saying that Kerry has Wisconsin.

I'm just stalling until the 10:30 updates..

Still stalling...Maybe there aren't any...Oh well, if you haven't voted yet...Vote for Kerry.
