Guest MikeSC Report post Posted November 3, 2004 I still don't get why they haven't called FL for Bush yet. -=Mike Like Begala said (I know it's Begala, but anyway) - there's hundreds of thousands of absantee ballots Florida wasn't expecting. He projected they may take until Thursday (the deadline) to count them all. By all accounts (since you get the ballots through parties), Bush has a roughly 100,000 - 150,000 vote advantage with absentee. -=Mike and CNN just said a Florida judge ordered the absentee ballots will *not* be counted tonight due to republican challenges BUT...by all accounts, absentees will go Republican (they ALWAYS do) and will do so rather overwhelmingly. -=Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

teke184 0 Report post Posted November 3, 2004 It might be early but If Kerry fails to nab this election and that's at the moment in jeopardy. How quickly will the Dems redesign their program again and how long will it take for them to secure their 2008 "fore front"? and whom would it be. The Dems would immediately put Hillary Clinton up as their top candidate in 2008, although they're going to go through some SERIOUS tantrums due to losing the Presidential race again as well as losing ground in the Senate, including the likely loss of Minority Leader Tom Daschle of South Dakota. Considering Hillary's skeletons (both exposed and hidden), I don't think she'll make it through the 2008 primaries. Someone's going to bring up her questionable law practices (Whitewater, etc.) as well as some personal issues she has. (Example- I hear that one of Hillary's "friends" got quite a few promotions in the military for reasons other than her merits) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MikeSC Report post Posted November 3, 2004 For what it's worth, if Drudge's map is right and the leaning states go as they presently are, Bush has already won the election. With room to spare. -=Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

New Haaampshaaah is only slightly clsoer than it was in 2000... Bush won by about 3000 at the time. It's still a bigger gap than New Mexico was, though, as New Mexico was about a 350 vote difference.

Vyce 0 Report post Posted November 3, 2004 So is it clear to everyone else that Kerry NEEDS Ohio to survive here? He MUST take either Ohio or Florida. Florida does NOT look good for him. Neither does OH, really, but he has a chance. He still needs to win big by taking other states, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
