    why does cbs have FLA but nbc doesn't? did cbs jump the gun or is everyone else just being amazingly cautious b/c it's florida.


    also, was the gay marriage thing just to get conservatives out to the polls or did states really consider it that important?

    Having listened to Barak Obama,

    I am hopeful he will be THE ONE. Assuming he doesn't do anything outrageously stupid, Replublicans will be very afraid of him.

    Harvard law review, charismatic, modest and well spoken. He will be president one day soon.

    Attacking him will be political suicide.

    I think young voters did show up, but then again I could be proven wrong with numbers. I believe the perception of more young voters automatically translating to the democratic vote seems to have been proven wrong...

    I guess many were a bit surprised because an unprecedented amount of money, time and organized effort from various sources was made targeting the young voter to vote.

    if this thing ties, that would just be stupid. lets just go w/ co-presidents so less people will be completely pissed off and everyone will just be half-pissed off.

    Seems like only the conservatives are posting. Have the rest decided it's over?

    We at least need to give Sam some credit for showing the stones to come in here and post when things are looking bad for his candidate.

    Well, he was a bad candidate. Smart man, great resume, but a bad candidate.

    The opposite of his rival, IMO.

    My only solace to this whole disaster is I'll benefit more from the GWB tax cuts than most Republicans.
