Fox and CNN jump on CBS' bandwagon to predict a Kerry win.

CNN just called Hawaii for Kerry.

Interesting.

NM, IA and NV are Bush.

WI could be just as important as OH - assuming OH still in play.

Laurence Tribe on CNN: 90% of the provisional ballots in Ohio in 2000 were counted.

Let me guess. The black vote counters will be intimidated by the white security guards handling the ballots. And Atrios will call "foul"

Bush wins the popular. He wins the electoral.

When will the left finally move to France?

I have to hand it to the GOP on the popular vote win. THAT is an achievement.

I also have to admit, I see no dirty tricks so far. From what I've seen from various sources, this thing was done fair and square.

Where do we Libertarian folk go? Do I get a compound somewhere to hide from those Jesus Loons you guys keep placating? Can you spare a fire and brimstone umbrella?

"Chief Justice Clarence Thomas." Man, thats like saying "Adolph Hitler sits at the right hand of the Lord" or "Of course I enjoy child fucking." Its one of those collections of words which should never be uttered anywhere, anytime.

Shit, Slave, sometimes, I think you're just in this to see how absurd it can get. "If they get full control of all arms of govt, how crazy will theey go???" Well, I guess we get to see.

Bush is up 125K with 4% remaining to come in. That is about 250,000 plus absentee and provisional.

Bush is up 120,000 with 3% remaining

I can't see Kerry winning NM unless there are a ton of provisional ballots there, though they do have a very liberal standard for those.

IA could go either way, but it doesn't matter.

NV is not a done deal -- Bush is leading, but most of the precincts still out are in Clark County, where Kerry is leading by a decent margin.

Kerry is up 19,000 votes with 88% of the precincts reported in WI (results here), and I don't see outstanding counties where Bush is going to pick up that many votes.

It all comes back to Ohio.

Actually, it was a stupid thing for the demo judges to push the [same sex marriage] issue. The issue is a big time loser for the demo's.

I wasn't thinking of it from a political perspective. I believe that making a big political issue about "protecting traditional marriage" aka banning gay marriage is counterproductive to what should be the evangelical Christian's main focus -- winning others to Christ.

But from a political perspective, you are correct that it hurt the Dems. It was another moral issue to use to hook homophobic voters that might not be mobilized by the abortion issue.

You go to the Libertarian party and try to reform it to a party that actually has a chance. Get rid of the anarchists in the Libertarian party. We need some regulation to protect the environment and some other areas, too. The Libertarian party would be viable in this country if they would get rid of the anarchists.
