You’re living in a dream world! Middle America will be resoundingly Bush’s. And the weapons story did NOT live on to another day. It was defeated within one news cycle, and it laid bare the bias of major media. Don’t worry…CBS will fake up some new documents tonight to help you guys out. ;-)

Love ya!

As an outsider a few thousand kilometers/miles from the USA I hope I can make an unbiased comment.
Many Americans don’t know that polls in several countries show 80% support for Kerry and only 20% for Bush. Although of course it will not be that great a landslide for Kerry. Most of us non-Americans cannot understand why Bush seems so popular with so many Americans.

The Talent Show weighs in with a more confident projection than Mr. Drum offered in a post below…

…and speaking of getting into the game, I’ll jump into the deep end of the projections pool with this one.

Alright…if Florida elects John Kerry, I’ll stop hating it. The ad looks good. And I sure hope you’re right, cause if you’re right, November 3rd is gonna be the sweetest fucking day ever.

Another reason to take the polls with a grain of salt: there are 170 million cell phones in the US. 5% of those are people who use their cell phone as their only phone, i.e., no land line. That’s 11.9 MILLION people who could not be reached by telephone polls, which only call land lines.

Speaking of Florida, this campaign ad is gonna put Kerry over the top. It's devastating to Bush.

I’m no fan of Florida, but I think Bush alienating the Cuban community by imposing new limitations on family visits is gonna cost him.

I agree on everywhere except Florida. Nothing good can come from that God-Forsaken Pit.

Osama Bin Ladan just weighed in via Al Jazerra.
Bush White House mum. Was this Bib Laden saying.” Nah, Nah, Nahnahnah, I’m still here.” to Bush

I agree with the landslide. Everything is falling in to place. We have the huge number of early voters, and new voters, and we can be sure that the level of apathy compared to the 2000 election is far lower. The large number newspaper endorsements for Kerry, including conservative papers, are also a good indicator.

Oh, I too like the background image for your results graphic. :)
