16. Don't they use exit polls? They must know things we don't
the local source I've been watching doesn't show results from 3 of our counties yet at all. Perhaps the MSMs think their polling there indicates Lieberman?

I've been wondering, too.

59. Just a man of his word about
caucusing with Dems.

He has been great on that issue really-saying if Connecticut is against the war they should not vote for joe, that it's simple. That can't say they did all they could about the war or future wars if they vote joe, that being use to him isn't enough, to use their heads...things like that.

He said it as well and simply and often as any tv pundit. I feel the same way. How could they vote joe?

39. Two Ohio races were called before ANY results were available
Strickland (Governor) was called ~ 7:30 and Brown was called a little after 8:00. NO results (not even absentee) were disclosed until after 9:00 PM because of the late closing of polls in 16 precincts in Ohio.

11. Projections aren't just based on returns.
They're based on statistics and exit polls.

I pray you're right, and they have to pull a Gore-Florida revocation of their call, but I'm not hopeful.

25. They were just so cautious about these things during the '04 elections
and now they're back to calling it early when we know the race is heated. Crazy pundits.

4% of the precincts reporting and 1000 votes isn't the end. Stop eating what the media feeds you.

22. It was called based upon "analysis of a sampling of voter comments" or
something absurd like that. This is a bullshit hardball tactic, trying to rattle the Lamont camp and throw 'us off. Lieberman has no integrity...don't expect his corporate supporters to.

32. Unfortunately, the exit polls don't look good
If you look at the exit polls on that link, Lieberthal wins most. :-( Hopefully, they and the msm are wrong!
