In this scenario, Bush won't have enough electoral votes to win, so the election will go to Congress. And Then Bush will dominate. This scenario would be cool because the liberals would be so upset to find out their votes don't count once again.

Look up the Massachussets margin and compare it to Gore's in 2000. Talk about a vote of no-confidence. More Massachussets people voted for Gore than plan to vote for sKerry.

Ya sure could detect the glee in the hostweenies post today.  Reads as though he's looking forward to a court fight in the aftermath.

I'm not worried.  Florida will go for Bush I am sure of that.

I think you will see big movement in the polls the last ten days before the election.  Let Stolen Honor sink in for a few days.

When do you suppose Rove is going to come out with his one or two surprises??

I think Stolen Honor was one, so what could be the other??

It's going to be a long two and a half weeks.

Come on Iowa, didn't you hear Kerry hates corn?

And a message for New Hampshire--Kerry doesn't eat maple syrup.  He thinks it's too "ethnic".

I don't know if this has been posted before but it's kind of a fun little tool.  It's the electoral Calculator.  I come up with two scenarios

Bush 299 Kerry 239 or
Bush 290 Kerry 248

It would be interesting to see what SGatr15 comes up with when giving 45 states to Bush.

Most of the polls showing Kerry ahead in states that you ask "WTF?" are by Strategic Vision and American Research Group - these are NOT good polling groups and some are a bit liberal leaning.

Note, however, that states where Kerry is tied or barely ahead that he SHOULD be very much ahead are by Zogby and Gallup.

I got 283 to 255. I gues you gave Iowa to Bush.  I wanted to be a spoil-sport, so I threw it to Kerry.
Bush will win Florida. If he can win EITHER PA or OH, we win.

Kerry has to take Florida. Even if he wins BOTH PA and OH (which isn't very likely since Bush is up in OH), Kerry would still need IA to win. I just don't see us losing this one.

Not necessarily... the 257 – 243 score doesn't appear to include EVs of states that are considered "tied."  In other words, SOMEONE is going to win Florida and Iowa (ignoring for a moment that if it's close, lawsuits will pour in contesting the results).

Anyway, the scenario in which the decision would go to Congress is if it is an exact tie.  An article yesterday brought up the possibility of us having a Bush/Edwards or Kerry/Cheney administration, depending on what the election does to the makeup of Congress (since the president would be chosen by the House, and the VP would be chosen by the Senate).

Now THIS is encouraging!

Polls

Take a look at Newsweek! If both their polls are accurate, talk about a SWING!

It's probably not that big, but the TREND is!


ETA: Wow. Look at the trend of who won polls vs. who lost. Bush is cleaning house. If that holds or improves (as it should as the debate glow dies down and the Swifties resume fire), then maybe, just maybe, Sgt will be right!

ETAA: I'm just not with it today. This cold is killing me. The data I posted is the data that generated HeavyMetal's graphs. Duh....

that scenario shows ties though, someone will win the electoral college.  and that person will be President George W Bush with at least 300 EVs

polling means shit

Voter turnout is the key

if the minorities get out and vote Bush could be in trouble.
Answering ur phone and being polled or any other way they poll is
alot easier than actually getting out to vote.

If there is not a big turnout in Fl, Mi, Pa, Oh  Bush wins in a land slide

Didn't that eloectoral vote site used to have a function that tracked the trends and then projected the outcome, as opposed to simply showing the most recent polling data?  I remember clicking it, and it always had Bush over 300.  But the guy who ran the site said b/c of the methodology, it really wouldn't men much until October.  Well, now its October, and I guess he took it off the site.

No shit!  I hate to see this state tainted with blue.  It's the Kalifornication factor.  75% of the state's population is in Clark County (Las Vegas) and the majority of those people are recent immigrants (or is it escapees?) from the PRK.

Newsweek has released a poll that has Bush up 50% to 44% over Kerry.

I think the comments on Cheneys daughter are starting to erode kerry support.

I think we might see some developments early next week on the Rove suprises.
