2. .
Really, no joke?
After 2004, I don't want to get my hopes up. At least NJ and OH sound right.
Arizona really close.
I'd be ok with that result.

14. Nope
51-49 Dems leading. Same as this blog map prediction

Missouri and Tennessee appear to be tossups. It looks like it would be difficult for Dems to do any worse than a tie for the Senate.

5. Big differences.
Too big for a snatch to be considered good. Be very careful about declaring victory and watch even CLOSER for fraud now.

7. Great figures .. exit polls are very accurate but
not when voting is manipulated as in 2000 and 2004.

9. please dont celebrate....
remember the exit polls from Ohio and Florida on 2004 election night.

instead of cheering, go to the polling places and make sure other's votes count.

16. Good idea
Get everyone out to vote. Even in "safe" states a diebold or other company payoff could lead to the loss of MANY MANY votes.

Do not let crime win VOTE don't celebrate until they are safely in congress overturning measures such as the nazi patriot act.

Good luck freedom loving americans! The high turnout may have overwelmed the fraud but the vote is still young and the chances of fraud are great.

20. rove's masters aren't going to allow both houses to go democrat.
the pollsters revealed enough dissatisfaction where they pretty much have to give up the House. but they'll never give up the senate.

the fix is in, folks. has been all along.

every day we get closer to needing the pitchforks and machetes and marching to washington.

26. "we" got burned by SOMETHING in '04, all right
of course, exit polls are considered a gold standard for detecting election fraud in every other country on the planet, but the same rules don't seem to apply here...

43. They might not have stolen it this time,
but still they managed to create the impression that Dems are only marginally more popular then Repubs.

It seemed like some of these were going to be way off again, until VA and MO turned around in the late hours of counting.
